More quotes by 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 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.

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
We all give ourselves a lot of leeway, but we want consistency from other people.
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
Something about Texas I'm not proud of is that our state murdered 37 people last year alone.
Richard Linklater
There are so many great artists, I think, who kind of suffer from being icons, legends, acknowledged masters.
Richard Linklater
Monogamy, monotony. There's only a couple of letters...
Richard Linklater
I think maybe making films is something innate you can't really teach to begin with.
Richard Linklater
I think I got really lucky with Slacker. That was a film that probably shouldn't have been seen.
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.
