“Rocky’ represents the optimistic side of life, and ‘Rambo’ represents purgatory.”

I think everyone has a certain kind of formula in their life. When you deviate from that formula, you’re going to fail big or you’re gonna win big.

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.

I’m more focused and have a greater sense of challenge, because I constantly feel the weight of time.

Movies are a collective art. Art by proxy.

Every generation has to find their own heroes.

Love is absolute loyalty. People fade, looks fade, but the loyalty never fades.

I respect a woman too much to marry her.

If you’re willing to take the humiliation of sticking your head above the crowd, maybe it’s, you know, the pleasure will be worth the pain.

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

The more I go to church and the more I turn myself over to the process of believing in Jesus and listening to His Word and having Him guide my hand, I feel as though the pressure is off me now.

You are what you leave behind.

Action is always seen as the bottom rung of thespian endeavour, that’s just the way it is.

Gangster is the truest friend I can ever ask for.

I’m not a genetically superior person. I built my body.

I think that gravity sets into everything, including careers, but pendulums do swing and mountains do become valleys after a while if you keep on walking.

When crossing someone’s borders you have to be prepared to engage in a war that is far more brutal than if it were to take place on neutral territory.

Art’s everything we hope life would be, a lot of times.

Sometimes you don’t realize how far you’ve gotten until you look around at the people who are still trailing behind you.

Nobody’s life is perfect, and each individual will have their own struggles and stipulations.

Maybe people aren’t leaving you; perhaps the Universe is living room in life for your people who are worthy of your energy.

When we dance, the journey itself is the point, as when we play music the playing itself is the point. And exactly the same thing is true in meditation. Meditation is the discovery that the point of life is always arrived at in the immediate moment.

Nothing endures but change.

The more you work hard for your dreams, the quicker it will manifest into your life.  

Do for this life as if you live forever, do for the afterlife as if you die tomorrow.
