I was delighted to be able to do the movie ["Terminator: Genisys"] without getting exhausted or feeling old or tired or anything like this. I felt I was in great shape and I felt really young.

Pain makes me grow. Growing is what I want. Therefore, for me pain is pleasure.

I have to say that the judges and our judiciary system makes better decisions than the politicians.

Experiencing this pain in my muscles and aching and going on and on is my challenge. The last three or four reps is what makes the muscles grow. This area of pain divides a champion from someone who is not a champion. That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens. I have no fear of fainting. I do squats until I fall over and pass out. So what? It's not going to kill me. I wake up five minutes later and I'm OK. A lot of other athletes are afraid of this. So they don't pass out. They don't go on.

Onstage I'm always different than offstage. I can be very friendly offstage, but onstage I will pull one trick after another on my competition to wipe him out, you know-because it's my living and I have to win. Franco is my best friend, but I will do as much as I can to make him look bad and make me look good.

We made, actually, history, because it was the first time ever that doctors could prove that a lifelong Republican has a heart.

There is nothing like chess to keep the brain smart, and give it a workout.
