John Wayne

Recommended Posts

Given a ceratin member's obvious affinity with a certain all time great american and sorely missed actor. No names no pack drill just follow my eyes :wink:

 

I wonder why we haven't had any references to the great man so I thought I'd start one with ''all time great John Wayne one liners.''

 

Here's mine first one. 'Never apologise it's a sign of weakness' ( I think that came from 'She Wore a Yellow Ribbon' but no doubt I'll get hammered if I got that wrong)!

 

What's yours?

"Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway."

 

I think it's from one of his films. It sure sounds like him. :wink:

"Women have the right to work wherever they want, as long as they have the dinner ready when you get home"

A hilariously funny but "wrong" one...Made me laugh!

 

"Life is tough, but it's tougher when you're stupid."

One i actually disagree with!

 

"Talk low, talk slow and don't say too much."

 

"Healthy, lusty sex is wonderful"

I love this man!! He's my alltime hero!

 

"I'm the stuff men are made of"

Hahaha! Nice attitude!

 

"There were great numbers of people who needed new land, and the Indians were selfishly trying to keep it for themselves"

Another controversial one..... Takes guts (or NO brains) to say that out loud!

 

"I'll have you spread-eagled on a wagon wheel."

And my parents told me everything was better, nicer and more civilized in the old days...

 

:rofl:

"I won't be wronged. I won't be insulted. I won't be laid a-hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same from them."

"Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes into us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday. "

 

Made the pilgrimage to Winterset, Iowa, it was humbling.

PATRON: "I see you guys have John Wayne toilet paper in your bathrooms."

 

STAFF MEMBER: "Why would you think that sir?"

 

PATRON: "Because it's rough, tough, and doesn't take crap off of anyone."
