More quotes by 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
As we know from our government, the more power you have, the more of a bureaucrat you are, and the more ego you have invested in being right, the greater the odds are that you will never change your opinion.
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 want to make a film about a factory worker.
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
Yeah, a memory's never finished, if you really think about it.
Richard Linklater
It's hard to see a film one time and really get it, and write fully and intelligently about it. That's a review. That's not film criticism.
Richard Linklater
Something about Texas I'm not proud of is that our state murdered 37 people last year alone.
Richard Linklater
The truth will only be told over a career.
Richard Linklater
People think drama drives story, but I think the comedy is really the heart and soul.
Richard Linklater
When you're trying to get laid, everything's great, but once you've been with someone eight years and the future is not finite, you have time to sit and really examine every little thing that irritates you.
Richard Linklater
There are so many great artists, I think, who kind of suffer from being icons, legends, acknowledged masters.
Richard Linklater
We all give ourselves a lot of leeway, but we want consistency from other people.
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
I've always liked the minds of criminals, they seem similar to artists.
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
It's disappointing to see films become pure entertainment, so that it's not an art form.
Richard Linklater
Being alone is better than sitting next to a lover and feeling lonely.
Richard Linklater
If we're all going to die, shouldn't we be enjoying ourselves now?
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.
