...and the reporter got it wrong. The clip described is from "Rocky Balboa," not "Rocky"

Former New York City Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik will turn himself in at a federal minimum security prison this afternoon to began serving a four-year sentence for charges that included lying to White House officials while being vetted for a cabinet post.

To prepare his daughters, 10 and 7 years old, for their father’s absence, Kerik wrote that they watched “Rocky”, “for the sole purpose of having them watch one scene where Rocky speaks to his son and says, ‘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.”
