More quotes by Robert Redford
Sport is a wonderful metaphor for life. Of all the sports that I played - skiing, baseball, fishing - there is no greater example than golf, because you're playing against yourself and nature.
Robert Redford
He has the attention span of a lightning bolt.
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
Generally speaking, I went through that. I came to a place where I realised what true value was. It wasn't money. Money is a means to achieving an end, but it's not the end.
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
Lastly get emotionally connected to your story so you can deliver it, you know, if you can't deliver the emotions to your script there's no point to your story. Story is the key.
Robert Redford
I think Hollywood... well, there is no Hollywood anymore so let's just call it the mainstream since the business is no longer Hollywood producing its own films and then distributing, they just distribute.
Robert Redford
Sundance was started as a mechanism for the discovery of new voices and new talent.
Robert Redford
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
In fact, I think more broadly about what an audience requires, but I want an audience to be fascinated by the process of finding an answer, or finding out there isn't one.
Robert Redford
I think there was something that made us not pay attention to climate change. Something that was up there. There was a saying when we were trying to pay attention to the environment that people used this phrase NIMBY - not in my back yard. People were saying, ‘I don’t care, it is not in my back yard.’ But now it’s in everyone’s back yard.
Robert Redford
I'm not a facelift person. I am what I am.
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?
Robert Redford
I'm always moving forward and trying new things.
Robert Redford
People are becoming more and more aware of how the dominance of development and business is altering their lives and, in particular, their own heritage.
Robert Redford
It's an honor putting art above politics. Politics can be seductive in terms of things reductive to the soul.
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 guess there are different ways to handle success. You can multiply it financially and use it to multiply your net worth. That's always been very appealing to me.
Robert Redford
When did Noah build the boat? - Before the rain.
Robert Redford
Politics right now is in a very dark place, and I think the only place for me is to do what I do - make films, create art, watch it as it evolves. Right now it's like Humpty Dumpty sitting on a wall, and a great fall is happening. The behavior seems to be really dumb.
