John Wayne – The whole idea of our business is illusion.

The whole idea of our business is illusion. They’re getting away from that now putting electric squibs in livers and blowing them up in slow motion and having blood all over everything. I mean it’s not that there is more violence in the pictures today, it’s that it’s done with such a bad taste! That people turn their stomachs not their emotional insides are affected. That turns their stomachs.

John Wayne, 1975
