More Sylvester Stallone quote about:
-
“Action is always seen as the bottom rung of thespian endeavour, that's just the way it is.”
-- 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.”
-- 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 -
“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 -
“I learned the real meaning of love. Love is absolute loyalty. People fade, looks fade, but loyalty never fades. You can depend so much on certain people, you can set your watch by them. And that's love, even if it doesn't seem very exciting.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“We do two things in life: We race the clock and everything is a struggle. One way or not, it's a metaphorical battle all of the time.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“I have great expectations for the future, because the past was highly overrated.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“Without the church it's like having a boat without the rudder. You think you can do it on your own and this may sound pedestrian or trite but I'll equate it to this: all my life I've been involved with exercise but no matter how much - and I know a great deal about the body - you need help. You need a trainer. You need to go to a gym and you need to have the expertise and the guidance of someone else. You cannot train yourself. I feel the same way about Christianity and what the church is. The church is the gym of the soul.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“Don't be gullible, use life before it uses you. Understand there are no free lunches, and for every action you take, there's a reaction.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“The idea that boxing lends itself to cinema so well is because it's usually a morality play - good against evil, insecurity and triumph, fear strikes out, so the audience can really get drawn into the drama of it. Also, it was sensual and very primal. I think subliminaly we do two things - life is a fight, life is a struggle and we understand that from our early, early, early ancestors, and life is a race.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“I believe there's an inner power that makes winners or losers. And the winners are the ones who really listen to the truth of their hearts.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“Some people maybe try to justify their laziness. You take out what you put in and the more I go to church and the more I turn myself over to the process of believing in Jesus, and to listening to his word and have him guide my hand I feel the pressure's off me.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“For every guy, there is an opportunity to be a lot better than he thought he could be. We can't all be the star of the team, but we can be a star in our life. That's where you set your goal.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“When you are young, you often think that the world spins around you. You think you can do anything, can take the world on your shoulders.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“Dreams cost nothing. They are free. The hard part is just keeping them going.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“I think there comes a time when you realize that you need God in your life, God's Word, and the spiritual guidance that only He can give.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“At the end of the day, 'Rocky' is a love story, and he could never have reached the final bell without Adrian.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“Once I stopped trying to always do everything my way, and once I asked for God's help, things have truly gone a different direction.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“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.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“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.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“To know that the odds are so high that only through the perishing of your life will the minions survive, that's love. That's heroism.”
-- Sylvester Stallone -
“In Philadelphia, there's no delineation, they address me as Rocky, for real. They'll say things like: "Rocky, do you like this coat?" Or: "Rock, say hi to my sister." Or: "Yo Rock, I know a great restaurant." There's no Sylvester. Even the Mayor goes: "It's good to have Rocky here today."”
-- Sylvester Stallone -

-- Sylvester Stallone -
