More quotes by Sylvester Stallone
And if I look at my icebox, there's no way I'm sitting there looking like Gandhi. I mean, I don't have crickets in there and little green rice. No, I mean it's a pretty liberal icebox. It's all in there.

I thought I had reached a point in life where everything would be smooth. But it is not. It just gets more jagged and pitted and filled with turns that take you into the dark recesses of your mind. It never seems to get easy.

Sylvester Stallone
When you're scared, when you're hanging on, when life is hurting you, then you're going to see what you're really made of.
Sylvester Stallone
You cannot train yourself. I feel the same way about Christianity and about what the church is: The church is the gym of the soul.
Sylvester Stallone
I take rejection as someone blowing a bugle in my ear to wake me up and get going, rather than retreat.
Sylvester Stallone
The world meets nobody halfway. When you want something, you gotta take it.
Sylvester Stallone
I could start a war in 30 seconds. But some countries spend 100 years trying to find peace. Just like good manners, peace has to be learned.
Sylvester Stallone
Theater is like boxing - having the audience ringside. It's instant gratification. Or horrification.
Sylvester Stallone
Playing polo is like trying to play golf during an earthquake.
Sylvester Stallone
Early on everyone should do, every time they do a big film, they should do a little film. It really does keep you grounded.
Sylvester Stallone
Every rep I did on chin-ups, on squats with 500 pounds, I never said, to myself, 'Oh, my God, another rep.' I said, 'Yes, another rep, because that will make my dream turn into a reality.'
Sylvester Stallone
Every champion was once a contender that refused to give up.
Sylvester Stallone
I have great expectations for the future, because the past was highly overrated.
