Fantasy is an exercise bicycle for the mind. It might not take you anywhere, but it tones up the muscles that can. Of course, I could be wrong.
Terry PratchettEvery man prefers belief to the exercise of judgment.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaI don’t like going to the gym. My biggest focus is the neck and endurance. I wear this ‚Fifty Shades of Grey‘ harness, with a resistance trainer pulling against it.
Lando NorrisI don’t get up, get dressed, go out, and think, ‚Okay, I gotta find eight jokes.‘
Steven WrightI’m just wanting to make the proper breakfast and keep the house. That’s my passion. At the request of my kids, I’m taking cooking classes. As I go to sleep at night, I think, ‚Did I do a great job as a mom, or was that an average day?‘
Angelina JolieI’ve exercised with women so thin that buzzards followed them to their cars.
Erma BombeckI used to meditate all the time in bed. That was when I was raising my daughter, and I’d get her up and off to school, and then I would go back to bed and meditate. And then I would do the same in the evening, and that was very good for that period because I had so many things to juggle as a single mother.
Alice WalkerI worked out a lot before I was 20. I was hard underneath. I had just a little padding. I was quilted. Always Chanel.
Karl LagerfeldI love being active.
Dolly PartonWorking out anchors my day.
Dwayne JohnsonI usually get up at 3 A.M. I don’t require a lot of sleep, and if I get tired, I’ll take a powernap during the day.
Dolly PartonI have now exactly the same weight I had when I was 18, 20.
Karl LagerfeldCoaches will say that it’s not important for their team to run more, and they prefer to make games the right way. I want to make games only the right way and run 10 km more.
Jurgen KloppI didn’t want to lift weights and get all big; I just wanted to get cut.
Kevin HartI’m addicted to exercising and I have to do something every day.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerF2’s much harder physically on the arms and almost on the whole body than F1 is.
Lando NorrisAll truly great thoughts are conceived by walking.
Friedrich NietzscheTeam sports aren’t my thing. I find it easier to pick something up if I can do it at my own speed. And you don’t need a partner to go running, you don’t need a particular place, like in tennis, just a pair of trainers.
Haruki MurakamiA good feeling for me is when you train, and then you put on fresh clothes. New clothes after a training session – you have this rush of endorphins from exercise that everybody gets, and then you get that nice feeling of fresh clothes. It’s a double whammy.
Conor McGregorAny other woman who has to go to work and pick up the kids and make dinner – that’s way harder than what I have to do.
Beyonce KnowlesIf 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.
Dwayne JohnsonA man can do only what he can do. But if he does that each day he can sleep at night and do it again the next day.
Albert SchweitzerThe year 2100 will see eugenics universally established. In past ages, the law governing the survival of the fittest roughly weeded out the less desirable strains. Then man’s new sense of pity began to interfere with the ruthless workings of nature. As a result, we continue to keep alive and to breed the unfit.
Nikola TeslaIf you watch any good player, they’re using different parts of their body and working with instruments that respond to those movements. They’re moving in many dimensions at once.
Brian EnoEach day is a little life: every waking and rising a little birth, every fresh morning a little youth, every going to rest and sleep a little death.
Arthur SchopenhauerIf we could give every individual the right amount of nourishment and exercise, not too little and not too much, we would have found the safest way to health.
HippocratesI was 18 years old, and it was a dream come true for me to work out and eat great food for free. What else do you want in life? People think that is what it is like to be in a SEAL team, but it is less than a fraction of your career as a real SEAL.
Jocko WillinkI was part of Jazzercise class. It was an aerobics routine accompanied by loud music, sounding quite awful to me. Jazzercise was popular in the ’80s and ’90s.
Ruth Bader GinsburgAkron, Ohio, is my home. I will always be here. I’m still working out at my old high school.
LeBron JamesMy movements, ma’am, are all leg movements. I don’t do nothing with my body.
Elvis PresleyMy doctor told me I shouldn’t work out until I’m in better shape. I told him, ‚All right; don’t send me a bill until I pay you.‘
Steven WrightPay attention, don’t let life go by you. Fall in love with the back of your cereal box.
Jerry SeinfeldBasically it starts with four months of training, just basic stretching, kicking and punching. Then you come to the choreography and getting ready to put the dance together.
Keanu ReevesWalking is man’s best medicine.
HippocratesI run New York City!
Conor McGregorI don’t exercise.
Lou HoltzThe last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone else 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.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerWe must exercise ourselves in the things which bring happiness, since, if that be present, we have everything, and, if that be absent, all our actions are directed toward attaining it.
EpicurusLook at our society. Everyone wants to be thin, but nobody wants to diet. Everyone wants to live long, but few will exercise. Everybody wants money, yet seldom will anyone budget or control their spending.
John C. MaxwellMy goal is to be number one in MMA.
Conor McGregorIf you calculate 15 minutes a day to shave, that is 5,000 minutes a year spent shaving.
Fidel CastroI began running on an everyday basis after I became a writer. As being a writer requires sitting at a desk for hours a day, without getting some exercise you’d quickly get out of shape and gain weight, I figured.
Haruki MurakamiExercise is really important to me – it’s therapeutic. So if I’m ever feeling tense or stressed or like I’m about to have a meltdown, I’ll put on my iPod and head to the gym or out on a bike ride along Lake Michigan with the girls.
Michelle ObamaApart from the fact that any hardy exercise conduces much to the training and formation of a soldier, pig-sticking tends to give a man what is called a ‚stalker’s eye,‘ but which, par excellence, is the soldier’s eye.
Robert Baden-PowellI have a punishing workout regimen. Every day I do 3 minutes on a treadmill, then I lie down, drink a glass of vodka and smoke a cigarette.
Anthony HopkinsI’m not sure how I’d survive without English Breakfast tea. Even in the Caribbean, I must drink 20 cups a day.
Richard BransonI have tennis shoes with little rhinestones that I slip on if I exercise. But I always wear heels, even around the house. I’m such a short little thing, I can’t reach my kitchen cabinets.
Dolly PartonIn one day, I have times where I’m feeling great, I feel like I love my life, and then 2:30 rolls around and I’m the angriest man alive. My wife sees it.
Adam SandlerLet a man walk ten miles steadily on a hot summer’s day along a dusty English road, and he will soon discover why beer was invented.
Gilbert K. ChestertonI had a good time boxing. I enjoyed it – and I may come back.
Muhammad AliI am not someone who does a lot of exercise, so I attempt to maintain some sort of rhythm, and I think the jump rope is the funnest way. It’s easy, you can do it in your room or anywhere.
Bad BunnyI used to run a full marathon in three hours and 25 or 26 minutes. Not any more.
Haruki MurakamiI do the same exercises I did 50 years ago and they still work. I eat the same food I ate 50 years ago and it still works.
Arnold SchwarzeneggerI really love training and being in good shape, and it’s so much a part of my life now, so it never really feels like work to me.
Tom BradyCycling is a joy and faster than many other modes of transport, depending on the time of day. It clears the head.
David ByrneI hate going to the gym and doing it the old-fashioned way. I hate anything that’s too straightforward, too routine, too familiar. I get bored really, really quickly.
RihannaOur growing softness, our increasing lack of physical fitness, is a menace to our security.
John F. KennedyEvery day that is born into the world comes like a burst of music and rings the whole day through, and you make of it a dance, a dirge, or a life march, as you will.
Thomas CarlyleThe great fun in my life has been getting up every morning and rushing to the typewriter because some new idea has hit me.
Ray BradburyI never had a policy; I have just tried to do my very best each and every day.
Abraham Lincoln
