More quotes by Robert Redford
It's an honor putting art above politics. Politics can be seductive in terms of things reductive to the soul.
Robert Redford
Any time I saw people treated unfairly because of race, creed, whatever - it struck a nerve.
Robert Redford
If you want to slice into America, it's pretty red, white, and blue in terms of how it goes about things, but there's a gray area there, and I've always been interested in where things are complicated.
Robert Redford
I don't remember spending any time with anybody on set. I don't spend a lot of time with people.
Robert Redford
I can't watch completed films - my wife makes fun of me.

For me, personally, skiing holds everything. I used to race cars, but skiing is a step beyond that. It removes the machinery and puts you one step closer to the elements. And it's a complete physical expression of freedom.

Robert Redford
Storytellers broaden our minds: engage, provoke, inspire, and ultimately, connect us.
Robert Redford
I would see my hometown, Los Angeles, change. Green space and orange groves gave way to cement, freeways flooded with traffic, and air pollution, all in the name of progress. I felt like I was losing my home. It had a profound effect on me, and I realized just how important nature was to my spirit, my soul, my point of view.
Robert Redford
Ambiguity is something that I really respond to. I like the complexity of it.
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
I was blessed to look well and retain a youthful look but that was just genes. I was disappointed when critics started pointing out my wrinkles. I thought, you mean this is what it's gonna be about now? I'm not going to be permitted to be human?
Robert Redford
I can't go into a bar anywhere without someone starting to play 'the Entertainer'.
Robert Redford
I guess the optimistic thing is that those people in Congress who are climate deniers, I think their time has run out.
Robert Redford
It's a creative enterprise, just like art, just like painting, music. Creating something can be done in different categories, so to do it in film is just another expression, which is great. Because it translates so well because so many people see the work, if you're lucky.
Robert Redford
You’re never going to be the same person you are right now.
