Rocky Balboa: What is it you said to the kid? It ain't about how hard you're hit, it's about how you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. Get up.
Paulie: Are you angry because Adrian left you?
Rocky Balboa: She didn't leave, she died.
Mason 'The Line' Dixon: It's already over.
Rocky Balboa: There aint nothin' over till it's over.
Mason 'The Line' Dixon: Where's that from, the 80's?
Rocky Balboa: That's probably the 70's.
Marie: The last thing to age on somebody is their heart.
Rocky Balboa: I'll leave it on the steps... Steps.
Rocky Balboa: Ya know they always say if you live in one place long enough, you are that place.
Paulie: I ain't no talking building, Rock.
Marie: Don't get out. It's all right.
Rocky Balboa: No, Little Marie. It ain't all right.
Paulie: Who's the criminal?
Rocky Balboa: He's a nice kid.
Paulie: He dresses like a bum.
Rocky Balboa: Oh, coming from a human hamper, that's quite a compliment.
Rocky Balboa: I feel like a kangaroo... all this stuff in my pocket.
Rocky Balboa: Wow.
Marie: Glad you dropped in?
Rocky Balboa: I think the neighborhood's changin' a little.
Rocky Balboa: I think every guy should at one time try to name an animal or something.
Rocky Balboa: Come on Paulie, we're about to serve the special.
Paulie: Italian food made by Mexicans ain't that special.
Duke: Gettin' stronger.
Rocky Balboa: What's crazy about standing toe to toe and saying "I am"?
Rocky Balboa: Why do you gotta owe something to get something?
Duke: To beat this guy, you need speed. You don't have it. And you've got calcium deposits on most of your joints, so sparring is out.
Paulie: I had that problem.
Duke: So what we'll be calling on is blunt force trauma. Let's start building some hurtin' bombs.
Answer: This is true, however it was something invented for Rocky V that was supposed to be from Rocky IV that was only introduced into V after. V is considered to be the worst film of the series with very poor reception. Stallone himself has even gone on record saying that he hates V. So this sixth film almost pretends that film never happened. V is still technically canon with this film, however six basically ignores a lot of problem with that film and tries to recton it. Does this create inconsistencies and continuity issues with the series? yes. Is the film better for it? Definitely. So where as that was supposed to be the case after V, they pretty much said with this film that no... we are not doing that any more pretend V didn't happen... but it did happen. It's a soft reboot in a way.
