- (in interview with Time magazine) Clayton Moore: I came to Hollywood to play either a policeman or a cowboy. Playing 'The Lone Ranger' gives me the opportunity to play both at the same time. I like playing the good guy. I'll wear the white hat for the rest of my life. The Lone Ranger is a great character, a great American. Playing him made me a better person.

- Clayton Moore: Once I got the Lone Ranger role, I didn't want any other. I was playing the good guy.
