I try not to look for messages in films.
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
It's no big thing, but you make big things out of little things sometimes.

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.

I love working in Texas anywhere.
Robert Duvall
Everybody likes to win.

Not every successful man is a good father. But every good father is a successful man.

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.

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.'
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
Listening to critics is like letting Muhammad Ali decide which astronaut goes to the moon.
Robert Duvall
There's no smoking section in heaven.
Robert Duvall
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.
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
Cows is one thing. But one man telling another man where he can go in this country is something else.
Robert Duvall
Look, Hollywood's a mecca, but it's not the final answer. You pick up a camera anyplace in the world, you can make a movie.
Robert Duvall
There's no right or wrong just truthful or untruthful.

I take a vitamin every day it's called a steak.
