  • My relationship to power and authority is that I'm all for it...People need somebody to watch over them. . . . Ninety-five percent of the people in the world need to be told what to do and how to behave.
    • A profile in U.S. News and World Report (1990)
  • These kids come to me and ask, 'Hey Arnie, are you God?'. I just laugh and say 'Nice try, but keep looking.'
  • Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.
  • Everybody likes to be wanted... and needed, and appreciated and loved, and all those things. Some people only have it in a limited way. You know, by just being loved by their family, or by their children, or by their brother or whatever... their wife. Some people like more than that. Now, I am one of them.
  • You can't reason with people blinded by hate. They hate the power of the individual. They hate the progress of women. They hate the religious freedom of others. They hate the liberating breeze of democracy. But ladies and gentlemen, their hate is no match for America's decency.
  • The guys who own the most real estate in Los Angeles are Europeans. There are people coming over from Yugoslavia with hardly any money...a friend of mine came over from Czechoslovakia in '68 and he now owns four apartment buildings. Americans are still sitting on their asses waiting for it. Europeans are hungry because we don't have that much.
  • What I want to do is make Americans aware that they're fucked-up when they equate everything a person does with some sexual trip. . You know, if you hold a pencil in your hand, it's a phallic symbol and you really want to hold a cock in your hand. And a football coach doesn't really want to be a coach, he likes to slap football players' asses...he's a latent homosexual. And it goes on and on and on, all the fucking time.
    • Time Out, 1977
  • America is so money-oriented. (Thank God! It's always helped me!) But it has its disadvantages because the psychiatrists know their business doesn't mean a thing if there are no sick people around, and so they make everybody feel guilty. You know, all New York City is running to a psychiatrist. All America thinks it has sexual hang ups. Everybody's running to shrinks.
    • Time Out, 1977
  • Nixon was always being attacked sexually. It was always said that he was a fag and that he had no sexual relations with his wife for 15 years and that was why he liked power. And Hitler had only one ball, and that was why he wanted to conquer the world.
    • Time Out, 1977
  • So I want to say to you: yes, that I have behaved badly sometimes. Yes, it is true that I was on rowdy movie sets and I have done things that were not right which I thought then was playful, but now I recognize that I have offended people. And to those people that I have offended, I want to say to them: I am deeply sorry about that, and I apologize because this is not what I'm trying to do. When I am governor, I will prove to women that I will be a champion for women. I hope you will give me the chance to prove this.
  • We can't always do what we are passionate about, but everything we do can move us closer to our passion.
  • Everybody pities the weak; jealousy you have to earn.

Gawker article[edit]

This 25 May 2011 article mentions:

Getting back to this sleazy picture on the cover of Star, it reminds me of a series of photos that Gawker published years ago before this scandal. One featured a then-single Arnold fingering a woman and smiling for the camera with other people around.

"Years before" sounds like 2009ish. Would anyone happen to know the title of the Gawker articles which included this photo? I am trying to figure out when it became popularized. Gawker hasn't updated since Hogan wrecked it in 2016 but it still might require checking archives. Ranze (talk) 19:42, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
