More quotes by Clint Eastwood
Kids piercing themselves, piercing their tongues, what kind of masochism is that? Is it to show you can just take it?
Clint Eastwood
I believe in my gut. Most people intellectualize their instincts away, but when you feel something, you have to go for it. A Fistful of Dollars was a great instinct for me, because here I was, a guy who's doing Rawhide.
Clint Eastwood
Every man has got to know his limitations.
Clint Eastwood
You take the work seriously, you don't take yourself seriously. You keep that straight and you'll do well the rest of your life.
Clint Eastwood
When you hang a man, you better look at him.
Clint Eastwood
Plagiarism is always the biggest thing in Hollywood.
Clint Eastwood
You have to go with your instincts. I remember when I was about to make Fistful of Dollars a big article came out that said, Italian Westerns are finished. I said, Swell. Then, of course, the film came out, and it did something. I'm so glad for the dozens of times I haven't listened along the way.
Clint Eastwood
You definitely do not do films for that particular reason. You do them for yourself, for your satisfaction of creating this thing with characters and watching these characters take on real life - that's all you care about.
Clint Eastwood
An awful lot of good movies have gone unrecognized, and an awful lot of bad movies have had tremendous recognition. As long as you keep that in mind, you are never really disappointed.
Clint Eastwood
I just make the pictures and where they fall is where they fall. If somebody likes them, that's always nice. And if they don't like them, then too bad.
Clint Eastwood
Acting to me is a very organic art form and you just go and do it. And I like to direct the same way that I like to be directed. Let me bring in what I want to bring in, and if something's wrong, just tell me about it and I'll make some corrections or adjustments. And that's what I do.
Clint Eastwood
I found out that a lot of my liberal friends weren't liberal because they weren't liberal about approaching anybody else's ideas, or at least standing for it. They started getting really animalistic about, I can't even associate with this guy. He's stupid. He's an idiot.
Clint Eastwood
Extremism is so easy. You've got your position, and that's it. It doesn't take much thought. And when you go far enough to the right you meet the same idiots coming around from the left.
Clint Eastwood
That's why I don't rehearse a lot and why I shoot a lot immediately. I have ideas of where I'd like to take the character, but we both end up going together.
Clint Eastwood
I think great movies have to have some great moments in them to bring them up to that level.
Clint Eastwood
With people in high office, the old - you go into the extreme, which is absolute power and absolute power corrupts.
Clint Eastwood
I am not a regret type person. I don't believe in regrets. Lots of things you would do differently if you'd do it again, but you don't do it again, so you don't think about it. But that goes for life in general. You're only dealing with the knowledge you have at that time.
Clint Eastwood
A Love like this happens but once in a lifetime
Clint Eastwood
I guess any movie actor can become a role model for audiences out there who enjoy him.
Clint Eastwood
Having the security of being in a series week in, week out gives you great flexibility you can experience with yourself, try a different scene different ways. If you make a mistake one week, you can look at it and say, 'Well, I won't do that again,' and you're still on the air next week.
