Not Every Legend Is A Myth, Some Are Flesh And Blood. Some Legends Walk Among Us, But They Aren’t Born, They’re Built. Legends Are Made From Iron & Sweat, Mind And Muscle, Blood And Vision And Victory. Legends Are Champions, They Grow, They Win, They Conquer. There’s A Legend Behind Every Legacy, There’s A Blueprint Behind Every Legend.

The Unique Thing About Bodybuilding Is That When I Compete It Is Just Me On A Stage Alone. There Is No Field, No Bat, No Ball, No Skis, No Skates.

I Think That Every Job That You Can Save Is Important. Every Job That You Can Create Is Very Important And It Should Not Be The Number One Reason Why We Invest In Infrastructure To Create Jobs.

For Me, Life Is About Continuously Being Hungry. It's Meaning Is Not Simply To Just Exist Or To Survive, But To Move Ahead, To Go Up, To Achieve, To Conquer. Strength Does Not Come From Winning. Your Struggles Develop Your Strengths. When You Go Through Hardships And Decide Not To Surrender, That Is Strength. We All Have Great Power. That Power Is Self-faith.

I Am Like Getting The Feeling Of Cumming In The Gym; I'm Getting The Feeling Of Cumming At Home; I'm Getting The Feeling Of Cumming Backstage; When I Pump Up, When I Pose Out In Front Of 5000 People I Get The Same Feeling, So I Am Cumming Day And Night.

When Your Vision Is Powerful Enough, Everything Else Falls Into Place: How You Live Your Life, Your Workouts, What Friends You Choose To Hang Out With, How You Eat, What You Do For Fun. Vision Is Purpose, And When Your Purpose Is Clear, So Are Your Life Choices. Vision Creates Faith And Faith Creates Willpower. With Faith, There Is No Anxiety, No Doubt - Just Absolute Confidence.

The Secret Is Contained In A Three-part Formula I Learned In The Gym: Self Confidence, A Positive Mental Attitude, And Honest Hard Work. Many People Are Aware Of These Principles, But Very Few Can Put Them Into Practice. Every Day I Hear Someone Say, 'i'm To Fat. I Need To Lose Twenty-five Pounds, But I Can't. I Never Seem To Improve.' I'd Hate Myself If I Had That Kind Of Attitude, If I Were That Weak. I Can Lose Ten To Forty Pounds Rapidly, Easily, Painlessly, By Simply Setting My Mind To It.

My Definition Of A Sport Is That It's A Physical Activity That Involves Competition. Since Bodybuilders Certainly Train And Then Compete, We Are Certainly A Sport.

People Are Always Making A Fuss Over My $15-20-million Salaries. Believe Me, The Amount Is Meaningless Once My Wife, Maria, Finds Out About It. She's Already Spent Half Of My Salary From Terminator 7!

Bodybuilding Is Much Like Any Other Sport. To Be Successful, You Must Dedicate Yourself 100% To Your Training, Diet And Mental Approach.

My Only Rule Is To Keep Moving, For A Pump And Cardio At The Same Time. Rest As Little As Possible. After An Hour, You Will Feel Fantastic And Your Muscles Won't Know What Hit Them.

I Think That One-liners Are Very Important And Sometimes You Don't Even Know When You're Making The Movie That It's Going To Be A Great Line. I Remember When We Did 'the Terminator' And I Came To The Line "i'll Be Back" I Had No Idea That It Was Going To Be An Important Line.

For Me Life Is Continuously Being Hungry. The Meaning Of Life Is Not Simply To Exist, To Survive, But To Move Ahead, To Go Up, To Achieve, To Conquer.

My Friend James Cameron And I Made Three Films Together - True Lies, The Terminator And Terminator 2. Of Course, That Was During His Early, Low-budget, Art-house Period.

I Posed For A Gay Magazine, Which Caused Much Comment. But It Doesn't Bother Me. Gay People Are Fighting The Same Kind Of Stereotyping That Bodybuilders Are: People Have Certain Misconceptions About Them Just As They Do About Us.

