Quotes

“We had a pretty good time together, when she wasn't trying to kill me!”
“In fact, I don't even call myself an actor. I'm a reactor. I listen to what to what the other guys says and I react to it. That's the John Wayne method.”
“I eat as much as I ever did, I drink more than I should, and my sex life is none of your goddamned business.”
“There's a lot of things great about life. But I think tomorrow is the most important thing. Comes in to us at midnight very clean, ya know. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday.”
“With a lot of blacks, there's quite a bit of resentment along with their dissent, and possibly rightfully so. But we can't all of a sudden get down on our knees and turn everything over to the leadership of the blacks. I believe in white supremacy until the blacks are educated to a point of responsibility. I don't believe in giving authority and positions of leadership and judgment to irresponsible people.”
“The picture business has grown up since I got into it 15 years ago, has acquired a dignity that is beyond reproach. Hollywood is, today, a quiet town compared to other places I have been and can, moreover, be pretty proud of itself, having pushed more charities, given more time to selling war bonds and more talent to entertaining servicemen than any other town in any other part of the country.”

John Wayne (nacido Marion Robert Morrison, Winterset, Iowa; 26 de mayo de 1907-Los Ángeles, California; 11 de junio de 1979), conocido popularmente como The Duke (El Duque), fue un actor y director estadounidense que comenzó su carrera en el cine mudo en la década de 1920. Fue el símbolo de lo rudo y masculino, además de ser un icono estadounidense y símbolo de Angloamérica durante muchas décadas. Es memorable el timbre distintivo de su voz, su forma de caminar y su presencia física. Es célebre su eslogan "John Wayne es Estados Unidos" al igual que su postura política conservadora y republicana, amén de su apoyo a las posturas políticas anticomunistas de la década de 1950. Tiene el récord de la mayor cantidad de papeles protagonistas en la historia del cine con 142. En 1999, el American Film Institute le otorgó el lugar #13 en su lista de las 100 Estrellas Más Grandes de Todos los Tiempos. Una encuesta Harris publicada en 2007 le otorgó el tercer lugar entre las estrellas favoritas de los Estados Unidos, la única estrella ya fallecida de la encuesta y a la vez, la única estrella que había estado apareciendo en ella todos los años. Su carrera como actor comenzó en el cine mudo de la década de 1920, pero su éxito y fama se consolidaron entre las décadas de 1940 y 1970. Su imagen ha quedado asociada, para muchos, al wéstern y el cine bélico, a pesar de que en realidad trabajó en muchos otros géneros (biografías, comedias románticas, dramas policíacos, aventuras, etc.). Falleció de cáncer de pulmón el 11 de junio de 1979, 16 días después de haber cumplido 72 años.
