Success isn't always about greatness. It's about consistency. Consistent hard work leads to success. Greatness will come.
Dwayne Johnson
I'm always asked, 'What's the secret to success?' But there are no secrets. Be humble. Be hungry. And always be the hardest worker in the room.
Life is anything but predictable.
For me, training is my meditation, my yoga, hiking, biking all rolled into one. Wake up early in the morning, generally around 4 o'clock, and I'll do my cardio on an empty stomach. Stretch, have a big breakfast, and then I'll go train.
I like to use the hard times in the past to motivate me today.
I found that with depression, one of the most important things you could realise is that you're not alone.
I've always seen first responders as unsung heroes and very special people because, when everyone else is running away from danger, they run into it.
Check your ego at the door. The ego can be the great success inhibitor. It can kill opportunities, and it can kill success.
I'll never, ever be full. I'll always be hungry. Obviously, I'm not talking about food. Growing up, I had nothing for such a long time. Someone told me a long time ago, and I've never forgotten it, 'Once you've ever been hungry, really, really hungry, then you'll never, ever be full.'
Not only do I think being nice and kind is easy but being kind, in my opinion, is important.
Attitude and enthusiasm play a big part in my life. I get excited about the things that inspire me. I also believe in laughing and having a good time.
With drive and a bit of talent, you can move mountains. I know. I've done it.
I was raised by strong women, and that DNA is in my daughter and wife.
The single most powerful thing I can be is to be myself.
If I had to describe myself to an alien I'd say I was bigger than the average human, enjoy a drink or two with a good meal and have a bigger head than most. I'd also say I'm really handsome - especially if they were a female alien.
I grew up in a musical family; the majority of my growing up was done in Hawaii. It's what we do. You sing, you dance, you play ukulele and you drink.
If I love you, I show you I love you every day. Little things, big things.
I was brought up as an only child, and we were very close. But when I was 14, we got evicted. We came home to a padlock, and I looked up at my mom and she was crying, and there was nothing to do.
Come on, you can't name a truck after a chick.
I want someone who can trust that my big hands are going to take care of them.
I'm very low-key. I don't really blend in, so it's difficult to go out in public. I like to do things that are kind of quiet, whether it's a dinner at my house or a restaurant, or a movie night at home.
I can hold my own when it comes to burping. I've got a good feeling that I could win a championship.
I would never win an award for not loving pizza.
By the time I was 23 years old, I had multiple arrests.
You've got to keep your finger on the pulse of what your audience is thinking, and know what they'll accept from you.
When I was 8 years old, I saw 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' in Charlotte, North Carolina. I walked out of there and was so inspired. I loved the movie, and I knew I wanted to be that guy.
I have an immense amount of respect for acting. I've always loved movies and was always fascinated by movie-making. But to become an actor, I wanted to commit myself.
Playing big, heroic characters with heart is always a lot of fun. I enjoy making movies like that, and a lot of people love to live vicariously through those characters.
Wrestling was like stand-up comedy for me. Every night I had a live audience of 25,000 people to win over. My goal was never to be the loudest or the craziest. It was to be the most entertaining.
My philosophy is, it's always very rewarding when you can make an audience laugh. I don't mind making fun of myself. I like self-deprecating comedy. But I'd like you to laugh with me occasionally, too.
Nutrition is so important. It can't be stressed enough.
'Be Cool' was a defining movie for me.
The men I idolized built their bodies and became somebody - like Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger - and I thought, 'That can be me.' So I started working out. The funny thing is I didn't realize back then that I was having a defining moment.
I can eat two large pizzas and a tray of brownies in one sitting. I'm not sharing that. We can get another one, but I ain't sharing.
I love making people laugh and feel good, and that's awesome and special for me to be able to do that, but there really is nothing like kicking ass whether it's on a major scale, or whether it's in more of a dramatic fashion. Being physical and taking care of business the old-fashioned way is something that I love doing.
I do all my own stunts. I'm kidding.
What I like to do is get the family in the pick-up truck... and then we just go for a drive. That's it!
My genetic make-up is one of physicality. I'm a visceral guy.
My reputation precedes me now.
If you ever see The Rock working out in the gym, don't think you can just go up and disturb his workout and expect him to take a picture. He's there to work, so kindly just pass the silverback on by or he'll rip your face off.
Football changed my life and it gave me a platform to get out my aggression and it gave me a sense of value.
The sexiest thing that a woman can do, wear, and say all fall under one word to me: subtlety. To be subtle in the things that she does and the things she says and the things she wears - I appreciate the details.
If you check your ego at the door when it comes to comedy, you've got a pretty good shot at making a great movie that you can commit yourself to, you can jump off the proverbial cliff with, and have a great time, and the audiences respond to that.
I love Steve Carell.
It is no surprise that animation is Hollywood's most successful and innovative genre.
I think that always makes it fun, trying to create a heroic character and putting your own twist on it and injecting your own personality into it.
In Hollywood, a lot of times when something is in development, it just takes a lot of time.
Ain't nothing like a good cry.
I've been through natural disasters. I lived down in Miami and was down there for Hurricane Andrew which was a Category 5. There were members of my family that thought they were going to die. Everyone was in the bathtub.
Wrestling is intimate. You can reach out and touch the wrestlers.
