More quotes by Richard Linklater
I think maybe making films is something innate you can't really teach to begin with.
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 think I got really lucky with Slacker. That was a film that probably shouldn't have been seen.
Richard Linklater
It's disappointing to see films become pure entertainment, so that it's not an art form.
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
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.

There are a million ideas in a world of stories. Humans are storytelling animals. Everything's a story, everyone's got stories, we're perceiving stories, we're interested in stories. So to me, the big nut to crack is to how to tell a story, what's the right way to tell a particular story.
Richard Linklater
I always think that I’m still this 13-year old boy that doesn’t really know how to be an adult, pretending to live my life, taking notes for when I’ll really have to do it.
Richard Linklater
In a sea of stories, find the right one to tell, and the right way to tell it.
Richard Linklater
I'd be fine if there weren't film festivals, and you just made your films and didn't have to do anything from that point on. That would be really great, wouldn't it? I don't know. I'm in kind of an aloof time, where I'm not taking anything too seriously.
Richard Linklater
Yeah, a memory's never finished, if you really think about it.
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
Something about Texas I'm not proud of is that our state murdered 37 people last year alone.
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
People think drama drives story, but I think the comedy is really the heart and soul.
Richard Linklater
Monogamy, monotony. There's only a couple of letters...
Richard Linklater
There are so many great artists, I think, who kind of suffer from being icons, legends, acknowledged masters.
Richard Linklater
Memory is a wonderful thing if you don't have to deal with the past.
Richard Linklater
The truth will only be told over a career.
