Clint Quotations

Your basic physical makeup does influence the parts you're offered. If you're big, they cast you either dumb or tough, although there are exceptions. Clint Eastwood and James Arness carved out niches for themselves in Westerns. I just hope I won't be faced with doing 'Li'l Abner' in dinner theater for the rest of my career.

I'm a big fan of Clint Eastwood, but the Westerns I draw from most directly come from an earlier period in Hollywood. I actually look back at movies like 'Rio Bravo' and others I've liked over the years, and I capture pictures from the movies and use them as a reference for the scenes I create.

Each director is different. Clint Eastwood and Chris Nolan are completely different, and I need to adjust to the story and character and the director and just my duty as an actor.

I'd really like to do a movie again with Tim Robbins and Clint Eastwood. They were really good guys.

I went from working with Spielberg to working with Clint Eastwood - I might as well just retire.

My dad traveled a lot, so I only usually saw him on weekends, growing up. His favorite actors in the world were Clint Eastwood and Burt Reynolds. If Clint or Burt had a movie out, we would go to the movies. He didn't like movies, generally, unless Clint or Burt were in them.

Gemmell's name guarantees a satisfying story and a thumping good read. I recommend all his heroic creations - 'Druss the axeman,' 'the Jerusalem man,' among others - but my favourite has to be 'Waylander': Clint Eastwood with a crossbow and the same 'Make my day, punk' attitude.

My favorite movie is 'The Outlaw Josey Wales' with Clint Eastwood, a guy who gets his family killed by the bad guys then goes on a journey of revenge, eventually discovering himself - very existential.

Houston is my team, always and forever. But with the new TV packages, it's so easy to watch every league in the world, and my overseas fandom is driven by the American guys. If Sunderland's on TV, I'll watch Jozy Altidore. I try to watch Geoff Cameron at Stoke. When Clint Dempsey was at Tottenham, I watched a lot of his games.

People see you on television, and they think you make the same amount of money that Clint Eastwood does. But this is PBS. All these shows are done for free.

Just because my dad is Clint Eastwood doesn't mean I don't have to work for a living.

The wonderful thing about Clint is you can never second guess how he is going to react to anything.

When you're a young boy, you're looking at older men for role modelling. Before I loved De Niro, I loved Clint Eastwood; I loved John Wayne. And James Bond.

A man becomes what he dreams. And I dreamed of being in the movies. I was brought up on Steve McQueen, Clint Eastwood, Warren Beatty, and Cary Grant.

I don't think I could do what Woody Allen or Clint Eastwood or Ben Stiller do, where they direct a movie and they star in it. I would just be like, 'Oh, I don't even want to look at my face.'

Levi, Clint and Zach held spots four through six and are running well. Calvin was our number seven and he will be challenged by the two freshmen.

I always find the more you can draw on real life characters, people, situations, it works better. Certainly for designing a character, I prefer to draw on real people rather than other guys I've seen in movies, rather than 'here's my version of Clint Eastwood' or whoever.

Like Jon Voight, Pat Boone, Kelsey Grammer, and Gary Sinise, Clint Howard is one of the few courageous enough to identify himself publicly as a conservative.

That didn't surprise me at all. Clint is just a ball magnet. He makes plays like that every day.

John Lee Hancock is someone that I had admired from afar. I think he is a wonderful director... in the tradition I would say both of Clint Eastwood and Frank Capra.

I think Clint will be the first one to tell you, he's embraced the mistakes he's made and has gone out of his way to help younger guys avoid those pitfalls. I think that says more about him than anything he'll ever do on the football field.

It is a good move for him. I hate to say that because I hate to lose him. But Clint has to do what is best for his family. There are positives here too; but I think this is a great opportunity for him.

I thought Clint Eastwood was cool in all the western movies, but I'm not gonna drive somewhere he's at and stand in line to see him. I told Missy, my wife, 'The only person I'd stand in line for is God Almighty. You made the universe? All right, I'll get in line!'

