John Wayne Quotes About Film

Quotes about: Film

• The guy you see on the screen isn’t really me. I’m Duke Morrison, and I never was and never will be a film personality like JOHN WAYNE . I know him well. I’m one of his closest students. I have to be. I made a living out of him.

  John Wayne

  Personality, Guy, Dukes

• I 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 Wayne

  Real, Fighting, Men

• Don't ever for a minute make the mistake of looking down your nose at westerns. They're art - the good ones, I mean. They deal in life and sudden death and primitive struggle, and with the basic emotions - love, hate, and anger - thrown in. We'll have westerns films as long as the cameras keep turning. The fascination that the Old West has will never die. And as long as people want to pay money to see me act, I'll keep on making westerns until the day I die.

  John Wayne

  Art, Mistake, Hate

• I don't want ever to appear in a film that would embarrass a viewer. A man can take his wife, mother, and his daughter to one of my movies and never be ashamed or embarrassed for going.

  John Wayne

  Daughter, Mother, Men
