On stage you're free. You can say and do things that if you said and did any place else, you'd be arrested.
Robin Williams
She is not perfect. You are not perfect. The question is whether or not you are perfect for each other
Robin Williams
We have a president for whom English is a second language. He's like 'We have to get rid of dictators,' but he's pretty much one himself.
Robin Williams
We used to be hunter-gatherers, now we're shopper-borrowers.

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.

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.

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
Go pump some neurons. Expand your craniums
Robin Williams
Even evangelicals realize that Pinocchio's father was a carpenter too. That's the old joke.
Robin Williams
If we were interested in making money, we wouldn't have become teachers.
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
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.

Lance Armstrong pushes the envelope in terms of the human experience. You can have a personal best, you can push your own envelope. For Lance, the person pushing him is him. The only person he's competing with, I think, is himself. To push that limit to the next step. There's a lot to learn from him. Lots.
