I'm a man without a corporation.
Robert Duvall
The beginning and the end of the tango is the walk.
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
Cows is one thing. But one man telling another man where he can go in this country is something else.

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

Robert Duvall
It's a cyclical thing. When they make one, everyone loves them. Different genres come around in succession. People always welcome the western. It's America's genre.
Robert Duvall
Everybody likes to win.
Robert Duvall
Listening to critics is like letting Muhammad Ali decide which astronaut goes to the moon.
Robert Duvall
You have a little bit of feeling for everyone you play.
Robert Duvall
My uncle always said that I could have been a rancher.
Robert Duvall
I like the good feeling movies.
Robert Duvall
I love going to black churches, and I love some of these black preachers. The best preacher I ever saw in my life was a 93-year-old in a black church in Hamilton, Virginia. What a preacher!
Robert Duvall
We either accept weaknesses in good people or we have to tear pages out of the Bible.
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.
