Casting a film is to me one of the most important things next to the writing. If you cast it properly everything takes place very easily. If you cast it improperly you're fighting an uphill battle.

More quotes by 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.

In school, I could hear the leaves rustle and go on a journey.
Clint Eastwood
I like to direct the same way that I like to be directed.

Scott's Eastwood movie Snowden sounds fascinating. I want to see it because it's about deserting your country ... for whatever reasons you have. Edward Snowden became famous for the wrong reasons, as Captain Chesley Sully Sullenberger became famous for doing something spectacular.
Clint Eastwood
To me cinema can be a much more friendly world if there's a lot of things to choose from.
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.

If you approach a film with the feeling that you are going to have some impact on society then you're liable to get carried away with yourself. Alfred Hitchcock once told me, when I was analyzing a lot of things about his pictures, Clint, you must remember, it's only a movie.
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
You change as the years go by. The more knowledge you get, the more things change in your life and circumstances change.
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
Winning the election is a good-news, bad-news kind of thing. Okay, now you're the mayor. The bad news is, now you're the mayor.
Clint Eastwood
They say marriages are made in Heaven. But so is thunder and lightning.
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
It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. You take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
