More quotes by 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 don't necessarily look for dark themes they just seem to appear.
Clint Eastwood
I think it is more important to tell a story rather than follow any trend that is a less bold way to go. If you do that [follow trends] you are just trying to ride on the coat tails of someone else's success.
Clint Eastwood
There's a rebel lying deep in my soul. Anytime anybody tells me the trend is such and such, I go the opposite direction. I hate the idea of trends. I hate imitation I have a reverence for individuality.
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
I haven't been very active in politics.
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
A Love like this happens but once in a lifetime
Clint Eastwood
I think great movies have to have some great moments in them to bring them up to that level.
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
Hillary Clinton has made a lot of dough out of being a politician. I gave up dough to be a politician. I'm sure that Ronald Reagan gave up dough to be a politician.
Clint Eastwood
First, I blow a hole in your face then I go back inside, and sleep like a baby... I guarantee you.
Clint Eastwood
I'm interested in the fact that the less secure a man is, the more likely he is to have extreme prejudice.
Clint Eastwood
Everybody thinks making films back to back is a big deal but they did it all the time in the old days.
Clint Eastwood
Always keep your ego in check and not be afraid to listen. Listening is a great art form.
Clint Eastwood
I mean, I've always been a libertarian. Leave everybody alone. Let everybody else do what they want. Just stay out of everybody else's hair.
Clint Eastwood
If you read any of the biographies on J. Edgar Hoover, you find that they contradict each other more than they agree. Often times, they're often told from a political perspective.
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
Every story has its demands.
Clint Eastwood
I don't have any great pickup lines. I was never an extrovert, so I always had to have someone meet me halfway. If she was interested, we'd come together, and if not ... When I became a movie actor and became well-known, it took care of itself. Maybe that's why I became an actor.
