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
A man ought to do what he thinks is right
John Wayne
TRUE Courage is when you are scared to death and STILL saddle up and ride in!
