More quotes by Robin Williams
You're only given a little spark of madness. You mustn't lose it.
Robin Williams
Here's the best birth control in the whole world, if you really, if you have no pills, if you have no diaphragm, if you have no other form of contraception. Use it for ladies, if he comes at you with that little thing in his hand, just laugh at it. They can't deal with it, OK, it'll be gone.
Robin Williams
Dreams don't deal in time. Time doesn't count.
Robin Williams
I love running cross-country...You come up a hill and see two deer going, 'What the hell is he doing?' On a track I feel like a hamster.
Robin Williams
You have this idea that you'd better keep working otherwise people will forget. And that was dangerous. And then you realize, no, actually if you take a break people might be more interested in you.
Robin Williams
I've never had a hankering to direct. I can perform, but I can't write on that level. I tend to go off on tangents. Directing also requires a kind of specificity and I don't have it.
Robin Williams
Seize the day. Because, believe it or not, each and every one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold, and die.
Robin Williams
You're still young. Being a true loser takes years of inaptitude

For me, comedy starts as a spew, a kind of explosion, and then you sculpt it from there, if at all. It comes out of a deeper, darker side. Maybe it comes from anger, because I'm outraged by cruel absurdities, the hypocrisy that exists everywhere, even within yourself, where it's hardest to see.
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
You could talk about same-sex marriage, but people who have been married (say) 'It's the same sex all the time.'
Robin Williams
I love to ride my bike, which is great aerobics, but also just a great time for me to think, so it's like this terrific double bill.
Robin Williams
I'm history! No, I'm mythology! Nah, I don't care what I am, I'm free!
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
Anything that is not funny at a certain point will be funny.
Robin Williams
I have no desire to go anywhere near drugs. People say, Aren't you tempted? No, because of the ridiculousness of it.
Robin Williams
Divorce is expensive. I used to joke they were going to call it 'all the money,' but they changed it to 'alimony.' It's ripping your heart out through your wallet.
Robin Williams
Compassionate conservative, that's like having a gun rack on a Volvo.
Robin Williams
People say that I'm a tree hugger, but I do a lot more than hug trees. I like having my drinking water without faecal matter, that's really nice. Or acceptable levels of strychnine. I'm an air breather, I've gotten used to that over the years.
Robin Williams
In America, they really do mythologize people when they die.
