impossible-things people attention
My whole life everyone always said 'it can't be done', 'you'll never do it', 'you will fail', 'no one has ever gone from Austria and become a Mr Universe, blah, blah, blah', or when I ran for governor people were sceptical. It was 'you're going to lose' and 'people don't take people from show-business seriously in politics'. So, I've heard all the 'it's impossible' thing but I didn't pay any attention because I believed that I could do it.
careers challenges impossible
I never wanted to be a career politician. I always am interested just to take on challenges that everyone says are impossible to do and to take it on.
mistake people want
I won't raise taxes, because I do not want to punish the people for the politicians' mistakes.
mean thinking actions-speak-louder-than-words
I think actions speak louder than words. You can do all the hyping you want. It doesn't mean anything.
believe i-believe believe-in-love
I believe in "love it, or change it" rather than "love it, or leave it."
thinking pyramids littles
I think that if I have a chance to go back, why not just go back all the way in history to the times of the pyramids or the Roman days? I think there are so many great historic times until now that I would like to get a little peek of those periods, rather than just 1984. Why limit yourself?
might chance time-travel
If I have the chance to time travel, might as well go all out.
i-am-what-i-am
I am what I am - which is I have aged.
lunch discipline usual
Do you have to discipline yourself to have breakfast, lunch or dinner? Of course not; and so discipline - the usual concept of it - doesn't apply here. I had to discipline myself to learn English, but never to train.
judging decision politician
I have to say that the judges and our judiciary system makes better decisions than the politicians.
tired feelings shapes
I was delighted to be able to do the movie [Terminator: Genisys ]without getting exhausted or feeling old or tired or anything like this. I felt I was in great shape and I felt really young.
motivational-sports strong bodybuilding
Just like in bodybuilding, failure is also a necessary experience for growth in our own lives, for if we're never tested to our limits, how will we know how strong we really are? How will we ever grow?
weekend giving trying
I was also going to give a graduation speech in Arizona this weekend. But with my accent, I was afraid they would try to deport me.
believe gay decision
For the hundreds of thousands of Californians in gay and lesbian households who are managing their day-to-day lives, this decision affirms the full legal protections and safeguards I believe everyone deserves.
