More quotes by Robert Redford
I am passionate. I am political about my country, about what it is, how strong it is, how strong it remains.
Robert Redford
The world around us is in a sea change, and I think the glory of art is that it cannot only survive change, it can lead it
Robert Redford
The entertainment person gets a certain credibility, and the politician gets a certain notoriety. I'm against it.
Robert Redford
I have no regrets, because I've done everything I could to the best of my ability.
Robert Redford
Because, you know, you're in Utah. And because of its political conservatism, if you can make it there, you can make it anywhere.
Robert Redford
I enjoyed working with Dustin Hoffman. That was really fun. He decided that to really be effective as Woodward and Bernstein, considering their differences, we should spend some time together. Because Dustin and I were very different.
Robert Redford
Ideas aren't real estate, they grow collectively and that knocks out the egotistical loneliness that generally infects art.
Robert Redford

Golf has become so manicured, so perfect. The greens, the fairways. I don't like golf carts. I like walking. Some clubs won't let you in unless you have a caddy and a cart.
Robert Redford
When I grew up, shame was used as a tool for check and balance. If you stood a chance of hearing someone say, Shame on you, or You should be ashamed of yourself, you thought twice. It doesn't seem to be a factor today.
Robert Redford
I am a cynical optimist. Big opening weekends are like cotton candy. The films you will remember over time are the films that stick in the consciousness of the audience in a good way.
Robert Redford
I didn't think about politics until I came to Europe.
Robert Redford
I can't go into a bar anywhere without someone starting to play 'the Entertainer'.
Robert Redford
Journalism has changed tremendously because of the democratization of information. Anybody can put something up on the Internet. It's harder and harder to find what the truth is.
Robert Redford
It's good to say, 'Look, I can't always be right, but my gut tells me this' - and then you confirm with your gut.
Robert Redford
If you could ever do a project that really has magic in it, and justifiable magic, you should do it.
Robert Redford
The meter is ticking [particularly in the face of climate change], so you've got to get to as much as you can as fast as you can. I grew up with 'This Land Is Our Land,' and public land doesn't belong to that administration or this one. We want our kids to grow up with real natural places, not just photos of them.
Robert Redford
It's all about greed and money and it's the driving force in Hollywood.
Robert Redford
Water is the sleeping giant issue of the 21st century and we all need to wake up about it.
Robert Redford
I think documentary filmmakers need as much protection as possible under journalist's privilege. How else is the public to know what is going on?
