More quotes by 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
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 don't know how everybody else feels, but I just long for reality rather than these made-up things.
Clint Eastwood
Self-respect leads to self-discipline.
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
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'm not really conservative. I'm conservative on certain things. I believe in less government. I believe in fiscal responsibility and all those things that maybe Republicans used to believe in but don't any more.
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
If you cast a film incorrectly, then you're going to be fighting an uphill battle.
Clint Eastwood
If you think it's going to rain, it will.
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 just kind of had my own impressions growing up with Hoover as a heroic figure in the 40s - actually the 30s, 40s, and 50s and beyond - but this was all prior to the information age so we didn't know about Hoover except what was usually in the papers, and this was fun, because this was a chance to go into it [ during filming 'J. Edgar Hoover' ]
Clint Eastwood
I know what you're thinking 'Did he fire six shots or only five?
Clint Eastwood
Romney and Ryan would do a much better job running the country, and that's what everybody needs to know.
Clint Eastwood
You're as young as you feel. As young as you want to be. There's an old saying I heard from a friend of mine. People ask him, Why do you look so good at your age? He'll say, Because I never let the old man in. And there's truth to that. It's in your mind, how far you let him come in.
Clint Eastwood
In America, instead of making the audience come to the film, the idea seems to be for you to go to the audience. They come up with the demographics for the film and then the film is made and sold strictly to that audience.
Clint Eastwood
We don't even know who's in the Academy.
Clint Eastwood
Tomorrow is promised to no one.
Clint Eastwood
When you hang a man, you better look at him.
Clint Eastwood
I'm just naturally gravitating towards different things. As you mature, different subject matters. And as you're older, you can't play as many parts, or you shouldn't be playing the parts that you used to play. But also there's the opportunity to play parts that you couldn't have.
