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.

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
Usually I like to improvise. Sometimes, depending on the nature of the piece, I like to improvise because I think it brings a certain freshness and a reality to it, as long as it doesn't go too far out of the box.
Robert Redford
We program the festival, after 20 years, exactly the way we did on the first day.
Robert Redford
I had just arrived in New York from California. I was nineteen years old and excited beyond belief. I was an art student and an acting student and behaved as most young actors did - meaning that there was no such thing as a good actor, 'cause you yourself hadn't shown up yet.
Robert Redford
I never had to worry about divestment because I never invested.
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
Sundance was started as a mechanism for the discovery of new voices and new talent.
Robert Redford
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.
Robert Redford
It seems everyone in Hollywood is getting pinched, lifted and pulled. I'm looking weird because I'm not.
Robert Redford
I can't go into a bar anywhere without someone starting to play 'the Entertainer'.
Robert Redford
Whenever there's chaos, there's ambiguity, and where there's ambiguity, there's fear. And fear gets manipulated.
Robert Redford
There's a lot of money to be made by strip-mining and drilling the dirtiest oil on the planet. But why should the rest of us pay the price?
Robert Redford
You’re never going to be the same person you are right now.
Robert Redford
Between 18 and 19 years old [in the 1950s] I came to Paris. I studied art. And that experience really did change my life. I was living hand to mouth. I walked everywhere. I thought, this city is incredible but you really have to experience it by walking it.
Robert Redford
I have a lot of land. I bought it because I had a very strong feeling. I was in my early twenties, and I had grown up in Los Angeles and had seen that city slide off into the sea from the city I knew as a little kid. It lost its identity - suddenly there was cement everywhere and the green was gone and the air was bad - and I wanted out.
Robert Redford
Water is the sleeping giant issue of the 21st century and we all need to wake up about it.
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
I was seen in earlier years by family members and people of authority as somebody wasting his time. I had trouble with the restrictions of conformity. It made me edgy.
Robert Redford
I'm not good at compromise.
Robert Redford
When I was a kid, nobody told me I was good-looking. I wish they had. I would've had a better time.
Robert Redford
