More quotes by Robin Williams
In truth I never really liked any of the heavy drugs, because normally my energy is up when I'm performing, and that's about it. Cocaine is nothing new. It's the pressure, I think. People use it to relieve that, and for me it is about getting numb and forgetting. I have a reverse metabolic reaction to the stuff.
Robin Williams
To be acknowledged for who and what I am, no more, no less. Not for acclaim, not for approval, but, the simple truth of that recognition. This has been the elemental drive of my existence, and it must be achieved, if I am to live or die with dignity.
Robin Williams
It's the same sex all the time.
Robin Williams
To make fun of an administration, to make fun of anything, Mark Twain said, is the last defense of democracy.
Robin Williams
With a bike you go from zero to a hundred in terms of mobility.
Robin Williams
My religious background is that my mother is a Christian Dior Scientist.
Robin Williams
Avoid using the word 'very' because it's lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don't use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason boys - to woo women - and in that endeavor, laziness will not do.
Robin Williams
His golf bag does not contain a full set of irons.
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
Make your life spectacular, I know I did.
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 couldn't imagine living the way I used to live. Now people come up to me from the drug days and go, 'Hi, remember me?' And I'm going, 'No, did I have sex with you? Did I take a dump in your tool box?'
Robin Williams
Things that I see in the future. I see... it could be quite incredible if we can master a few problems, like the air and the water thing might be nice. I see governments dissolving these barriers are all falling down for economic reasons. They're all so interbound.
Robin Williams
When in doubt, go for the dick joke.
Robin Williams
Politics is so personal, vicious and immediate, how are you going to get anything done? Even the local politics where I live have gotten so ugly.
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
You're still young. Being a true loser takes years of inaptitude
Robin Williams
I stand upon my desk to remind myself that we must constantly look at things in a different way.
Robin Williams
You have an internal critic, an internal drive that says, 'OK, you can do more.' Maybe that's what keeps you going.
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.
