RIP Maureen O'Hara
« on: October 24, 2015, 12:45:55 PM »
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

I can't think of a movie she was in that I didn't like.

Same here.

RIP dear lady. You will always be a class act.

With the first link the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.

A very classy lady from back in the day when movie actors were expected to be able to sing and dance as well as believable repeat lines.

I hope that the saying "They don't make them like that any more" proves to be untrue.

stay safe.
If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Interesting that The Quiet Man was her favorite film. It's also one of my favorites.

One of my favorite John Wayne, as well as my favoritite Maureen O'Hara movies as well! She was a real class act!

One of my favorites as well, immensely talented and he movies with John Wayne are all classics.  She was able to shine on her own as well.

Pure class and we don't see the likes of her anymore.  She will be missed.


RIP, ma'am.  You were wonderful.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
