| I came to this country with nothing but a gym bag and a dream. | |
| I knew I was a winner back in the late sixties. I knew I was destined for great things. | |
| I was always dreaming about very powerful people, dictators, and things like that. | |
| I am not a self-made man. I got a lot of help. | |
| Everything I have ever done in my life has been because I visualized it first. | |
| I never listened to the people who said you can't. | |
| Trust yourself. Dig deep down and ask yourself, who do you want to be? | |
| Work like hell. I mean you just have to put in those 18-hour days. | |
| Don't be afraid to fail. Anything I've ever attempted, I was always willing to fail. | |
| You have to make up your mind to be who you want to be. | |
| The mind always fails first, not the body. The secret is to make your mind work for you, not against you. | |
| The resistance that you fight physically in the gym and the resistance that you fight in life can only build a strong character. | |
