I like the good feeling movies.
Robert Duvall

Sometimes directors will hire you and say, 'Oh, we love your work.' And then they start to tell you how to do it. I say, 'Hey, man, back off. You hired me to do it. Let me do it.'

Too many people think that economics is this subject that should wait until the university level. But it can't wait that long.

Image
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.

We're all travelers in this world. From the sweet grass to the packing house. Birth 'til death. We travel between the eternities.

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.

There's no right or wrong just truthful or untruthful.

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
Image
To this day, I still think Lonesome Dove is my best part.

When you shift the gear and that little needle on the tach goes into the red and reads 9,000 rpm, that's bad.

Image
I would like to ask each of you: Would you be in favor of some kind of education on birth control and if so, how would you use that as a possible solution to the ever present question of abortion.
Robert Duvall
Image
I always considered myself as a character actor. I always try to be versatile to show different sides of human experience.
Robert Duvall
Image
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.

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.

Image
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.

I wouldn't mind starting to ride some more if I had a really good horse to just work a little bit with every day.

The beginning and the end of the tango is the walk.
