As an actor and as a person you come together with being in familiar territory although that has not been my whole life. That's been a part of it. I think a lot of people associate me with the west because of Sundance.

God, I just love baseball.

I never had to worry about divestment because I never invested.

Any time I saw people treated unfairly because of race, creed, whatever - it struck a nerve.
Robert Redford
Image
I think the environment should be put in the category of our national security. Defense of our resources is just as important as defense abroad. Otherwise what is there to defend?

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.

I don't know what your childhood was like, but we didn't have much money. We'd go to a movie on a Saturday night, then on Wednesday night my parents would walk us over to the library. It was such a big deal, to go in and get my own book.

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.

I'm not a facelift person. I am what I am.
Robert Redford

I am passionate. I am political about my country, about what it is, how strong it is, how strong it remains.

Success is a tricky mistress. It's nice to have but it's a tricky thing to embrace.

Storytellers broaden our minds: engage, provoke, inspire, and ultimately, connect us.

I've been able to carve out spaces for myself. At Sundance, I'm in the mountains - my property is private. I get on a horse and ride for three, four hours. Sometimes five. I get lost. But when I'm in, I'm in.

You should prepare when you go to a public event to be public. That's when I will sign autographs. But not when you're going about your normal business.

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.
