Society mends its wounds. And that's invariably true in all the tragedies, in the comedies as well. And certainly in the histories.

Political correctness is tyranny with manners.

Political correctness is just tyranny with manners. I wish for you the courage to be unpopular. Popularity is history's pocket change. Courage is history's true currency.

Dirty Harry, for example. Clint Eastwood was not a rogue cop. He was a maverick cop, but he was a good guy.

Telling us what to think has evolved into telling us what to say, so telling us what to do can't be far behind.

One way or another, if you're persistent, fortune always smiles on you.

You can have my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

Another plague upon the land, as devastating as the locusts God loosed on the Egyptians, is 'Political Correctness.'

To the divisive forces that would take freedom away, I want to tell you something: You can have my gun. You can pry it from my cold dead hands!

Sometimes, to be silent is to be most eloquent.

Any gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing. Any gun in the hands of a decent person is no threat to anybody — except bad people.

The fear of failure is not just the greatest fear of man, it is the fear of man. All other fears are avatars of the fear of failure.

All that we got here is American made. It's a little bit cheesy, but it's nicely displayed.

To get rid of anger you can change the situation or change how you think about the situation.

The ground that a good man treads is hallowed.

I believe that independent film making is the last frontier of creative expression available. So I'm always willing to lend a helping hand to a young film maker who's just getting into the business.

My job is to tell good stories, convey meanings, invoke emotion as well as I can. I'd rather be doing that than anything else.

Conversation is a beautiful thing. When I was a younger guy, just wandering around talking to people was what kept me connected to the world.

Every word is an adamantine shell which encloses a great explosive force. To discover its meaning you must let it burst inside you like a bomb and in this way liberate the soul which it imprisons.

Savers like spenders, worriers like avoiders and planners marry dreamers.

I have good hope that there is something remaining for the dead.
