Rocky would definitely run for councilman. Maybe mayor. But these people are actually most effective in the family unit. That's where they shine.

Boxing is sort of an inevitability. We know they are going to be pounding each other.

I have a lack of fear, whereas in the past the fear of failure was a powerful motivator. Anyway, I have great expectations for the future, but I just don't know if I'm the monarch of all I survey.

When boxers are in the ring, they're simple. It's when the fight is over, that's when the other fight, the real fight, begins. That's the problem.

You know what I think happened? After 'Rocky,' I was almost set up in the eyes of the media to make a flop.

You are what you leave behind.

I believe any success in life is made by going into an area with a blind, furious optimism.
