More quotes by Richard Linklater
Monogamy, monotony. There's only a couple of letters...
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
I want to make a film about a factory worker.
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
There are so many great artists, I think, who kind of suffer from being icons, legends, acknowledged masters.
Richard Linklater
Something about Texas I'm not proud of is that our state murdered 37 people last year alone.
Richard Linklater
If we're all going to die, shouldn't we be enjoying ourselves now?
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
Well, you have to keep your faith in the fact that there are a lot of intelligent people who are actively looking for something interesting, people who have been disappointed so many times.
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 did The Newton Boys and during the whole process of making the film, I may have spent a week in Los Angeles.
Richard Linklater
It's disappointing to see films become pure entertainment, so that it's not an art form.
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
Being alone is better than sitting next to a lover and feeling lonely.
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've always liked the minds of criminals, they seem similar to artists.
Richard Linklater
The truth will only be told over a career.
Richard Linklater
I think maybe making films is something innate you can't really teach to begin with.
Richard Linklater
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
We all give ourselves a lot of leeway, but we want consistency from other people.
Richard Linklater
