“It seemed like whenever a Western was going to get made, it came my way.” — Sam Elliott

I've been married one time and I have one daughter, who I love more than anyone in the world. And that's where my world is.

Nobody sets out to make a bad film - I shouldn't say 'nobody.' Some people certainly don't care.

I was never afraid of hard work.

I really never had any thought about being a legitimate actor, like a stage performer. I wanted to make movies. I wanted to do television and make movies.
