Arnold Schwarzenegger: No One Can Do It Alone

Arnold Schwarzenegger - Together

Arnold Schwarzenegger says the idea of the self-made man is a myth, and that we must all help each other, because no one can get anywhere on their own.

Transcript:


"I came over here with absolutely nothing. I had $20 in the pocket and some sweaty clothes in a gym bag. But let me tell you, I had this one little apartment and on Thanksgiving, the bodybuilders from Gold's Gym came to my apartment and they brought me pillows, dishes, silverware, all of the things I didn't have. None of us can make it alone. None of us. Not even the guy that is talking to you right now, who was the greatest body builder of all times. Not even me, that has been the Terminator and went back in time to save the human race. Not even me that fought and that killed predators with his bare hands.

"I always tell people that you can call me anything that you want, but don't ever, ever call me a self-made man. It gives the wrong impression, that we can do it alone. None of us can. The whole concept of the self-made man or woman is a myth. I would have never made it in my life without the help. So this is why I don't beileve in a self-made man. Why I want you to understand that is, because as soon as you understand that you are here because of a lot of help, then you also understand that now it's time to help others. That's what this is all about."
