What we face may look insurmountable. But I learned something from all those years of training and competing. I learned something from all those sets and reps when I didn't think I could lift another ounce of weight. What I learned is that we are always stronger than we know.

There are bodybuilders who are afraid of indulging in sex or even of playing other sports for fear of harming their bodies. I think that's silly. What's the use of building your body if you don't use it?

I think that the only way that you really keep it a secret is by not telling anyone.

When you have a well developed body and you're confident, you see people bending your way, wanting to be on your side, wanting to do things for you.

It's as satisfying to me as, uh, coming is, you know? As, ah, having sex with a woman and coming.

Between your faith and my Glock nine millimeter, I'll take the Glock.

I didn't leave bodybuilding until I felt that I had gone as far as I could go. It will be the same with my film career. When I feel the time is right, I will then consider public service. I feel that the highest honor comes from serving people and your country.
