More quotes by Robert Duvall
Sometimes you don't prepare much. I mean, when I did 'Lonesome Dove' way back I rode horses day and night for like three or four months, and that got me ready for that.
Robert Duvall
Way, way, way back I played a little bit, but I am definitely not a golfer. You know, it just takes too much time anyway during the course of the day.
Robert Duvall
I've always remembered something Sanford Meisner, my acting teacher, told us. When you create a character, it's like making a chair, except instead of making someting out of wood, you make it out of yourself. That's the actor's craft - using yourself to create a character.
Robert Duvall
As long as they keep offering me some good parts and so forth - there are some parts out there that fit me pretty well - I'll keep going for a while.
Robert Duvall
What people don't understand about Sarah Palin is that she is a rancher's wife. From Alberta down to Texas I've known women like that: good common sense, bright and vilified by city people.
Robert Duvall
When you shift the gear and that little needle on the tach goes into the red and reads 9,000 rpm, that's bad.
Robert Duvall
To this day, I still think Lonesome Dove is my best part.
Robert Duvall
I'll keep on acting 'til they wipe the drool. I like the business. I like to do different parts and diverse characters. I haven't lost my enthusiasm yet!
Robert Duvall
We're all travelers in this world. From the sweet grass to the packing house. Birth 'til death. We travel between the eternities.
Robert Duvall
I was fortunate in the last century to be in the two biggest hits film-wise, Godfather I and Godfather II, and Lonesome Dove.
Robert Duvall
There's no right or wrong just truthful or untruthful.
Robert Duvall
I'm a man without a corporation.
Robert Duvall
We either accept weaknesses in good people or we have to tear pages out of the Bible.
Robert Duvall
The beginning and the end of the tango is the walk.
Robert Duvall
It's like kids playing house: 'You play the father, I'll play the mother.' You know, you dress up, you play, they pay, you go home. It's a game - acting's a game.
Robert Duvall
What drives me is I love my profession. I love to do it.
Robert Duvall
You know, Hollywood sometimes tends to patronize the interior of the United States. As Horton Foote used to say, the great Texas playwright, that a lot of people from New York don't know what goes on beyond the South Jersey Shore.
Robert Duvall
You have a little bit of feeling for everyone you play.
Robert Duvall
God does guide the lives of individuals and does fill them with the Holy Ghost.
Robert Duvall
I love working in Texas anywhere.
