“People never know how their words and actions affect others. My daughter has attempted suicide 4 times in the past year. There were nights I was so scared to go to sleep for fear that I would wake up and she would be dead. All it took was one person to say/do something that caught her attention. She is so much better today…I have my daughter back; the one BEFORE depression took her. Please continue sharing your journey. You truly never know who you touch. This is one courageous person who shared her story…I’m sure there are many others and more to come. So thankful there are people like you in this world.”
– Robin Walston Griffin
“I just received a message from a friend who requested to remain anonymous thanking me for saving her life and avoiding possible suicide & THESE WERE POWERFUL WORDS….here is what she wrote me:
I know you may hear this every day from fans that you’ve gathered along your journey, but knowing what little I know, you’ve helped me. My life, even though I’m 33, has been a mixture of hell and happiness. After losing my only parent to breast cancer almost three months ago, I was at my bottom without a place to live. Due to the fact that mom got so sick, I had to be her full-time caregiver. So, when she passed, I couldn’t stay in the house she rented. I was about to just say, “I give up” and throw in the towel, end it all. But I was scrolling through my Facebook newsfeed and your post about you going through hell and how you didn’t give up, even when the world was knocking you down. It spoke to me, made me see that if you can do it, I can too. If you can go through all of that and not give in or give up, then, so can I! You may not know it my friend, but you saved me. Just that post, saved me from doing something that I wouldn’t be able to come back from. I know it may not seem like you have any clue as to what affect your words have on others. I can speak for myself, you’re an inspiration. I hope to make you proud and be the kind of person that can give others the same inspiration. To be able to pay it forward and save someone that’s in the shape I was in. So, from my heart to yours, thanks. Thank you for all that you’ve done. Much love, my dear friend.”

I feel so honored to have encountered John Joseph Quinlan and gotten to know him through my radio show. When I first ‘met’ John on social media, I had the feeling that he was a nice man. When I got to speak with him on our radio show, I knew I was right. John is a nice man with a huge heart for kids. A little boy named Harrison, from the UK is one of John’s biggest fans. Here is a letter from Harrison’s mother. “John just to let you know you have a little boy with a disability over here in the UK as one of your biggest fans. Every time he sits next to me when I am on Facebook, and he sees you he says to me, “mom I know I have muscle problems but seeing your friend John he inspires me to do my physio and exercises to get strong like John Quinlan.” So thank you.
John’s reply:
“To Master Harrison, Keep up the great work! Your friend always, John Quinlan.”
John says:
“If I can make a difference in even one kid’s life, then I feel accomplished.”
Thanks, John, for being you.
– Lisa Vandiver

John Quinlan – I haven’t known you long. But in the short amount of time that I have, I move learned a lot of things about you. I put them into a list.
1. You’re a fighter. When people said give up, it’s not worth it. You fought! You stood up and said, I don’t think so! And you fought with all you have. And you’ve came a long way.
2. You’re a great friend. You’re always there for your friends. And you’re honest. Loyalty is a great thing.
3. You’re a great father. Your kids are your heart. And that’s a wonderful thing. Being a father isn’t always easy. Sometimes there’s ups, other times there’s downs. But the love you show for your kids, is so great to see.
4. You’re stronger than you think.
5. Never give up.
6. Hard worker.
7. The love you show your wife. Is great to see. It’s nice to know that being a gentle mend isn’t out of style. You’re love for her, gives hope to others. Hope that they too, can find someone to love like that.
8. Your journey has only begun!
9. You’re destined for greatness!
10. Last, but not least, I’M PROUD OF YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS!

John is a proud- loving father and a kind and thoughtful person. John has supported well needed causes helping to spread awareness such as the Wrappednpink Breast Cancer Awareness Organization, to me it doesn’t matter how well known or unknown you may be or how much wealth you may or may not have in our society, what counts is how you give back to the communities to enlighten, educate, empower and motivate an awareness to situations affecting the world in which we live.
And John Quinlan, does just that! Best wishes John.

– Anna Patterson – Writer
John Quinlan is an amazing talent and very approachable by his fans. He is a dedicated family man, which makes him all the more sexy if that were even possible.
I would hire him in a heartbeat for one of my covers.
– Scarlette D’Noire – Writer
Hmmm… what can I say that I haven’t already? There are no words for someone that has done so much and gotten such great success, yet still has his head down at the same level as the rest of us and treats us as kindly and sweet as he does. He could easily be riding on his high horse while looking down his nose at us but instead he has stayed on level ground. I have not met such a kind person that knows he has his followers to thank, and what’s great is that he does. This is the man that thanks every single person in his life for just being there, so the gratitude from him is overwhelming. John has become someone I can rely on to lift me when my spirits are down without having the images to back him up. If anyone has missed out on the mass of a man he is in person, they are missing out on so much that needs experienced. I say this, “Thank you John for being my friend and reminding me that there are GREAT people out there.
Your friendship is a true treasure.”
– Crystal Rister – Writer

Not only did he go the extra mile to produce the short film, but he is interacting with my readers and helping me promote as well. This gentleman is much, much more than a pretty face.
– Debra Anastasia – Writer
John was kind enough to be photographed in a few of my “No Limits” brand underwear in exchange for being our 2012 model of the year. He did a great job, and we have communicated ever since then. He also did a short “thank you” video to me as well. A consummate professional and all-around great guy.
– Suzanne Carner
He is a wonderful human being, modest, honest, faithful, and a great family man!
I wish only the best for my friend and his family.
– Diane Seery
John Quinlan is the cover model for my as-yet-to-be-released vampire book. I love this man; he is so kind and knows how to give respect to everyone. I’ve never heard a single bad word toward anyone come from him. He has my complete respect and friendship…for life.
– CM Wright – Writer
Despite being in the fitness and entertainment business where people can be “divas” (men and women), John is such a wonderful, humble, and gracious man and a complete professional. Look forward to doing more work with him on creative projects. He is the cover model for my upcoming book ‘Fitness Between the Sheets.’ Not only does he work hard to do well in this business, but he is mindful to help and support others.

