MINI BIO:
Fair-haired, blue-eyes, hard-headed American actor who looked to be a real find in the early sixties but proved disappointing in the leading roles of several big films (perhaps the wrong kind?) and was shunted into routine action thrillers and westerns. Found belated popularity as leader of TV's The A-Team. Married (divorced, remarried, and divorced) to Elizabeth Ashley from 1966 to 1972. He married his fifth wife in 1992. Died from pneumonia.

George Peppard Quotes:
Holly Golightly:
How do I look?
Paul Varjak: Very good. I must say, I'm amazed.
Holly Golightly: But just look at the goodies she brought with her.
Paul Varjak: He's all right, I suppose, if you like dark, handsome, rich-looking men with passionate natures and too many teeth.
Paul Varjak: You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-you-are? You're chicken, you've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, life's a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a "wild thing," and you're terrified somebody's gonna stick you in a cage. Well baby, you're already in that cage. You built it yourself. And it's not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somali-land. It's wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself.

Paul Varjak: Here. I've been carrying this thing around for months. I don't want it anymore.
