  • Names Quotes

    I don't care whether a role is 10 minutes long or two hours. And I don't care whether my name is up there on top, either. Matter of fact, I'd rather have someone else get top billing; then if the picture bombs, he gets the blame, not me.
  • Thinking Quotes

    Writers used to make such wonderful pictures without all that swearing, all that cursing. And now it seems that you can't say three words without cursing. And I don't think that's right.
  • Men Quotes

    I wouldn't trade those 10 years for anything. The Navy taught me a lot of things. It molded me as a man, and I made a lot of wonderful friends.
  • Numbers Quotes

    I've been to a number of places and seen for myself the caliber of people who are in the Navy today - in all the services for that matter. This is an altogether different bunch. These people of today are really bright, young, good people.
  • Active Quotes

    I just want to do more work. Every time I step in front of a camera I feel young again. I really do. It keeps your mind active and it keeps you going.
  • Housework Quotes

    My mother made me do all the housework as a boy. I still do it, even in hotels.
  • To this day I clean better than most maids.
  • Cameras Quotes

    The trick is not to become somebody else. You become somebody else when you're in front of a camera or when you're on stage. There are some people who carry it all the time. That, to me, is not acting.
  • Heart Quotes

    I don't chart out the life histories of the people I play. If I did, I'd be in trouble. I work with my heart and my head, and naturally emotions follow.
  • Jobs Quotes

    I got a job immediately after leaving high school; I was lucky - three dollars a week and all I could eat, working on a vegetable truck.
  • Believe Quotes

    The Navy has changed a great deal. Not that the officers of my day were bad, because I served under a lot of good officers, believe me. But there were a few bad ones, too.
  • Moral Quotes

    Everything I do has a moral to it.
  • Stars Quotes

    The Oscar made me a star, and I'm grateful. But I feel had I not won the Oscar I wouldn't have gotten into the messes I did in my personal life.
  • Putting Quotes

    Even radar was unheard of when I first went into the service. Then suddenly, they started putting bedsprings up on the tops of ships.
  • Revert Quotes

    Talk about cowboys. That's my passion. I think it's just wonderful when the studios revert back to doing westerns again.
  • Bimbo Quotes

    I had a horse in Mexico one time that I rode. He was just bones when I got him. I started feeding him bread and everything else. I called him Bimbo after the bread down there. "Here Bimbo," and he'd come running. He knew me, God bless him. I often wondered what happened to him.
  • Depression Quotes

    I'm what you call a Depression sailor.
  • Giving Quotes

    It's not your word that matters, it's who you give it too.
  • Pain Quotes

    You get kicked around long enough, you become a professor of pain.
  • Alive Quotes

    If John Wayne were alive, he’d be rolling over in his grave!
  • Mother Quotes

    Fathers and mothers are just people, which means they make mistakes. Don't hold that against them. Whatever flaws they may have, they created you in a moment of love, and are among the few who knew you when. When they're gone, there won't be anyone to take their place.
  • Steps Quotes

    Every time I step in front of a camera I feel young again. I really do. It keeps your mind active and it keeps you going.
  • Funny Things Quotes

    It was my mom who told me, "Ernie, if you make even one person happy with your smile or a funny thing you did every day, you'll have accomplished a great deal." And that's all I've ever tried to do.