God Bless you John
– Faith Highlander – Writer
In the short time that I have known John, I have found him to be honest, loyal, family orientated, caring and kind. He always has people’s best interests at heart. I feel that no matter what his
circumstances are, he will always try to help if he is able. I already count John as a good friend and a very humble and God-fearing man.
– Thomas Clark
One of the funniest and down to earth guys I have ever known. Truly a good person and trusted friend.
I am so blessed to have known you.

“I want to give a huge shout out to John Joseph Quinlan for helping me reach many of my fitness goals. Always spotting me at 5 AM’s and really making me dig deep to get that one rep max or even that extra rep. Thank you a ton for making me want to put in the work each and every time. Keep kicking butt!! You’ve helped me reach my goals and keep pushing me further. I can’t thank you enough for being a role model for me. Thank you so much. Go get it Mr. Quinlan!! Thanks for being you!!”
– Cam Bishop
John is a great coach, trainer, and motivator. I am so glad I had the opportunity to work directly with him to help me reach my goals. Would not trade it for anything else. I would highly recommend anyone to work with him. He has worked in the industry of training and physique building for most of his life. I gained a lot of my tricks and personal records working with him. He is a man of amazing talent.
– Cam Bishop
“You are a star at RT and a star to many authors, why not showcase yourself and what your accomplishments are, not just physical attributes but all the positive things in your business outside of your personal life. Women and men love you, and as a cover model, you are a great role model. More people should know about that part of your life.”
– Taabia Dupree, Author
“You are an amazing actor and model! I absolutely enjoy working with you!!”
– Nikki Lenore – Photographer
I am a big fan of John’s body of work, and I was hoping I
might be able to request an autographed photo.
– Kelly Glynn – Belvidere, New Jersey
Hey John, big fan from Toronto! I was just wondering if
it’s possible to get an autographed photograph.
– Jeromme – Toronto, Canada
Your modeling pictures are very beautiful!!! I love them
soooooo much!!! You have a great face, a nice sight and a very beautiful
body/muscle structure!!!! Keep up the good work John!!! YOU ROOOCK!!! Best
regards and we keep in touch!!! XOXOXO

You are a very sexy man, if you would ever like to do a
shoot together please don’t hesitate to ask!
– Laci – Yulee, Florida
Amazing body man… great job
– AJ – San Juan, Puerto Rico
Killer physique dude
– Adam – New York, New York
I love your look
– Amy – Orlando, Florida
Wow u are a sexy dude
– Eriq – West Palm Beach, Florida
You look amazing
– Gary – Los Angeles, California
You are a big beautiful man – I normally don\’t reach out to male models since I am a female and have a private home studio. I would love to shoot you someday.
– Kate – Phoenix, Arizona
You are just stunning!
– Sidney – New York, new York
Great look and build. As for the ink, never thought of
you as a troublemaker, far from it. I see a man that loves his family. I see a
man that has a smile and looks that will win many over. I see a man that took
his body to a level that not many will ever. I see a man that is going to be a
great father to his daughter and his sons are so lucky to have a great dad like
you. I don’t see a troublemaker or bad ass man. I see one damn amazing man. Many
people may think that you are one huge muscle and what people don’t realize, is
your heart is bigger than your muscles.
John Michael – Buffalo, New York
I just looked over your port on MM – I have to say these
are some of the most beautiful pics I’ve ever seen on MM or on the Internet
overall. I just thought I would drop u a line to tell u this.
– December Moon Films – Beverly Hills, California
You’re in great shape!
– Bailey – Boston, Massachusetts

– Dora – Austin, Texas
Your work is fab!
– Amy – Oxford, England, United Kingdom
I just wanted to say I love your pics amazing body and
you don’t look like you’re in your 30s either.
– Kimberly – Beverly, Massachusetts
I think it is great that you have lent your body out to
THE ARTS rather than only the commercial world.
Photography is fine, but there is something more satisfying in
sculpture, painting and drawing.
– Robert – Providence, Rhode Island
John I’d welcome the chance to work together – you’re
like a perfect invention – comic book hero style. I produced a film – Spaceman
on Earth which premiered at Cannes – it sounds funny but was a big hit, about a
1950s astronaut that gets pegged as a commie by his Martian neighbor, it has
50-foot women, cops, green screen, animation, puppeteering, and lots of
references to classic cinema, B-cinema, sci-fi genre. When we follow up with a
sequel, would be great to have you in it. You could play such an interesting
character, like a super violent menacing fighter with a heart of gold – like a
gentle giant. Written with lots of humor which is our forte. Your training is
impeccable, and you fit the part perfectly.
– Alex – Los Angeles, California
John, I like that you are humble enough to NOT talk to people as if you are better than them.
Humility is a rare and beautiful thing. Good to know that you are spoken well of.
You look GREAT! Keep up the hard work, it shows!
– Nicole – Houston, Texas
You are a great looking guy, and from what I can tell, you already have a pretty solid grasp on what your goals are – so you are way ahead of many of the other models.
– Flyfoto – Boston, Massachusetts
Your work is hot!
– Frank – Miami Beach, Florida
I just love your look!
– Allison – Cincinnati, Ohio
I saw your profile on Model Mayhem and I think you have a
very strong, masculine face and build.
– Auburnex – Boston, Massachusetts
Amazing photos – great work! My best wishes.
– David – Palm Springs, California
