I don't believe in pessimism. If something doesn't come up the way you want, forge ahead. If you think it's going to rain, it will.

More quotes by Clint Eastwood
I'd like to be a bigger and more knowledgeable person ten years from now than I am today. I think that for all of us as we grow older, we must discipline ourselves to continue expanding, broadening, learning, keeping our minds active and open.
Clint Eastwood
I don't watch a lot of films. I'm usually involved in making them.
Clint Eastwood
Our modern society - especially in the West, and especially now - reveres youth.
Clint Eastwood
You can't stop everything from happening. But we've gotten to a point where we're certainly trying. If a car doesn't have four hundred air bags in it, then it's no good.
Clint Eastwood
I'm past doing one chin-up more than I did the day before. I just kind of do what I feel like.
Clint Eastwood
People love westerns worldwide. There's something fantasy-like about an individual fighting the elements. Or even bad guys and the elements. It's a simpler time. There's no organized laws and stuff.
Clint Eastwood
If anybody asks me what I attribute the longevity of my career to, then I say it's because I was never satisfied with being a cowboy in the plains of Spain and later I was never satisfied with just playing a detective in San Francisco, and constantly just pushing the envelope.
Clint Eastwood
The thing that haunts a man the most is what he isn't ordered to do.
Clint Eastwood

Clint Eastwood
If somebody's dumb enough to ask me to go to a political convention and say something, they're gonna have to take what they get.
Clint Eastwood
There's a lot of young guys coming along, but I'd like to say to the various financiers, don't forget the senior guys. The senior guys and gals are there, willing to do their best work for you.
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
A lot of people are bored of all the political correctness.
Clint Eastwood
I take vitamins daily, but just the bare essentials not what you'd call supplements. I try to stick to a vegan diet heavy on fruit, vegetables, tofu, and other soy products.
Clint Eastwood
Over my career I played some badass characters. So, people sometimes think I should have a .44 magnum. But that's not true, I don't have that. But I do fire them and I do enjoy target shooting and all that sort of thing. I'm not much of a hunter. I don't like killing animals, but I love to shoot.
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
I haven't been very active in politics.
Clint Eastwood
I don't really get into a big intellectual analysis of why I am going to do a certain script or not.
Clint Eastwood
I'm a firm believer in research, but I'm also a firm believer in utilizing the instincts that are within your soul or in your body or in your stomach, wherever they reside.
