“I believe in my gut. Most people intellectualize their instincts away, but when you feel something, you have to go for it. A Fistful of Dollars was a great instinct for me, because here I was, a guy who’s doing Rawhide.”

We are like boxers, one never knows how much longer one has.

You can’t stop everything from happening. But we’ve gotten to a point where we’re certainly trying. If a car doesn’t have four hundred air bags in it, then it’s no good.

Of course we all know Biden is the intellect of the Democratic Party. Kind of a grin with a body behind it.

Plagiarism is always the biggest thing in Hollywood.

You have to trust your instincts. There is a moment when an actor has it, and he knows it.

Always keep your ego in check and not be afraid to listen. Listening is a great art form.

It’s what people know about themselves inside that makes them afraid.

There’s a rebel lying deep in my soul. Anytime anybody tells me the trend is such and such, I go the opposite direction. I hate the idea of trends. I hate imitation; I have a reverence for individuality.

I’m trying to preach the idea that if we don’t pay attention to history we’re destined to repeat it.

If you want a guarantee, buy a toaster.

Improvise, Adapt and Overcome!

Self-respect leads to self-discipline.

Being comfortable is over-rated.

If you’re afraid to take risks in anything in life, it’s just boredom.

I’m not really conservative. I’m conservative on certain things. I believe in less government. I believe in fiscal responsibility and all those things that maybe Republicans used to believe in but don’t any more.

The interesting thing with child actors is that kids are natural actors. They’re wonderful actors, and most kids are acting all the time. They’re imagining they’re out in the yard playing. They’re imagining that things happened, and they can get very vivid.

The art of living is the art of knowing how to believe lies.

If you believe in subjective morality, why do you lock your doors at night?

Believe with all your heart that you will do what you were made to do.

Our persona was not created by accident; it was created in order to camouflage the parts of ourselves we deemed the most undesirable and to overcompensate for what we believe to be our deepest flaws. What persona are you hiding behind?

I believe that any man’s life will be filled with constant and unexpected encouragement, if he makes up his mind to do his level best each day, and as nearly as possible reaching the high-water mark of pure and useful living.

I thank my old self who chose to be brave, how he believed there would be so much in front of me, and by all that, he was ready to face growth.

I am caught between the meadow and the sky knowing I can walk long distances, but believing there’s something greater than where my feet can take me.

I believe that the biggest problem that humanity faces is an ego sensitivity to finding out whether one is right or wrong and identifying what one’s strengths and weaknesses are.
