A Love like this happens but once in a lifetime
Clint Eastwood
When a naked man is chasing a woman through an alley with a butcher knife and a hard-on, I figure he isn't out collecting for the Red Cross.
Clint Eastwood
Hillary Clinton has made a lot of dough out of being a politician. I gave up dough to be a politician. I'm sure that Ronald Reagan gave up dough to be a politician.
Clint Eastwood
Every story has its demands.
Clint Eastwood
Libertarian: everyone leaves everyone else alone
Clint Eastwood
I'm past doing one chin-up more than I did the day before. I just kind of do what I feel like.
Clint Eastwood
The story [for the western genre] is everything. Whether it's a book or a screenplay, the story drives everything. And if you just go out and try to make one by putting on boots and jumping on a horse and riding off... If you don't have the material, the characters and the things to overcome and conflicts that give life to drama, you don't have it.
Clint Eastwood
We don't even know who's in the Academy.
Clint Eastwood
When I see a story, I ask: is this something I'd like to be in? Is this something I'd like to see? And if I'd like to see it, would I like to tell it?
Clint Eastwood
Dyin' ain't much of a living, boy.
Clint Eastwood
I love every aspect of the creation of motion pictures and I guess I am committed to it for life.
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
I don't believe in pessimism.
Clint Eastwood
What Trump is onto is, he's just saying what's on his mind. And sometimes it's not so good. And sometimes it's... I mean, I can understand where he's coming from, but I don't always agree with it.
Clint Eastwood
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
Everybody puts importance in money on a film set.
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
It's always fun to talk about jazz.
Clint Eastwood
I'd have to go for Donald Trump ... you know, 'cause Hillary Clinton is declared that she's gonna follow in Barack Obama's footsteps. There's been just too much funny business on both sides of the aisle. She's made a lot of dough out of being a politician.
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.
