"I haven't been very active in politics...." - Quote by Clint Eastwood

“Directing is more like you're being a psychologist and you're kind of analyzing the situation and evaluating each person for their idiosyncrasies.”

“I want the troops from Great Britain and the U.S. to be successful, but by the same token, Afghanistan has always been a screw-up.”

“When I look back on my life, I don't have regrets about what I didn't do. If I'd become a musician, it could have ruined my life.”

“A majority held in restraint by constitutional checks and limitations, and always changing easily with deliberate changes of popular opinions and sentiments, is the only true sovereign of a free people. Whoever rejects it does of necessity fly to anarchy or to despotism. Unanimity is impossible. The rule of a minority, as a permanent arrangement, is wholly inadmissible; so that, rejecting the majority principle, anarchy or despotism in some form is all that is left.”

“Any judicial nominee who has said that the Constitution means what it says, not what judges would like it to mean, is going to be called an 'extremist.' That person will be said to be 'out of the mainstream.' But the mainstream is itself the problem.”

“I don't see the world as something divided between right and left.”

“Two of my favorite things are sitting on my front porch smoking a pipe of sweet hemp, and playing my Hohner harmonica.”

“My hair grows and grows; you cannot stop it - that fellow grows, it grows wild.”

“If I had as many love affairs as I've been given credit for, I'd be in a jar at the Harvard Medical School.”
