Quote

We follow a certain pattern, a maze, if you will, every day, tracing our steps into certain districts and neighborhoods and back home. So it's easy for people to relate to clichés. That's why comedy routines are based on mutual experiences of clichés.

Every champion was once a contender that refused to give up.

I respect a woman too much to marry her.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I really have very little aspirations about acting because I think that probably the best things have come and gone. I would like to focus on writing and directing. I love writing and directing even though writing can be incredibly painful and lonely. I get great satisfaction from doing it.

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.

The church is the gym of the soul.

Theater is like boxing - having the audience ringside. It's instant gratification. Or horrification.

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.'

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.

I'm not right wing, I'm not left wing. I love my country.

Every morning, I crawl out of bed. I sit there and think, 'Do I really need this?' And I drag myself to the gym in my garage. It's not fun. I hate it. I work out alone. Weights.

There are endless exercises for arms, but the basics are best-chinups and pushups.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I've kind of fashioned my life after a Slinky. Bend me in a million shapes, and eventually I'll spring back to what I originally was.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
Sometimes worst enemies like a Mohammed Ali and Joe Frazier that's what makes you fight so hard. Without them they never would have achieved greatness.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I'm a big believer that, in life, we can't succeed in everything. Most times, we lose.
Sylvester Stallone

I consider myself something of a raconteur. I have a rather audacious sense of humour.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I tell people diets don't work. And I don't care what they say. I have tried them all.
Sylvester Stallone
Image
I'd rather do something I love badly than to feel bad about not doing something I love.

When you're younger you just want to go out and make your mark in the world and doing that, quite often, the people that you love the most and the people you should be closest to suffer from estrangement. I'd be gone nine months a year, so how do you know anyone? When you come home you are a stranger.

Characters I've played, they used to impact my paintings, like 80 percent of the time, and especially when I was doing an action film.

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.
