strong-women empowering empowerment
A man's got to do what a man's got to do.
black-and-white reality conservative
If everything isn't black and white, I say, 'Why the hell not?'
hate simple nuance
I stick to simple themes. Love. Hate. No nuances. I stay away from psychoanalyst's couch scenes. Couches are good for one thing.
running men western-movie
Well, there are some things a man just can't run away from.
horse clothes legs
I'm an American actor. I work with my clothes on. I have to. Riding a horse can be pretty tough on your legs and elsewheres.
trying liberty libertarian
It rankles me when somebody tries to force somebody to do something.
shots
I never shot nobody I didnt have to.
cowboy men
I never killed a man I didn't have to.
hurt children love-you
Getting rid of a man without hurting his masculinity is a problem. "Get out" and "I never want to see you again" might sound like a challenge. If you want to get rid of a man, I suggest saying, "I love you. . . . I want to marry you. . . . I want to have your children." Sometimes they leave skid marks.
funny hate heart
All men hate to hear "We need to talk about our relationship." These seven words strike fear in the heart of even General Schwartzkopf.
land america way
America is the land of freedom and that’s the way I enjoy living.
long people want
A long time ago, I made me a rule. I let people do what they want to do.
looks lines twenties
One look that works is better than twenty lines of dialogue.
thinking would-be united-states
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.
