Robin Williams

Robin Williams
I used to think the worst thing in life was to end up all alone. It's not. The worst thing in life is to end up with people who make you feel all alone.
Robin Williams
You know what music is - a harmonic connection between all living beings.
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
If we're going to fight a disease, let's fight one of the most terrible diseases of all, indifference.
Robin Williams
I wonder what chairs think about all day: Oh, here comes another asshole.
Robin Williams
Come on now! You kick out the gooks, the next thing you know, you have to kick out the chinks, the spicks, the spooks, the kikes and all that's going to be left is a couple of brain-dead rednecks.
