Taking Viagra after open heart surgery is like a Civil War re-enactment with live ammo. Not good.

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.

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.

Golf is a game where white men can dress up as black pimps and get away with it.

Ballet: men wearing pants so tight that you can tell what religion they are.
Robin Williams
I thought I was fooling people. But it's the old thing of 'they say vodka doesn't smell'. No, not until you sweat. And you just lie and lie and you think 'I can deal with this'. And then you finally go, 'No you can't'. And then you give up.

We're dealing with fundamentalists... the Amish are fundamentalists, but they don't try and hijack a carriage at needlepoint. And, if you're ever in Amish country and you see a man with his hand buried in a horse's ass, that's a mechanic. Remember that.

Incoming is not the thing you want to hear at Christmas.
Robin Williams
I stand upon my desk to remind myself that we must constantly look at things in a different way.
Robin Williams
We Americans, we're a simple people . . . but piss us off, and we'll bomb your cities.
