I've done my "mind over matter" movies, and I think probably that people aren't really interested in seeing me do that anymore. I think I'm kind of past my prime to do dramatic films. I think it'd become kind of like almost a pathetic cry out to be recognized as a serious drama actor.

You cannot train yourself. I feel the same way about Christianity and about what the church is: The church is the gym of the soul.

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

I loved 'Rocky' and 'Rambo', and am very proud of them.

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

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

I've always boxed a certain way. But with Rocky, the character himself had to be kind of awkward. So I had to learn to fight that way.
