“I’m a Christian – I really don’t believe in UFOs.”

T stands for being nice. T stands for manners. T stands for being polite.

I was baptized by my father when I was 4 years old.

If I never make another dollar, I am proud. I did what I wanted to do.

Any man who doesn’t love his mama can’t be no friend of mine.

I’m proud to be an actor. See, as an actor, you live longer.

You might not have the things you want, but if you check carefully, you got all you need.

Rocky’ and ‘Rocky III’ were the best.

I’m a child of God first. Before I became a celebrity, I was baptized a Christian.

See, behind all my tough, rough exterior is basically a marshmallow, maybe a pussycat. But not a wimp!

They used to call me ‘Touchdown T.’ I remember in high school, we had homecoming, and I got in front of the pep rally, and I told them, ‘I’m going to run for three touchdowns.’ I ran for three touchdowns, kicked the extra point, and took myself out the game.

I’m tough when I have to be, tender when I should be. When you find a really tough guy, he’s not a predator. He doesn’t have to prove himself.

We had the wood shop, the machine shop, so I know about all that. I wanted to build buildings when I graduated from high school. I do know my way around that stuff.

All I ever wanted to do with my life was own a little house. I did that way back with ‘Rocky,’ so now everything I do is just icing on the cake.

Don’t be getting sloppy drunk and telling them dirty jokes.

I have a heart of gold, but I’m really a marshmallow in my heart.

My celebrity status allows me an opportunity, allows me a pulpit to preach and reach out to the people.
