It's a very smart and heartfelt movie and that's why, I think, we're all drawn to it. We really showed up for this with this collective idea that it was really ambitious, but we felt we all really had something to gain from it.

More quotes by Robert Downey, Jr.
A lot of my peer group think I'm an eccentric bisexual, like I may even have an ammonia-filled tentacle somewhere on my body. That's okay.
Robert Downey, Jr.
People never change because they are under threat or under duress. Never. They change because they see something that makes their life seem valuable enough to start moving toward a life worth living.
Robert Downey, Jr.
Violent ground-acquisition games such as football are in fact a crypto-fascist metaphor for nuclear war.
Robert Downey, Jr.
To me, friendship means loving tolerance.
Robert Downey, Jr.
Do I want to be a hero to my son? No. I would like to be a very real human being. That's hard enough.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I loved it, it's such fun. I like that people are seeing it and then talking about it. Like when I took my son and his friends to see Napoleon Dynamite last year, we spent the next six weeks trying to explain it.

Nobody learns a German aria overnight, except Jared Harris.

It's hard to get out of the barrel. It's slippery around the edges and people are happy to see you fall back in.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I don't drink these days. I am allergic to alcohol and narcotics. I break out in handcuffs.
Robert Downey, Jr.
Whenever I watch someone doing something, even if it doesn't turn out so great, I at least admire their intentions and stuff.
Robert Downey, Jr.
Does any new parent, even if you're not a first-time parent, ever really know what to do?
Robert Downey, Jr.
You know, when you're part of a comedic duo, you can take breaks. It's kind of like having a partner that is good with a kid.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I did Air America for two reasons: to be in a movie with Mel Gibson and to make a bunch of money. And then underneath there was the hope that in doing this formulaic thing I would be launched into a whole new realm of opportunity to do A-list movies. By the time we were done, the only positive thing was meeting Mel Gibson.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I don't like words coming out of a character's mouth that I adore because not only is he a little bit duplicitous but he's kind of practical in the way he thinks, and he thinks in terms of everyone's humanity and how quickly we can go against what we think we meant when we said it or what we believe or blah, blah, blah.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I think a hero is someone who, if abroad or traveling, they go to the GOOP website to see what shops to go to, what restaurants to eat at, what clothes to buy, and they do that not fearlessly but in spite of their fear.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I've always felt like such an outsider in this industry. Because I'm so insane I guess.
Robert Downey, Jr.
The audience can feel the subtleties of the characters.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I'm a soldier who didn't know how nasty the battle was going to be, and now, I've got a purple heart and I'm back.
Robert Downey, Jr.
I need a lot of support... Life is really hard, and I don't see some active benevolent force out there. I see it as basically a really cool survival game. You get on the right side of the tracks, and you now are actually working with what some people would call magic.
Robert Downey, Jr.
And last but not the least
