1. “Life's hard. It's even harder when you're stupid.” ― John Wayne
2. “Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway.” ― John Wayne
3. “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.” ― John Wayne
4. “You're short on ears and long on mouth.” ― John Wayne
5. “A man deserves a second chance, but keep an eye on him.” ― John Wayne
6. “I've always followed my father's advice: he told me, first to always keep my word and, second, to never insult anybody unintentionally. If I insult you, you can be g@ddamn sure I intend to. And, third, he told me not to go around looking for trouble. ” ― John Wayne
7. “I'd like to know why well-educated idiots keep apologizing for lazy and complaining people who think the world owes them a living.” ― John Wayne
8. “Never apologize, mister, it’s a sign of weakness.” ― John Wayne
9. “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.” ― John Wayne
10. “Talk low, Talk slow, and Don't say too much.” ― John Wayne
11. “My hope and prayer is that everyone know and love our country for what she really is and what she stands for.” ― John Wayne
12. “All battles are fought by scared men who'd rather be some place else.” ― John Wayne
13. “A man's got to do what a man's got to do.” ― John Wayne
14. “We’re burnin’ daylight.” ― John Wayne
15. “It's getting to be ri-g@$Damn-diculous.” ― John Wayne
16. “If you've got them by the b@lls their hearts and minds will follow.” ― John Wayne

21. “Tomorrow hopes we have learned something from yesterday.” ― John Wayne
22. “Government has no wealth, and when a politician promises to give you something for nothing, he must first confiscate that wealth from you -- either by direct taxes, or by the cruelly indirect tax of inflation.” ― John Wayne
23. “The worst part of it has been, I think, the adverse effect on family life. It kills off family conversation. And it’s harder to get your children to read books. I became a confirmed reader when I was growing up in Glendale. I’ve loved reading all my life. Now I’ve got this daughter, Aissa, a very bright young lady -- but it is a hard job to get her to read. Television’s just too easy.” ― John Wayne
24. “I would think somebody like Jane Fonda and her idiot husband would be terribly ashamed and saddened that they were a part of causing us to stop helping the South Vietnamese. Now look what’s happening. They’re getting killed by the millions. Murdered by the millions. How the hell can she and her husband sleep at night?” ― John Wayne
25. “The hyphenated American is ridiculous. But that’s what we have to put up with. I think that any person that’s in the United States is better off here than they would be where they came from.” ― John Wayne

My dad loved that guy. In a manly way, hahaha. But John Wayne did a picture at Los Alamos testing range. The result, he died of cancer which was probably the culprit.

Yeah, 4 and 10. are funny too.

From his movie "True Grit" after Ned Pepper insulted him one too many times. "FILL YOUR HANDS, YOU SUNNABITCH!!!" There's many I'd liked to have said and done that you. Classic John Wayne.
