Who was John Wayne? / Facts
- Prolific - While he stated that he did not resemble his characters played on screen, he still did a convincing job, staring in 162 feature films over his career.
- Superstitious - No one ever passed salt directly to him, it had to be laid on the table. Also there could be no hat on top of the bed.
- Sense of humor - Ward Bond was his prank buddy. They made a bet at one point that they could stand on opposite sides of a newspaper and Wayne would not be able to punch him. He put a sheet of a newspaper in a doorway and suddenly closed the door, saying "Try and hit me now!". And the Duke did just that, through the door and sending Bond to the floor, winning the bet.
- Humble - After winning the Best Actor Oscar for True Grit, he whispered to presenter Barbara Streisand's ear, "beginner's luck". He certainly had it for a long time.

Quotes
- "The guy you see on the screen isn't really me. I'm Duke Morrison, and I never was and never will be a film personality like John Wayne. I know him well. I'm one if his closest students. I have to be. I make a living out of him".
- "Courage is being scared to death but saddling up anyway."
- "One day a guy in the next stall recognised me and turned towards me and said 'John Wayne you're my favourite actor! And p----d all over my suede shoes. So don't wear them when you're famous, kid."
- "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."
