"In the warriors code, there's no surrender. Though his body says stop, his spirit cries - never!"

"The truth is, sometimes...
I do get a little scared.
When I'm in that ring really getting hit...
and my arms hurt so much I can't lift them.
I'm thinking, "God, I wish this guy would hit me on the chin...
so I don't feel nothing anymore."
Then there's another side that comes out that isn't so scared.
It's another side that wants to take more...
that wants to go that one more round...
because by going that one more round...
when you don't think you can--
That's what makes all the difference in your life."

ROCKY: "This fight you're having against the Russian-- Do you think maybe it ain't against him?"
ROCKY: "Do you think maybe it's you against you?"
ROCKY: "Apollo, you're a great fighter. No doubt about that. But we have to face the facts too. You don't want to believe it, but maybe the show is over."
APOLLO: "That's easy for you to say. You're still on top. What happens when you're not on top? Then what? Where do we go? We sure can't be born again."
ROCKY: "I know we can't be born again, but we have to change sometime."
APOLLO: "I don't want to change! I like who I am!"
ROCKY: "You don't want to believe this, but that ain't us no more. We can't do that the way we did before. We're changing. We're turning into regular people."
APOLLO: "Maybe you think you're changing... but you can't change what you really are. Forget all this money and stuff around you. It don't change a thing. You and me don't even have a choice. We're born with a killer instinct you can't turn off and on like a radio. We have to be in the middle of the action because we're warriors. Without some challenge, without some war to fight... then the warrior may as well be dead."

ROCKY: "I'm a fighter. That's the way I'm made. That's what you married. - We can't change what we are."
ROCKY: "You can't change anything. All we can do is just go with what we are."
ADRIAN: "You can't go with what you are. Have you read the papers? Everybody says it's suicide! You've seen him. You know how strong he is.You can't win!"
ROCKY: "Adrian always tells the truth. Maybe I can't win. Maybe the only thing I can do... is just take everything he's got. But to beat me, he'll have to kill me. And to kill me... he'll have to have the heart to stand in front of me. And to do that... he has to be willing to die himself."

[Dertygen]

I will not relent no, no
Never live with defeat, never falter
It's like the air that I breathe(like the air that I breathe)
I will not choke on failure
Cause I will not choke on failure

I am a mortal man
But I'm not fallen, I'm not broken yet
I am a mortal man
But I hold tight to my beliefs now

I have suffered defeat, pain, loss
Still I push to the edge, never falter
For this cements my beliefs (this cements my beliefs)
I'll remain my own master

I will not relent no no
Never suffer defeat, never falter
For this cements my beliefs (this cements my beliefs)
I will not choke on failure

I am a mortal man
But I'm not falling I'm not broken yet
I am a mortal man
But I hold tight to my beliefs now

I am a mortal man
But I'm not falling I'm not broken yet
I am a mortal man
But I hold tight to my beliefs now

I will not relent
I will not relent, no no
I will not relent
Never suffer defeat never falter
I will not relent, no no

Never suffer
Never falter
I will not relent, no no
Never suffer
Never falter

ROCKY MOVIES ARE EPIC!!!

No doubt about it

[strongpassion]

"The theory of evolution claims only the strong shall survive. Maybe so, maybe so. But the theory of competition says just because they're the strong, doesn't mean they can't get their asses kicked."
-Nike Commercial (no idea who said it)

"The theory of evolution claims only the strong shall survive. Maybe so, maybe so. But the theory of competition says just because they're the strong, doesn't mean they can't get their asses kicked."
-Nike Commercial (no idea who said it)

heres the full quote

"Here's the thing that makes life so interesting. The theory of evolution claims only the strong shall survive. Maybe so... Maybe so... But the theory of competition says. Just because they're the strong doesn't mean they can't get their asses kicked. That's right. See what every long shot, come from behind, under dog will tell you is this. The other guy may in fact be the favorite. The odds may be stacked against you, fair enough. But what the odds don't know, is this isn't a math test. This is a completely different kind of test. One where passion, has a funny way of trumping logic. So before you step up to the starting line. Before the whistle blows and the clock starts ticking. Just remember, out here the results don't always add up. No matter what the stats may say and the experts may think and the commentators may have predicted. When the race is on, all bets are off. Don't be suprised if somebody decides to flip the script and take a pass on yelling uncle. And then suddenly as the old saying goes 'we got our selves a game'"

dont know who said it though

[mtbon]

Anything from Vincent Lambardi

"It is not the critic who counts, not the one who points out how the strong man stumbled or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, if he wins, knows the triumph of high achievement; and who, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
Roosevelt

"The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds."
Rollins

"The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent."
Arnold

I just want to say thank you to all the people that hate on us out there. Your the ppl that fuel our fire in the gym. You are the ppl that help us get up that last rep, and again I thank you.

We all had to start somewhere. We were not born with huge biceps and cut abs. We were rather fat or skinny. Me. I started fat 40 pounds overweight. I got tired of being called chubby cheeks, and rolls. 1 year later, im down from 245 to 190, with body fat at 11%. But I dont understand, now you hate cause im bigger and better than you. Well keep hatin, and see what another year will bring. Cause you inspire me to push harder and further. Nothing will bring me down, nothing can bring me down. I'm gonna keep climbing and when I get to the top, I'm gonna keep climbing.

[Wellz]

I do not choose to be a common man, it is my right to be uncommon. If I can I seek oppurtunity not security.
I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I want to take the calculated risk.
To dream and to build, to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter incenitive to dull. I prefer the challenges of life to the guarnateed existence.
The thrill of fulfillment to the stale calm of utopia. I will not trade free for beneficence or my dignity for a handout.
I will never cower before any master nor bend for any threat. It is my heritage to stand erect, proud and unafraid, to think and act for myself.
To enjoy the benefit of my creation and to face the world boldly and say this I have done.
Folks America is the greatest country in the history of man. All of this is what it means to be an American.

[natethelegend]

".....But, if we get on the treadmill together, there's two things: You're getting off first, or I'm gonna die. It's really that simple."- Will Smith


And we[b] rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. 3Not only so, but we[c] also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. (Bible Romans 5 2-6)

It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.
- Theodore Roosevelt

Failure teaches success.

I was never afraid of failure, for I would sooner fail than not be among the best.

Here are my contributions:

"The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves STRONG. The amount of work is the same." -Carlos Castaneda

"Without the STRENGTH to endure the crisis, one will not see the opportunity within. It is within the process of endurance that opportunity reveals itself."
-Chin-Ning Chu

"Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole STRENGTH and SOUL can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person." -Albert Einstein

"There are many qualities that make a great leader. But having STRONG beliefs, being able to stick with them through popular and unpopular times, is the most important characteristic of a great leader." -Rudy Giuliani

Sorry if any of these are repeats, but this is a large thread

[selfhelp123]

To me, success is something much more than the achievement of the intended purpose. Success should create some emotion when achieved. Believing in yourself is very important in order to climb the ladder of success. For that, you need to be motivated.
Here are some inspirational quotes to keep everyone motivated,

Life has no smooth road for any of us; and in the bracing atmosphere of a high aim the very roughness stimulates the climber to steadier steps, till the legend, over steep ways to the stars, fulfills itself.
- W. C. Doane

We are all inventors, each sailing out on a voyage of discovery, guided each by a private chart, of which there is no duplicate. The world is all gates, all opportunities.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Without inspiration the best powers of the mind remain dormant, they is a fuel in us which needs to be ignited with sparks.
- Johann Gottfried Von Herder

Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
Willing is not enough; we must do.
- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
