John Wayne

John Wayne
My favorite four-letter words are 'hard work'.
John Wayne
I play John Wayne in every part regardless of the character, and I've been doing okay, haven't I?
John Wayne
I didn't vote for him, but he's my President, and I hope he does a good job.
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
Sure I wave the American flag. Do you know a better flag to wave?
