More quotes by Sylvester Stallone
I never started out to be an action actor. I was an ensemble actor.
Sylvester Stallone
I'm a big believer that, in life, we can't succeed in everything. Most times, we lose.
Sylvester Stallone
I tell people diets don't work. And I don't care what they say. I have tried them all.
Sylvester Stallone
Life is more than sunglasses and hit movies. Reality - that's the main event.
Sylvester Stallone
If it's not broken, break it. That's how new discoveries are made. That's why everything that changes life is called a breakthrough.
Sylvester Stallone
Everyone has this conjecture that action films are somewhat less prestigious than dramatic films. Nothing could be further from the truth. I've done them both and this is hard and dangerous.
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
In the movies, I kill guys with an axe. In real life, I can't control a nine-year-old girl.
Sylvester Stallone
Theater is like boxing - having the audience ringside. It's instant gratification. Or horrification.
Sylvester Stallone
Remember the mind is your best muscle...BIG ARMS can move rocks, but BIG WORDS can move mountains... Ride the brain train for success.
Sylvester Stallone
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.
Sylvester Stallone
'Rocky' represents the optimistic side of life, and 'Rambo' represents purgatory.
Sylvester Stallone
You know what I think happened? After 'Rocky,' I was almost set up in the eyes of the media to make a flop.
Sylvester Stallone
Boxing is a great exercise ... as long as you can yell cut whenever you want to.
Sylvester Stallone
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.
Sylvester Stallone
There'll never be a 'Rocky IV.' You gotta call a halt.
Sylvester Stallone
Some actors are brilliant character guys. They submerge.
Sylvester Stallone
The world meets nobody halfway. When you want something, you gotta take it.
Sylvester Stallone
I wish my daughters would box. I'm so worried about the guys coming up to them. I would love them to be able to smack a guy right off a bar stool.
Sylvester Stallone
I wish I had thought of Velcro muscles myself. I didn't have to go to the gym for all those years, all the hours wedded to the iron game, as we call it.
