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.

More quotes by 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
I do believe in self-help.
Clint Eastwood
I think it is more important to tell a story rather than follow any trend that is a less bold way to go. If you do that [follow trends] you are just trying to ride on the coat tails of someone else's success.
Clint Eastwood
If I'd had good discipline, I might have gone into music.
Clint Eastwood
As you get older, you change certain things.
Clint Eastwood
There are two kinds of actors -- one sits in a dressing room waiting for his call and the other gets out into the business and polishes his craft by absorbing everything. I don't know enough, I'll never learn everything I need to learn. When a guy thinks he's already learned it, he can only go backwards.
Clint Eastwood
A lot of people are realizing they had the wool pulled over their eyes by Obama.
Clint Eastwood
The more time you have to think things through, the more you have to screw it up.
Clint Eastwood
Our modern society - especially in the West, and especially now - reveres youth.
Clint Eastwood
The main thing is, you just want to have your place in history. You hope that people will look back on it in 15, 20, 30 and beyond years, and say, That was an exciting film.
Clint Eastwood
I don't believe in pessimism. If something doesn't come up the way you want, forge ahead. If you think it's going to rain, it will.
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
Nobody, I mean nobody, puts ketchup on a hot dog.
Clint Eastwood
For a man, once you've sired your pups, you're done.
Clint Eastwood
I'm just a kid. I've got a lot of stuff to do yet.
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
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
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
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 take the work seriously, you don't take yourself seriously. You keep that straight and you'll do well the rest of your life.
Clint Eastwood
