More quotes by 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.

There's no right or wrong just truthful or untruthful.
Robert Duvall
Cows is one thing. But one man telling another man where he can go in this country is something else.

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.

My uncle always said that I could have been a rancher.
Robert Duvall
I like the smell of toast. Coffee is okay, but I don't drink much coffee. But toast is a nice smell. You smell some toast coming from your kitchen in the morning, you know that you're involved in a domestic situation and the operation that's going on is pleasant.
Robert Duvall
I always considered myself as a character actor. I always try to be versatile to show different sides of human experience.
Robert Duvall
God does guide the lives of individuals and does fill them with the Holy Ghost.
Robert Duvall
Around my own friends, I like to mess around.
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.