We were standing on top of the truck watching his young driver in the Busch Series, Clint Bowyer,

The 1988 biopic of bebop immortal Charlie Parker, 'Bird,' was the film that opened my eyes to Clint Eastwood's potential as a filmmaker.

We've seen great improvement out of Clint this year. He's a player who is competing for a spot on the World Cup roster and I think he demonstrated he's progressed a lot.

We've said all along that the farm system and the players who come through it are Dan's report card. Based on last year, that's a good report card. We also feel Clint has done a good job of bringing things together at the big- league level, and the players are confident in him.

To be a senior on our team, you need to be a leader or a starter. A lot of people don't know about Clint and he is an unknown to everybody except the people on our team. Second base is solid with Clint.

We did this seven, eight months ago. We decided we wanted Clint Swan. He was at the top of our list... I don't want to introduce a new basketball coach for a long time.

Westerns were all daddy liked to watch. Give me some Clint Eastwood, some Charles Bronson, and I was a happy girl. It was our father-daughter bonding.

When I was growing up, it was Clint Eastwood, it was Harrison Ford and Steve McQueen - these guys were tough. They were leading men, but they were also tough and physical.

We think we have something pretty special with Taylor and Clint up front. Pat can play on the left and the right and, with Steve Ralston out, we feel he will do a good job for us.

To be playing in a threesome with Neil Armstrong and Clint Eastwood was pretty incredible, ... For Peggy and I to be part of that was pretty heady stuff.

Do we think that Pat, Taylor and Clint can score goals? Yes, absolutely and so does the rest of the league. The law of averages says that we're going to score goals.

The three of us have a great understanding and know what we are all doing. Clint is more of an attacking mid, Danny plays more stationary, organizing everything, and me, I can be all over the place and win balls.

We always tell kids that the more pitches you see, the more you'll get to hit. Clint did a great job staying in the at-bat and driving in the run. The more pitches you see, the advantage swings to the hitter.

Originally, I think we thought that Clint was going to come in and play like a forward and Andy was going to play the attacking mid. But kind of how it evolved was Clint felt more comfortable coming back and sometimes they were in the same space and it kind of complicated things at times.

Even Clint Eastwood could not have written a better script that would pit the bulls and the bears against each other over the meaning of today's payroll report, ... The winner, however, may not be known for a while longer since the data is sufficiently murky.

We didn't give easy throws. Our coverage was pretty good until late and we were able to get to the quarterback. Guys protected well. Clint got rid of the ball well and the guys ran the routes well to get open. We mixed in some runs as well, so I'm pleased with it.

You see a Clint Eastwood movie, and you might not know if it's from Universal or Warner Bros. or another studio. He has affiliations with so many studios now, but there was a time when you'd just look at a movie and think, 'Oh, that's a Warner Bros. film.'

I love the Western genre. In fact, one of my dreams is to play a cowboy on screen, like Clint Eastwood. I don't think it's going to happen, but you can always hope.

If you have Clint Eastwood smoking, everybody will think he's manly. Or a femme fatale, Sharon Stone, people would think it's sexy. But if you have a clean and wholesome image, smoking makes you less wholesome.

I want people to re-evaluate me. My dream would be to make films like Clint Eastwood did... You have to be a self-starter out here at a certain point. It's important to take the reigns or, otherwise, you can be regaled to obscurity so quickly.

I just told Clint I'm honored that the organization has asked me to come back, but I'm not going to decide whether to come back until the season is over, ... It's a big commitment. I want to make sure the decision I make is the best for this organization and my situation.

I know everybody thinks I've got the final veto and/or approval of somebody, and I guess I do, ... But he and (linebacker) Clint Ingram by far and away had all the votes. That tells you that guys who are working with him every day believe in him, too.

