I'm a widower with three sons and seven grandchildren. One of my sons is my partner on the ranch.

I'm not anybody's judge; I don't know what motivates people to do what they do. But I have a lot of admiration for anybody who can start with absolutely nothing and make a little something out of it.

I resent the fact that people in places like Boston, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco believe that they should be able to tell us how to live our lives, operate our businesses, and what to do with the land that we love and cherish.

Everybody that's an actor leaves it for a while 'cause they ain't got a job.

I live on a ranch in Utah for now, but I'm gonna move. I've got another ranch to move to, but its location is a secret. When I get there, I'm gonna plow the road in behind me.

I didn't go to acting school, but I've been observing my fellow man for 66 years now, and I would think that's the best school there is.

Well, we all are what we are, I guess you might say by an accident of birth.
