Like I said, I've got too much respect for women to marry them, but that doesn't mean you can't support them emotionally and financially.

Remember the mind is your best muscle...BIG ARMS can move rocks, but BIG WORDS can move mountains... Ride the brain train for success.

I know I'm incredibly unpredictable, and that's the only thing I'm sure of.

I started out as an actor, but I forced myself to be a writer, even though I wasn't very good at it and had never written. I don't think I ever passed an English course in my life. My first eight to 10 scripts were pretty horrendous, but I stayed at it, stayed at it, and stayed at it, until I eventually found a voice and a subject like Rocky that people were interested in.

I've been involved in something which was chaotic and insane. All I can say now is that I am, and intend to stay, a single man.

When I'm doing a movie, I eat the same thing every day. For lunch, it's tuna salad or chicken salad and cole slaw. That's it. For dinner it's either veal and rice, fish and rice or steak and rice. It gets boring; boy, does it get boring.

If bad decorating was a hanging offense, there'd be bodies hanging from every tree!
