I keep trying to tell people. I said, at 40, 45, you're at that crossroads. You really are there. And it's not like you can have gain without pain, but this is it. The days are - like when I wrote this whole thing about, in the beginning of my first magazine. I said, If you live to be 75 years old, that's 3,900 weekends. That's it.
Sylvester Stallone
Dreams cost nothing. They are free. The hard part is just keeping them going.
