Quotes by Bruno Sammartino

I sweat an awful lot.
Bruno Sammartino
When I broke my neck, I was told that I came within a millimeter of dying or being paralyzed from the neck down. When it happened, I was numb on one side. In spite of how serious they were telling me it was, I never took it seriously. I kept saying it’s going to be OK, I trained too hard to get hurt. Which is silly.

I had a lot of my success due to appearing at the Garden. I wrestled there over 200 times, it’s where I won the title, and it’s where I picked up 630-plus pounds of Haystacks Calhoun.
