Classic Movie Lines #66

[SilverStar40]

Another great dialogue from that movie was between him and the Indian. Josey: people I start to like don't ever stick around long. Indian: people you don't like don't seem to stick around long neither!

[tzlawina]

I thought he was going to say "I had to come back... I forgot my jacket"

[DeathShamans]

this scene is so diverse... a white, black, red and the grandma kind of looks asian : )

[REDDRAKON]

my favorite line

[Theburn77]

I know...

[agliettip]

This has to be the coolest western dialogue ever!! "Dyin' ain't much of a livin' boy", so simple and yet so awesome...

[yaahme]

The line of " dyin' aint much of a livin' boy " was also used by Clint in the movie on a Confederate Soldier as he was dying and gave that boy a last smoke when he passed on. What's freaky about this is that the line was cut from ALL main stream re-runs of the movie. It's almost anti-war if you get the drift! So true to life. I once was active duty and this line stuck with me thru the years, it's true!

@yaahme the good the bad and the ugly

[yaahme]

@1962cyn Thanx, you are correct on the movie name there, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly!

The line is conspicuously removed on TV reruns from the war scene dialog between Clint and the soldier. If you get the full version unedited you will see and hear it for the waste that War is as I believe that was the reason for the clip in the movie - classic!

Too much for the establishment on TV with the wars going on as Obummer outdoes Bush...

[SamTarly]

Clint Eastwood takes out Russian President Putin

[TranquilFury1993]

@SamTarly ...I have a new idea for the next Clint Eastwood movie!

[Legionbass19]

I love that quote. It's probably my favorite movie quote of all time. But with Clint, there's too many.

[danderson87]

one of my favorite movies ever. I've probably quoted that line more than any other, at random in inappropriate times. I even named my dog Josey, the best damn dog I ever had. Smart and loyal german shepard, lived to 13

[scatter087]

you a bounty hunter

[execatty]

one of the best movies ever made...

[tuhs64]

badest ass line ever

[1961slam]

Great film indeed. Viewing it new in 1976 at the THEATER full sized screen as well, was maximum impact!

[herbgardner420]

"I always heard there were three types of suns in Kansas , sunshine , sunflowers , and sons-a-bitches"

[davemelnick]

Clint/Josey Wales/Dirty Harry is a real bad ass eh. ;)

[markpringle]

The #1 Eastwood Movie!

[64CSAR]

LMFAO I hella thought he was going to say " I had to come back........I left my wallet" LMFAO shit im fucked up

[bythedog]

Who's had more classic movie lines than Clint Eastwood? Rhetorical question.

I use to see him in Redding, CA when he would fly in on the Warner Brothers GIII and I would fuel up his A-Star for him for the trip to his ranch! Use to rent an old Chevy from one of my buddies to go into town incognito. When he came back, there would be a $50 in the cup holder. Classy guy!

True American Icon... like baseball, hot dogs and apple pie!

[AdamFpatrick]

Dyin a'int much of a livin boy LOL. Classic!!

[giantsb0y21]

Best line ever!!! if i was that bounty hunter..and Josey Wales said to me "Dyin' ain't much of a livin' boy" ...i would've sh*t my pants!! XD

[117rebel]

@giantsb0y21

I would have gone wide eyed, sharply turned to the left, and carried my ass out the door lol!

[CE750]

best line in a western ever

[CaptainsteveVI]

Best movie line ever!!

[wolflover552]

the best about clint eastwoods films is the catchy lines and also the epic stares lol

[Skidonti]

Great scene.

[buizel926]

I use this on my friend all the time.

[pathfinderdaddy]

Dying ain't much of a livin'

[rgarcia77]

This movie had so many good lines, like Tombstone, it's one of the best Western Classics ever made!

[trynnallen]

I wonder if Lucas used this scene as a model for Han in the Cantina scene.

[darkyoda]

It's been suggested more than once. Seems so fitting too.

[TiminPhoenix]

Wonderfully written, directed, and performed. The bountyhunter knows he is going to die yet he has to hold true to his own code of personal honor.

Only Eastwood understands that and respects him as an equal before he is forced to kill him.

Just so richly complex and so well captured...

[Mazdak1]

@TiminPhoenix this is exactly what i noticed.

[AderesDevorah]

@TiminPhoenix

Yes; although the author of this comment has almost certainly moved on he (judging by the username) is spot on - a great moment of camaraderie between two men of dubious ethics. Like Wales, the bounty hunter should not be judged as he may have a story similar to Wales himself (or equally noble for completely different reasons). Eastwood is just awesome. Surely his pèce de résistance is still coming. Peace to all good people here!

[boomstick900]

@TiminPhoenix great comment, would read again

[countdanzigbathory]

This should be # 1.
