More quotes by Clint Eastwood
It's not about you. It's about them.
Clint Eastwood
At some point in your fife, your tolerance level goes down and you realize that, with someone much younger, there's nothing really to talk about. And I think we're at a point now where a lot of older women take better care of themselves, compared to the 1940s and '50s when women were programmed to figure it's all over after 30.
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
I was kind of a little disappointed when they started building a competition between Marty (Martin Scorsese) and me. I have the greatest respect for him and all the films he's done over the years.
Clint Eastwood
As you get older, you're not afraid of doubt. Doubt isn't running the show. You take out all the self-agonizing.
Clint Eastwood
The best part of aging in this business is losing that obsession about work and being able to spend a little more time with family.
Clint Eastwood
I would like to be interpreted as a liberal libertarian, like leave everybody alone and let them do their own thing.
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
I don't watch a lot of films. I'm usually involved in making them.
Clint Eastwood
I think as you get older, you find you can play more things because you're moving to a different category. You play a certain thing as a younger man, playing action roles like I did. Then I moved out, and I kept trying to do different things all the time.
Clint Eastwood
I haven't killed anybody all day. Help me keep it that way.
Clint Eastwood
I think great movies have to have some great moments in them to bring them up to that level.
Clint Eastwood
Nobody wants to make something that displeases people, but once you make a film, that's out of your control and you can't think about that. You just have to follow your head and make sure that you're satisfied by putting down what you intended.
Clint Eastwood
When you're an actor, you're so busy: people are always coming up to you and pulling your collar, making sure that things fit, brushing your hair and you're always being yanked up, so finally when you're behind a camera, you're just a slob.
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
Plagiarism is always the biggest thing in Hollywood.
Clint Eastwood
[FBI] philosophy is Go ahead and make the story you want to make, and hopefully we'll love it. So that's that.
Clint Eastwood
I never considered myself a cowboy, because I wasn`t. But I guess when I got into cowboy gear I looked enough like one to convince people that I was.
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
Abuse of power isn't limited to bad guys in other nations. It happens in our own country if we're not vigilant.
