More quotes by Richard Linklater
I can't help but think that at the end of your life, when you look back, there'll be a tone. And that tone will come from the essence of how you live your day to day what you did in that between time because that is really your life.
Richard Linklater
I think I got really lucky with Slacker. That was a film that probably shouldn't have been seen.
Richard Linklater
I've always been most interested in the politics of everyday life: your relation to whatever you're doing, or what your ambitions are, where you live, where you find yourself in the social hierarchy.
Richard Linklater
I'm lucky that I get to jump around, do a big-budget comedy and then a smaller film. I don't even make a big distinction between them. No one believes this, but it's the same. I'm the same person, trying to make it work. I just love being on a movie set. I like making movies.
Richard Linklater
People think drama drives story, but I think the comedy is really the heart and soul.
Richard Linklater
Your friends are really an extension of your vision of the world. It's kind of a physical manifestation of how you feel. Like your soul.

Richard Linklater
I've always liked the minds of criminals, they seem similar to artists.
Richard Linklater
I didn't have any set idea of what kind of filmmaker I wanted to be. I knew I wanted to tell stories that meant something to me, but I never said I was going to be the weird, avant-garde guy.
Richard Linklater
It's kinda like D.H. Lawrence had this idea of two people meeting on a road, and instead of just passing and glancing away, they decide to accept what he calls the confrontation between their souls. It's like freeing the brave, reckless gods within us all.
Richard Linklater
I think maybe making films is something innate you can't really teach to begin with.
Richard Linklater
My sisters would swear that I was the spoiled kid who got everything he wanted, and I would go No way! I worked my ass off and you guys got everything. We're all kind of in our own narratives.
Richard Linklater
The truth will only be told over a career.
Richard Linklater
We all give ourselves a lot of leeway, but we want consistency from other people.
Richard Linklater
Being alone is better than sitting next to a lover and feeling lonely.
Richard Linklater
Yeah, a memory's never finished, if you really think about it.
