A horrible script 99 percent of the time means a horrible movie. But if you start with a good script, odds are you're going to have a good movie.

More quotes by Ricky Schroder
Nashville feels like a big little town to me. It's got lots of culture and lots of interesting things to do and lots of interesting people. At the same time, it feels very small and tight-knit and very close. Everyone feels like they know each other.
Ricky Schroder
I feel cheesy when I see Silver Spoons. Some of it was funny, but some of it was just cheese! My kids love it, but I look at it and cringe.
Ricky Schroder
I worked with creative people who were very demanding of me, and they helped me reach performances that I never could have gotten on my own without being pushed and having trust in them. And so I know the best way to get the best performance of an actor, and that's not to coddle them or to baby them. It's to help them it's to push them.
Ricky Schroder
My sympathies go out to the young performers today because they are under a microscope in a way I wasn't. Now everybody's got a camera phone and can record at will or take pictures of you. It's just a different world. I don't know how I would have fared back then.
Ricky Schroder
I love being on set, because I've basically grown up on a set. And now I love to contribute as a director and help steer the ship, if you will.
Ricky Schroder
I know when an actor is giving it his/her all and when they're just phoning it in.
Ricky Schroder
I don't know why it is, but sometimes I feel like I'm 60. It's like I've been around for a long time. I felt that way even when I was 8.
Ricky Schroder
An actor is like an instrument, tune them, play them the right way.
Ricky Schroder
I became a country music fan in 1990 when I moved to Colorado. It was my first exposure to it because I'm from a city. I've been a fan of country music ever since.
Ricky Schroder
I really enjoy the writing process because I can do it from my house. I can create these characters and take them in the different directions that I want to take them. You have a lot of freedom as a writer.
Ricky Schroder
There's some things that you're passionate about as a director. You just know it has to be a certain way. The challenge is resolving those so everyone is happy and no one feels that they have not been heard.
Ricky Schroder
It's difficult being a child actor. I don't think everything beautiful has to be exploited. Some things can be beautiful and left beautiful.
Ricky Schroder
Trying to understand women is a tall order period.
Ricky Schroder
I demand excellence from the people I work with.
Ricky Schroder
My daughter's wanted to be an actress since she was six years old, but I didn't want her to go through the same experiences as I did as a child actor.

I asked Michael Jackson once. I said to him, 'How were you able to go from the Jackson Five to the biggest star in the world? What was your secret, Michael?' He said, 'Ricky, stay inspired. That's the hardest thing to do. If you can figure out a way to stay inspired, you can make it.'
Ricky Schroder
I play a lot of chess. I probably played 200 games while we were making 'Andromeda.'
Ricky Schroder
There have been times I almost got a persecution complex. I felt like people wouldn't let me grow up. They always saw me as a smiling kid or goofy teenager, no matter how much I'd changed.
Ricky Schroder
I weren't an actor, I'd be a wildlife biologist or forest ranger.
Ricky Schroder
I have a career I am proud of as a child actor. I'm not running away from it or embarassed with anything I did.
