When I was young there was no respect for the young, and now that I am old there is no respect for the old
Clint Eastwood
Great stories teach you something. That's one reason I haven't slipped into some sort of retirement: I always feel like I'm learning something new.
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
There's something about the first time an actor runs the material over his or her face you know when they kind of run it through their eyes and you see the thing and there is little imperfections in it and not every line is delivered perfectly, and it doesn't have that mechanical feeling.
Clint Eastwood
A lot of people when they retire, they just expire. It happens to men more than women. Women usually have great interest in the family, because the family's always growing and they're always coming to the rescue.
Clint Eastwood
You have to steal a lot. You have to have a criminal mentality to be a film director.

I'd say people get to work and start being more understanding of everybody - instead of calling everybody names, start being more understanding. But get in there and get it done. Kick ass and take names. And this may be my dad talking, but don't spend what you don't have.
Clint Eastwood
Everybody always feels that they're right even if they're wrong and that's what a whole actor's career is built around rationalizing your way into whatever character you're playing.
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 necessarily look for dark themes they just seem to appear.
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
The prospect of dating someone in her twenties becomes less appealing as you get older. 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.
Clint Eastwood
Every man has got to know his limitations.
Clint Eastwood
Am I aging? The pros and the cons? Well, you know a lot more, at least until the time you start forgetting it all. Actually, aging can be a fun process, to some degree.
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
Extremism is so easy. You've got your position, and that's it. It doesn't take much thought. And when you go far enough to the right you meet the same idiots coming around from the left.
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.
Clint Eastwood
All I know is there's thousands of people in the Academy and a lot of them, the majority of them, haven't won Oscars.A lot of people are crying, I guess.
Clint Eastwood
I guess any movie actor can become a role model for audiences out there who enjoy him.
