John Wayne

John Wayne
Very few of the so-called liberals are open-minded.... They shout you down and won't let you speak if you disagree with them.
John Wayne
Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday.
John Wayne
