More quotes by John Wayne
I'm sure we can talk things out like civilized people.
John Wayne
I've always followed my father's advice: he told me, first to always keep my word and, second, to never insult anybody unintentionally. If I insult you, you can be goddamn sure I intend to. And, third, he told me not to go around looking for trouble.
John Wayne
If you can't be thankful for what you have, be thankful for what you have escaped.
John Wayne
I stick to simple themes. Love. Hate. No nuances. I stay away from psychoanalyst's couch scenes. Couches are good for one thing.
John Wayne
The fire is not discriminating. It burns anything in its path for whatever reason.
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
When the road looks rough ahead, remember the 'Man upstairs' and the word HOPE. Hang onto both and 'tough it out'.
John Wayne
Courage is being afraid and going on the journey anyhow.
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 to see a picture of mine, I want you to know that I'm not going to do anything that will make you uncomfortable. I want you to know that you won't be disappointed in me.
John Wayne
I play John Wayne in every part regardless of the character, and I've been doing okay, haven't I?
John Wayne
We're burnin' daylight!
John Wayne
I want to play a real man in all my films, and I define manhood simply: men should be tough, fair, and courageous, never petty, never looking for a fight, but never backing down from one either.
John Wayne
Sure I wave the American flag. Do you know a better flag to wave? Sure I love my country with all her faults. I'm not ashamed of that, never have been, never will be.
John Wayne
All battles are fought by scared men who'd rather be some place else.
John Wayne
This kind of war, you've gotta believe in what you're fighting for.
John Wayne
TRUE Courage is when you are scared to death and STILL saddle up and ride in!
John Wayne
Life is tough, but it's tougher when you're stupid.
John Wayne
I never trust a man that doesn't drink.
John Wayne
The guy you see on the screen isn’t really me. I’m Duke Morrison, and I never was and never will be a film personality like JOHN WAYNE . I know him well. I’m one of his closest students. I have to be. I made a living out of him.
