More quotes by Clint Eastwood
You get to a certain age and you're just glad to be there. I don't know what to add to that. It's fun. You have to be a realist, so you try to look for roles that are within the age you are.
Clint Eastwood
It's what people know about themselves inside that makes them afraid.
Clint Eastwood
Most people who'll remember me, if at all, will remember me as an action guy, which is okay. There's nothing wrong with that. But there will be a certain group which will remember me for the other films, the ones where I took a few chances. At least, I like to think so.
Clint Eastwood
Are you going to pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?
Clint Eastwood
Once you finish a film, it doesn't belong to you anymore - it belongs to the audience to interpret it the way they feel like interpreting.
Clint Eastwood
I'd like to be a bigger and more knowledgeable person ten years from now than I am today. I think that for all of us as we grow older, we must discipline ourselves to continue expanding, broadening, learning, keeping our minds active and open.
Clint Eastwood
There are so many parallels in society today [with era of J. Edgar Hoover ] that you can use, whether it's the head of a studio or the head of an organization, a major newspaper, a major factory or company, of people who stay too long, maybe, and overstay their usefulness.
Clint Eastwood
Self-respect leads to self-discipline.
Clint Eastwood
People love westerns worldwide. There's something fantasy-like about an individual fighting the elements. Or even bad guys and the elements. It's a simpler time. There's no organized laws and stuff.
Clint Eastwood
When you're young, you're very reckless. Then you get conservative. Then you get reckless again.
Clint Eastwood
I had three points I wanted to make. That not everybody in Hollywood is on the left, that Obama has broken a lot of promises he made when he took office, and that the people should feel free to get rid of any politician who's not doing a good job. But I didn't make up my mind exactly what I was going to say until I said it.
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
There's nothing like a nice piece of hickory.
Clint Eastwood
My father had a couple of kids at the beginning of the Depression. There was not much employment. Not much welfare. People barely got by. People were tougher then.
Clint Eastwood
I always thought what an interesting idea because almost everybody's fascinated by the perpetrator of a crime very few people study what happens to people for the rest of their lives, and how it affects not only that particular character but other characters around him as well.
Clint Eastwood
As you get older you try to do things that please you more. You get a little more selfish. You start thinking I want to do things where I enjoy myself.
Clint Eastwood
I always like to try different things, different genres stories that have a dramatic element and can generate conflict which I find appealing where the characters have to overcome obstacles. That kind of thing is challenging.
Clint Eastwood
I haven't killed anybody all day. Help me keep it that way.
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
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.
