It's funny because when Jason [Statham] was drowning I was filming with an iPhone. It may have been a bit insensitive but I just thought, you know what, this was a magic moment. And I couldn't help him anyway because I didn't want to drown.

Don't discuss your dreams. Pursue them!

I have all kinds of chest injuries I tore my vein during 'Rocky II' and had 60 stitches. If you've seen 'Rocky Balboa,' you'll know how bad they look.

I would never run for president.

You have to grab life by the throat and squeeze before it grabs you by your neck and breaks it. Own your destiny.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I have tons of regrets, but I think that's one of the reasons that push people to create things. Out of their angst, their regret, comes the best from artists, painters and writers.

Sometimes I write with music on, and if I'm in a good flow, I don't even hear it.

The phenomenal thing that happened to me is that I was able to create two memorable men: one is the ultimate optimist, Rocky, and then you have Rambo, the ultimate pessimist. You're going to always be remembered for them, no matter what you do.

Back there I could fly a gunship, I could drive a tank, I was in charge of million dollar equipment, back here I can't even hold a job PARKING CARS!

Theater is like boxing - having the audience ringside. It's instant gratification. Or horrification.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I have a lack of fear, whereas in the past the fear of failure was a powerful motivator. Anyway, I have great expectations for the future, but I just don't know if I'm the monarch of all I survey.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I never quite understood these actors - though I envy them sometimes - who can lie out for a year or two. I feel as though time is a real pressing issue, and I want to get as much work done in the time that I have left.

With a lot of comedians, one of their major attributes is that they look comedic, with a certain hangdog or manic expression. I look like the neighborhood bully. That doesn't elicit laughter.

Image
I think there's something about being a neophyte that's refreshing and hard to duplicate it brings about real innovation. Innovation usually comes about through blind ignorance.

I made some truly awful movies. 'Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot' was the worst. If you ever want someone to confess to murder just make him or her sit through that film. They will confess to anything after 15 minutes.
