I've always loved the "one liners" that Clint Eastwood, always seemed to come up with.
"Well, are you going to do something, or just stand there and bleed?"
I doubt that there will (ever be) an actor that comes up with some of the best quotes for us.
"Frankly, in all of the excitement, I can't remember if I fired six shots, or only five."

"No thanks, I had bugs for lunch." Indiana Jones/Temple of Doom
Best line in the worst IJ movie - IMHO. So good I still remember it after all these years. But not good enough to watch the movie again to see it delivered. (Unlike so many of the other great lines mentioned above - I can't count the number of times I've watched Casablanca.)

Actually, it was the writers who came up with those lines. Clint just read them.

Clint was known for sometimes changing or rewriting his scripts, although I couldn't find anything about specific lines he rewrote.
