More quotes by Robert Duvall
I like the good feeling movies.
Robert Duvall
I always figure from the cradle to the grave, we all have our individual journeys, and maybe my journey was a positive one and I accomplished certain things without stepping on too many toes.
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!

I take a vitamin every day it's called a steak.
Robert Duvall
When I knew nothing, I thought I could do anything.
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.

The greatest king of Israel, King David, the author of the Psalms, sent a man out to die in battle so that he could sleep with his wife.

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
You obviously don't have to be a murderer to play a murderer or you don't have to be a dictator to play a dictator. So, you're an actor. You come up with whatever you come up with to play that part.
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
Around my own friends, I like to mess around.
Robert Duvall
Cows is one thing. But one man telling another man where he can go in this country is something else.
Robert Duvall
Not every successful man is a good father. But every good father is a successful man.
Robert Duvall
Too many people think that economics is this subject that should wait until the university level. But it can't wait that long.
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
I think there are more good young actors now than ever. It's a medium that everyone wants to be connected with - it is such a hip medium going into the 21st century.
Robert Duvall
I love working in Texas anywhere.
Robert Duvall
You have a little bit of feeling for everyone you play.
Robert Duvall
Everybody likes to win.