Clint (Burgess) is a very strong player. He has great athletic ability and he's a player who will stay motivated throughout the season. The team will excel so much more with him because he'll keep them motivated.

Clint can run right by you and Jimmy can do a lot of things.

Clint Cochran is the guy with the best grasp of the offense right now. He has a good arm, he can run the offense and he has the most experience. So obviously he will have the early advantage.

Clint continues to build a solid argument to make the World Cup team. He's certainly making it difficult for me to make some tough decisions.

Clint did a great job coming out and getting us that one run, and it ended up being huge for us. Pretty much from one to nine, we couldn't get it going (against Linn).

Clint is a man of high integrity, and I know he wants to continue coaching basketball. Hopefully he'll get to fulfill that wish.

Clint played like a man going up against an even bigger guy.

Clint quickly developed an understanding of our defense. He's smart, runs well and is a good tackler. We're counting on him to be a great linebacker.

Clint will be alright. The trainers feel good about it. Situations like this are why we have Leon. It is great to have an experienced guy like him ready to step in, and we know he'll go a great job.

If there is a less likely sight on this earth than Clint Dempsey, the Texas trailer-park kid, doing downward-facing dog poses, or the stalwart Michael Bradley deep breathing through a tree pose, I have yet to see it.

I gave it my best effort, but Clint just beat me today. I'm going to miss being at the top of these jumps, looking out over Steamboat. It's been a lot of fun.

Because Danny holds a lot, Clint can get forward and do his stuff, and I'm free to win balls all over the park instead of in the middle.

They were more like, 'How was it on the mountaintop?' and I'd sit down and tell 'em, ... 'Wow, you can't believe this! There was Clint Eastwood over there and this other person over there.' It was amazing to be able to come back and share that with cats who may be able to achieve it, too.

It's an end of an era, and now you have guys who don't know who Clint Walker and lots of others are. And many don't even know about the business of making pictures.

In addition to being a two-time All-Conference and All-State running back for the Braves, Clint was also the state runner-up this winter in wrestling at 189 pounds. He will also compete this spring in track in the 100 meters, in which he placed fourth last year.

The first thing with Clint is that he likes to play the game. He trains exactly how he plays and goes hard every day, so on Saturdays he gets the benefit. He's always trying new things, new tricks. The biggest thing is to try and point him in the right direction about when and when not to use the tools he has.

The closest thing we have to bigger than life is Clint Eastwood, and Clint's not really bigger than life, nor would he really want to be.

This here's a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and it can blow your head clean off. Now, you must ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well do you, punk? - Clint Eastwood

It's kind of like one of the 'Dirty Harry' movies with Clint Eastwood. At the end of the film Clint says, 'A man's gotta know his limitations.'

It's so funny. Every time I sit down in the classroom, my book bag rings and it's my cell phone, and it's Joel (Schumacher) or Clint (Eastwood) going, 'Do you want to do this movie? - and I can't turn an opportunity like that down.

It's nice to finally win one. (River Run head professional) Clint (Wright) runs great tournaments, and I try to be as supportive as I can.

The young kids are coming around. Clint did a great job running our basketball program. Every school goes through a down year talent-wise. It's tough for him to leave because he thought we had some good years coming up.

What's weird is that I work with these directors and then I start channeling them. I kind of turn into them a bit - which is cool when you're working with Clint Eastwood.

This team fought hard all night. We are a very confident club right now. Last night it was Clint Robinson with the big hit. Tonight it was Blake Green that delivered big.

I can be difficult. I'll be the first to admit to that. I try! I try to Clint Black.

He played the tour because he loved the game, but he loved to play percentage golf. Clint Eastwood said a man's got to know his limitations. George would pace himself so he could clean up in the fall tournaments. He played to make a living. He knew his putter meant he didn't need to take chances.

All the boys said at the end of the game: 'Lucky it was Clint Newton'. He had a bit of speed, but lucky it wasn't the other pretty boys or it would make it a tough chase for us.
