There's a lot of hyperventilation that takes off before the [Sundance Film] Festival, a lot of buzz.

Robert Redford
I'm not that interested in someone that one-dimensional, but I'm interested in playing somebody that's more complicated.
Robert Redford
I'm not interested in a film about golf but I am interested in golf as a metaphor.
Robert Redford
I don't think you can ever return, really.
Robert Redford
Ideas aren't real estate, they grow collectively and that knocks out the egotistical loneliness that generally infects art.
Robert Redford
I believe in mythology. I guess I share Joseph Campbell's notion that a culture or society without mythology would die, and we're close to that.
Robert Redford
Sometimes the failures can be exciting and fun. It's just a step on the road, it's not the end of something.
Robert Redford
Have a strong vision about the story you want to tell and how you want to tell it.

When I was a kid I was not a good student. I went to the University of Colarado, my grades were poor. I was asked to leave after a year. What I really wanted to do was to be an artist.
