More quotes by Clint Eastwood
Kids piercing themselves, piercing their tongues, what kind of masochism is that? Is it to show you can just take it?
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
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
Hollywood seems to succumb to fads. Well, action films do well. Give me violence. Give me a scene where there's a couple of car chases or shooting and stuff like that. They're forgetting the fact that there's a basic structure to a story that is essential to making it really broad and appealing.
Clint Eastwood
A lot of people are bored of all the political correctness.

Whether you like it or not, you're forced to come to the realisation that death is out there. But I don't fear death, I'm a fatalist. I believe when it's your time, that's it. It's the hand you're dealt.
Clint Eastwood
The country has come a long way in race relations, but the pendulum swings so far back. Everyone wants to be so sensitive.
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

Clint Eastwood
If I'd had good discipline, I might have gone into music.
Clint Eastwood
If you think it's going to rain, it will.
Clint Eastwood
I never look back and think too much about my films. I've done some work I've been proud of over the years but which of them is my favourite I really don't know. I could say the last one. I've had little jumps in my career like Unforgiven possibly.
Clint Eastwood
I like to direct the same way that I like to be directed.
Clint Eastwood
You definitely do not do films for that particular reason. You do them for yourself, for your satisfaction of creating this thing with characters and watching these characters take on real life - that's all you care about.
Clint Eastwood
If a person doesn't change, there's something really wrong with him.
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'm more focused on making a scene seem real as opposed to perfect.
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
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.