Bodybuilders And Fitness People Have Been Using, Very Extensively, Chiropractors In Order To Stay Healthy And Fit. Whenever I Had A Little Problem With My Body, I Always Ran To One Of My Dear Friends, Dr Franco Columbo, He Was Always Right There With The Adjustments. This Is How I Found Out The Best Way Of Going, Is To Use Chiropractors, Not Only After Injuries , But Also Before Injury.

My Instinct Was To Win, Eliminate Anyone Who Is In Competition, Destroy My Enemy And Move On Without Any Kind Of Hesitation At All.

Most Bodybuilders Only Have A Hazy Notion Of What They Want To Look Like. They Do Not Say, 'i Am Going To Be A Winner.' The Negative Impulses Around The Gym Can Be Incredible. I Would Hear Bodybuilders Complaining, 'oh,no! Not Another Set!' That Destroyed Them. I Have Always Believed That If You're Training For Nothing, You're Wasting Your Effort!

I Think This Is Exactly Where The Action Is, Is In The Middle. I Have Seen It When I Was Governor Of The State Of California. I Have Seen It Firsthand, That The Only Way We Brought Democrats And Republicans Together, We Could Really Solve Very Important Issues.

I Like The Color Red Because It's A Fire. And I See Myself As Always Being On Fire.

People Need To Be Insured So When You Have An Accident Out There, Or When Something Catastrophic Happens To You, That You're Covered And There's Not Someone Else Has To Pay For You. That Is As Simple As That.

I Do Squats Until I Fall Over And Pass Out. So What? It’s Not Going To Kill Me. I Wake Up Five Minutes Later And I’m Ok

I Really Like Thanksgiving Turkey... It Does Not Take Only Time In Houston That You Look At Natural Breasts.

Having Chicks Around Is The Kind Of Thing That Breaks Up The Intense Training. It Gives You Relief, And Then Afterward You Go Back To The Serious Stuff.

Intense Training

Just Remember, You Can't Climb The Ladder Of Success With Your Hands In Your Pockets.

Funny Graduation

It Doesn't Matter What The Income Level Of Your Family Is, Or If English Is The First Or Second Language. It Makes No Difference. The Bottom Line Is That Every Child Can Be An Academic Champion, An Academic Champion And A Superstar In Academics.

I Take The Academic Education As Seriously As The Physical Education. That's Why I Tell Parents That The Schools Can't Do It All Themselves. The Parents Can't Come Home From Work And Turn On The Tv. That's Not Being A Good Parent.

Experiencing This Pain In My Muscles And Aching And Going On And On Is My Challenge. The Last Three Or Four Reps Is What Makes The Muscles Grow. This Area Of Pain Divides A Champion From Someone Who Is Not A Champion. That's What Most People Lack, Having The Guts To Go On And Just Say They'll Go Through The Pain No Matter What Happens. I Have No Fear Of Fainting. I Do Squats Until I Fall Over And Pass Out. So What? It's Not Going To Kill Me. I Wake Up Five Minutes Later And I'm Ok. A Lot Of Other Athletes Are Afraid Of This. So They Don't Pass Out. They Don't Go On.

The Mind Is Incredible. Once You've Gained Mastery Over It, Channeling Its Powers Positively For Your Purposes, You Can Do Anything. I Mean Anything. The Secret Is To Make Your Mind Work For You Not Against You. This Means Constantly Being Positive. Constantly Setting Up Challenges You Can Meet Either Today, Next Week, Or Next Month. "i Can't..." Should Be Permanently Stricken From Your Vocabulary, Especially The Vocabulary Of Your Thoughts. You Must See Yourself Always Growing And Improving.

In This Country, It Doesn't Make Any Difference Where You Were Born. It Doesn't Make Any Difference Who Your Parents Were. It Doesn't Make Any Difference If, Like Me, You Couldn't Even Speak English Until You Were In Your Twenties.

Obviously, I've Made Statements That Were Ludicrous And Crazy And Outrageous And All Those Things, Because That's The Way I Always Was.

I Just Use My Muscles As A Conversation Piece, Like Someone Walking A Cheetah Down 42nd Street.
