Nobody ever saw a cowboy on the psychiatrist's couch.

I'm the stuff men are made of!

Republic. I like the sound of the word. It means people can live free, talk free, go or come, buy or sell, be drunk or sober, however they choose. Some words give you a feeling.

I 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.

I play John Wayne in every part regardless of the character, and I've been doing okay, haven't I?

There's right and there's wrong. You got to do one or the other. You do the one and you're living. You do the other and you may be walking around, but you're dead as a beaver hat.

Sometimes I wonder whose side God's on.
