John Wayne
Life is tough pilgrim, it is even tougher if you're stupid
John Wayne
I don't feel we did wrong in taking this great country away from them. There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves.
John Wayne
Women have the right to work wherever they want, as long as they have the dinner ready when you get home.
John Wayne
Government has no wealth, and when a politician promises to give you something for nothing, he must first confiscate that wealth from you -- either by direct taxes, or by the cruelly indirect tax of inflation.
John Wayne
A man ought to do what he thinks is right
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
