At 65, Arnold Schwarzenegger is older and wiser, and sharing some of the lessons he's learned throughout his life in the January "Meaning of Life" issue of Esquire magazine.
One lesson: stick to the job you know. He recalls criticizing the writing and one of the most iconic phrases in "The Terminator," saying: “I didn’t get it at first. 'I'll be back.' What the f-- is 'I'll'? 'I will be back' sounded much stronger in my mind. So I argued with (writer/director) Jim Cameron. And he said, 'Look, Arnold, I don’t tell you how to act. Please don’t tell me how to write.'"
The former governator concedes that Cameron knew what he was doing.
"After I saw it in the movie, I was so thankful to Cameron. That was a good lesson to learn. If someone is a good writer, stick to the script."
Schwarzenegger also talks about how sex has changed over the years. "When you get older, sex may change a bit," he told the magazine. "When you’re 65, it's not exactly the same as when you were 25. But that doesn’t mean it's over. It's never over."
