Dreams don't deal in time. Time doesn't count.

The things we fear the most have already happened to us.
Robin Williams
I got to ninth grade and there was wrestling, and I went, 'Wait a minute, this is fun.' Basically, it was a chance for a small kid like me to get a chance to wail on another small kid. I went, 'I love this.' The discipline of it was great. Plus, I really started to be good at it.
Robin Williams
There's no shame in failing. The only shame is not giving things your best shot.
Robin Williams
The entire world will be in nuclear war, and only the Swiss will be going, 'what's that noise?'
Robin Williams
What is this demilitarized zone? Whatever it is, I like it! Gets you on your toes better than a strong cup of cappuccino.
Robin Williams
Anything that is not funny at a certain point will be funny.
Robin Williams
Everyone has these two visions when they hold their child for the first time. The first is your child as an adult saying I want to thank the Nobel Committee for this award. The other is You want fries with that?.
Robin Williams
In America, they really do mythologize people when they die.
