Charlton Heston
As is well know, I, ah..regard myself as a religious man, yet I belong to no church. I'm an able soldier yet I abhor armies. I can even add that I've been introduced to hundreds of women but never married. in other words no one's ever talked me into anything.
Charlton Heston
You can have my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.
