JOHN WAYNEWell, there are some things a man just can’t run away from.
JOHN WAYNEYou have to be a man before you can be a gentleman.
JOHN WAYNEI don’t have to assert my virility. I think my career has shown that I’m not exactly a pantywaist. But I do take pride in my work, even to the point of being the first one on the set in the morning. I’m a professional.
JOHN WAYNEPaul Newman would have been a much more important star if he hadn’t always tried to be an anti-hero, to show the human feet of clay.
JOHN WAYNEIn my acting, I have to identify with something in the character. The big tough boy on the side of right – that’s me. Simple themes. Same me from the nuances. All I do is sell sincerity and I’ve been selling the hell out of that ever since I started.
JOHN WAYNEA man is no better than he has to be.
JOHN WAYNEI’ve always followed my father’s advice: he told me, first to always keep my word and, second, to never insult anybody unintentionally. If I insult you, you can be goddamn sure I intend to. And, third, he told me not to go around looking for trouble.
JOHN WAYNEHealthy, lusty sex is wonderful.
JOHN WAYNEI’m an American actor. I work with my clothes on. I have to. Riding a horse can be pretty tough on your legs and elsewheres.
JOHN WAYNEBut don’t get me wrong. As far as a man and a woman is concerned, I’m awfully happy there’s a thing called sex. It’s an extra something God gave us. I see no reason why it shouldn’t be in pictures. Healthy, lusty sex is wonderful.
JOHN WAYNEI’ve had three wives, six children and six grandchildren and I still don’t understand women
JOHN WAYNEI never shot nobody I didnt have to.
JOHN WAYNEI want to play a real man in all my films, and I define manhood simply: men should be tough, fair, and courageous, never petty, never looking for a fight, but never backing down from one either.
JOHN WAYNEI would like to be remembered, well… the Mexicans have a phrase, ‘Feo fuerte y formal’. Which means; he was ugly, strong and had dignity.
JOHN WAYNEWhen you stop fighting, that’s death.
