Going in one more round when you don't think you can - that's what makes all the difference in your life.

If you're gonna be a failure, at least be one at something you enjoy.

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

I used to tweet, but it's an act of futility. You're not really making any impact, and if you find yourself in a mood when you wanna be a bit controversial and you post something, you suddenly realise, 'Oh my God!' because you've opened yourself up to a bunch of criticism from strangers.

Making a movie is the same as an orchestra; it's moving all the different instruments and the sounds, the kinetic and the auditory and the visual all together. I'm probably the trombone.

Most action is based on redemption and revenge, and that's a formula. Moby Dick was formula. It's how you get to the conclusion that makes it interesting.
