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.

More quotes by Robin Williams
In America, they really do mythologize people when they die.
Robin Williams
She is not perfect. You are not perfect. The question is whether or not you are perfect for each other
Robin Williams
The little idiosyncrasies that only I know about: that's what made her my wife. Oh she had the goods on me too, she knew all my little peccadilloes. People call these things imperfections, but they're not. Ah, that's the good 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
Compassionate conservative, that's like having a gun rack on a Volvo.
Robin Williams
My childhood was really nice. My parents never forced me to do anything it was always, If you want to do that, fine. When I told my father I was going to be an actor, he said, Fine, but study welding just in case.

With mountain biking, it's always that constant thing, negotiating singletrack, which I like, but for a road ride that rhythm is really Buddhist. When you get a good pedal stoke, it's that thing of everything works.
Robin Williams
What is this demilitarized zone? Whatever it is, I like it! Gets you on your toes better than a strong cup of cappuccino.
Robin Williams
My preference is live performance. Because you get the feedback. There's an energy. It's live theater. That's why I think actors like that. You know, musicians need it, comedians definitely need it. It doesn't matter what size and what club, whether it's 30 people in the club or 2,000 in a hall or a theater. It's live, it's symbiotic, you need it.
Robin Williams
You’ve got to be crazy! It’s too late to be sane, too late. You’ve got to go full tilt bozo... ‘Cause you’re only given a little spark of madness... and if you lose that, you’re nothing
Robin Williams
A woman would never make a nuclear bomb. They would never make a weapon that kills, no, no. They'd make a weapon that makes you feel bad for a while.
Robin Williams
You treat a disease, you win, you lose. You treat a person, I guarantee you, you'll win, no matter what the outcome.
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
When the Williams sisters play tennis, it gets pretty hot. When they start grunting, I'm in.
Robin Williams
You'd think all of these atypical somethings would add up to a typical something
Robin Williams
There's a time for daring and there's a time for caution, and a wise man understands which is called for.
Robin Williams
It's that idea that you can have one drink - and no you can't. Within a week I was drinking heavily. It was so quick that even I was like, 'Wow.'
Robin Williams
Being a famous print journalist is like being the best-dressed woman on radio.
Robin Williams
If you're going to do a movie about the Village, it's pretty nice to shoot in the village and not be in Toronto.
Robin Williams
Humor is a great defense, and an offense too. Usually the recipient isn't too happy about it, but the people around are laughing.
