More quotes by 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
You're going to think I'm being corny, but this is how I really feel: I hope my family and my friends will be able to say that I was an honest, kind and fairly decent man.
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
Life's tough. It's even tougher when you are stupid.
John Wayne
Republic. I like the sound of the word. It means people can live free, talk free, go or come, buy or sell, be drunk or sober, however they choose. Some words give you a feeling.
John Wayne
It's kind of a sad thing when a normal love of country makes you a super patriot. I do think we have a pretty wonderful country, and I thank God that He chose me to live here.
John Wayne
Let's say I hope that I appeal to the more carefree times in a person's life rather than to his reasoning adulthood. I'd just like to be an image that reminds someone of joy rather than of the problems of the world.
John Wayne
The hyphenated American is ridiculous. But that's what we have to put up with. I think that any person that's in the United States is better off here than they would be where they came from.
John Wayne
My favorite four-letter words are 'hard work'.
John Wayne
That's why men need instant replays in sports. They've already forgotten what happened.
John Wayne
I play John Wayne in every part regardless of the character, and I've been doing okay, haven't I?
John Wayne
All battles are fought by scared men who'd rather be some place else.
John Wayne
I would like to be remembered, well... the Mexicans have a phrase, 'Feo fuerte y formal'. Which means he was ugly, strong and had dignity.
John Wayne
I would think somebody like Jane Fonda and her idiot husband would be terribly ashamed and saddened that they were a part of causing us to stop helping the South Vietnamese. Now look what's happening. They're getting killed by the millions. Murdered by the millions. How the hell can she and her husband sleep at night?
John Wayne
If you can't be thankful for what you have, be thankful for what you have escaped.
John Wayne
True Grit is making a decision and standing by it, doing what must be done. No moral man can have peace of mind if he leaves undone what he knows he should have done.
John Wayne
Life is tough pilgrim, it is even tougher if you're stupid
John Wayne
Paul Newman would have been a much more important star if he hadn't always tried to be an anti-hero, to show the human feet of clay.
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
I eat as much as I ever did, I drink more than I should, and my sex life is none of your goddamned business.
