Olive Carey Quotes:

William 'Billy the Kid' Bonney: I haven't met a man yet that a bullet couldn't stop.
Dr. Henrietta Hull: But he isn't a man!


Lars Jorgensen: It's this country killed my boy. Yes by golly I tell you, Ethan...
Mrs. Jorgensen: No Lars. It just so happens we be Texicans. Texican is nothing but a human man way out on a limb. This year and next, and maybe for a hundred more. But I don't think it'll be forever. Some day this country's gonna be a fine, good place to be. Maybe it needs our bones in the ground before that time can come.

Olive Carey Facts
Olive's father, George Fuller Golden, was one of the founders of The White Rats of America, the first American union of vaudeville artists in 1900. It took its name from the British guild, The Water Rats ("Rats" being "Star" backwards).

Sister of actress Ruth Fuller Golden.

Sent a young GM Junior Executive to friends in the film industry for a screen test. She was notified some weeks later that the young man, although handsome, intelligent, well spoken and photogenic, would not be usable as an actor. Reason: He had a strange walk that was not correctable. Olive persisted in her backing of this young man, Marion Morrison, and he went on to become the legendary actor, John Wayne. The Duke never forgot Olive's kindness. Not only did the two become life-long friends, but he made provisions to have Olive and her husband, Harry, as extras in all his big movies. After Harry Carey's death, Olive continued to work as an extra in all Wayne's movies.
