This isn't really a trivia game, but I thought maybe to pass the time we could try to think of some appropriate quotes from Clint's movies for the situation we find ourselves in.

Just think of a topic and a quote. I'll start:

Social distancing: "Get off my lawn!"—Walt Kowalski in Gran Torino

Anyone else have one?

This is a tough game -- way too easy to fall into morbid territory.

How about:  "You just need to get as far away from me as you can." - Gus in Trouble with the Curve

Yes, that's the kind of thing I'm thinking of. No need to venture into A Fistful of Dollars territory.

How about:

To kids out partying on the beaches: "You've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky?"

I think the most appropriate Eastwood quote for this situation is:

“It’s a clusterf@#k!”

Another "social distancing" one: "A couple of steps back ..."
