More quotes by Clint Eastwood
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.
Clint Eastwood
You can't stop everything from happening. But we've gotten to a point where we're certainly trying. If a car doesn't have four hundred air bags in it, then it's no good.
Clint Eastwood
Scott Eastwood always came in and did a good job. And he's now graduated to better roles, and the chicks are all calling and asking where Scott is. They used to ask where I was. Now they're going, What about Scott?
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
I'm interested in the fact that the less secure a man is, the more likely he is to have extreme prejudice.
Clint Eastwood
With people in high office, the old - you go into the extreme, which is absolute power and absolute power corrupts.
Clint Eastwood
It's always fun to talk about jazz.

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 keep working because I learn something new all the time.
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
The more time you have to think things through, the more you have to screw it up.
Clint Eastwood
My whole life has been one big improvisation.
Clint Eastwood
I haven't killed anybody all day. Help me keep it that way.
Clint Eastwood
Everybody wants to make something they think is a surefire winner, though nobody knows what a surefire winner is, in my opinion.
Clint Eastwood
I've always told my son Scott the same thing: Don't rush into anything, because there's gonna be a lot of fish in the sea. You can be one of the people that's lucky enough not to become a loser two and three and four times over like people do, just by being a little more patient.
Clint Eastwood
If the director's a communist, whatever, he's a communist. All I care is that he directs. For the actor, the same thing. All you really care is that he comes in and performs.
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
You have to be realistic about where you are in life and enjoy it.
Clint Eastwood
I think being able to age gracefully is a very important talent. It is too late for me.
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.
