“I’m a big believer that, in life, we can’t succeed in everything. Most times, we lose.”

Study people’s success stories hard. Study their failures even harder.

Remember the mind is your best muscle, BIG ARMS can move rocks, but BIG WORDS can move mountains. Ride the brain train for success.

At the very end, the one person who Rambo should kill, he doesn’t kill. He lets it live. Because you can’t kill that kind of hypocritical bureaucracy. It goes on forever.

Time is truly the great enemy. It’s not the great healer, it’s the great stealer.

Testosterone to me is so important for a sense of well-being when you get older.

I love being verbal in films.

Rambo isn’t violent. I see Rambo as a philanthropist.

Age is a state of old mind. It gets to a point where if you get old enough, you forget how old you are, and that’s the best thing. And then you walk around kind of like in a fog.

You’ve got to show your soul otherwise you’re just a piece of equipment.

That’s what Rocky is all about: pride, reputation, and not being another bum in the neighborhood.

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.

I’m a patriot of the heart.

Fight and push harder for what you believe in, you’d be surprised, you are much stronger than you think.

I believe it’s not about the product, it’s about the person–and how the product makes them feel.

Few, I believe, have had much affection for mankind, who did not first love their parents, their brothers, sisters, and even the domestic brutes, whom they first played with.

Surround yourself with people who believe in your dreams, encourage your ideas, support your ambitions, and bring out the best in you.

Hear you don’t believe I know enough to hold office. I wish you to understand that I am thinking about something or other most of the time.

Believe in your heart that you’re meant to live a life full of passion, purpose, magic and miracles.

Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen.
