Un mesaj precum cel care urmeaza are cu atat mai multa consistenta, cu cat a fost rostit de un actor care ne-a obisnuit mai degraba cu risipa de gloante decat cu cea de vorbe intelepte. Insa mesajul, pe langa ca rastoarna mituri [de exemplu credinta de mic copil ca tu nu poti ajunge subiect de film, ca nimic rau nu ti se poate intampla tie sau celor dragi] si ne aduce cu picioarele pe pamant vizavi de lumea in care traim, te motiveaza si iti da curaj. Curaj de boxer.

“The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get it and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!” (Rocky Balboa)

Toti suntem mai buni de atat. Toti. Iar daca nu ma crezi, am sa-ti fac poza si apoi am sa-ti desenez mustati!
