More quotes by Robin Williams
I stopped drinking when I had children because I wanted to be awake and aware. I did not want to be going, you know, daddy loves you and then drop my head on the table. I do not want to miss anything that they do or say. It is important to me.
Robin Williams
I just want to do movies, and I want to sell them. I don't want to link up with some product.
Robin Williams
When you really do find a new idea or you're in and it's all working, that's the gift. It's like a musician when they hit a riff, that's when you're like all right, it's mellow. You back off and just ride it.
Robin Williams
I basically started performing for my mother, going, 'Love me!' What drives you to perform is the need for that primal connection. When I was little, my mother was funny with me, and I started to be charming and funny for her, and I learned that by being entertaining, you make a connection with another person.
Robin Williams
With a bike you go from zero to a hundred in terms of mobility.
Robin Williams
You know what music is? God's little reminder that there's something else besides us in this universe harmonic connection between all living beings, every where, even the stars.
Robin Williams
As intellectual as we think we are, you still trip, we still have human foibles, sexuality, all the different things to still make you aware of your humanity.
Robin Williams
What's my credibility? Why are they looking to me for advice? Isn't there someone more qualified?
Robin Williams
My preference is live performance. Because you get the feedback. There's an energy. It's live theater. That's why I think actors like that. You know, musicians need it, comedians definitely need it. It doesn't matter what size and what club, whether it's 30 people in the club or 2,000 in a hall or a theater. It's live, it's symbiotic, you need it.
Robin Williams
There's no shame in failing. The only shame is not giving things your best shot.
Robin Williams
Is it rude to Twitter during sex? To go omg, omg, wtf, zzz? Is that rude?
Robin Williams
How much more can you give? Other than, literally, open-heart surgery onstage? Not much. But the only cure you have right now is the honesty of going, this is who you are. I know who I am.
Robin Williams
There's a world out there. Open a window, and it's there.
Robin Williams
Sometimes with a comedy it's just having the instinct of how real you play it and what level you want it.
Robin Williams
My comedy is like emotional hang-gliding.
Robin Williams
Come on now! You kick out the gooks, the next thing you know, you have to kick out the chinks, the spicks, the spooks, the kikes and all that's going to be left is a couple of brain-dead rednecks.
Robin Williams
Directing requires great discipline, that ability to be in and out at the same time. The great ones I've worked with are like generals. It's a bit like a small war on that level. The great ones have that combination of freedom and control. I'm nowhere near that. There's still so much to do as an actor. I have enough to explore with that.
Robin Williams
In England, if you commit a crime, the police don't have a gun and you don't have a gun. If you commit a crime, the police will say 'Stop, or I'll say stop again.'
Robin Williams
You can start any 'Monty Python' routine and people finish it for you. Everyone knows it like shorthand.
Robin Williams
You know what music is - a harmonic connection between all living beings.
