I try not to look for messages in films.
Robert Duvall
My uncle always said that I could have been a rancher.
Robert Duvall
Listening to critics is like letting Muhammad Ali decide which astronaut goes to the moon.
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
When I knew nothing, I thought I could do anything.
Robert Duvall
If you don't daydream and kind of plan things out in your imagination, you never get there. So you have to start someplace.
Robert Duvall
The beginning and the end of the tango is the walk.
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.

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
If you don't have heroes in the beginning, you don't grow.

Robert Duvall
Around my own friends, I like to mess around.
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
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
I take a vitamin every day it's called a steak.
Robert Duvall
Cows is one thing. But one man telling another man where he can go in this country is something else.
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
I like the good feeling movies.
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
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.
