John Wayne
But don't get me wrong. As far as a man and a woman is concerned, I'm awfully happy there's a thing called sex. It's an extra something God gave us. I see no reason why it shouldn't be in pictures. Healthy, lusty sex is wonderful.
John Wayne
When you come slam bang up against trouble, it never looks half as bad if you face up to it.
John Wayne
I drink for comradeship, and when I drink for comradeship, I don't bother to keep count.
