More quotes by Robin Williams
The entire world will be in nuclear war, and only the Swiss will be going, 'what's that noise?'
Robin Williams
A lot of celebrities golf because they want to be away. For them it's a chance to get away and be peaceful. For me it's peaceful to ride [cycling].
Robin Williams
Stand-up is the place where you can do things that you could never do in public.
Robin Williams
Compassionate conservative. I don't know what that is, it sounds like a Volvo with a gun rack.
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
Mickey Mouse to a three-year-old is a six-foot-tall RAT!
Robin Williams

The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying, 'Give me your poor, your tired, your huddled masses.' She's got a baseball bat and yelling, 'You want a piece of me?'
Robin Williams
Comedy pays the bills if I can't find a film.

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
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
People would say I never censor. As Billy Crystal says, 'I don't have that button.'
Robin Williams
What some folks call impossible is just stuff they haven't seen before.
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 prefer to be handcuffed at home. The idea of voice work to me is great fun, especially when it's a chance to do two different voices.
Robin Williams
But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.
Robin Williams
After my training wheels, my first real bike was a Schwinn, and my first time out, I rode down a hill, didn’t know how to stop, and ran right into a tree. So, that was a nice experience ... like realizing, oh, there are brakes!
Robin Williams
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.
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
When the Williams sisters play tennis, it gets pretty hot. When they start grunting, I'm in.
