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.

You know what music is - a harmonic connection between all living beings.
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
Montovani? They play Montovani to insomniacs that don't respond to strong drugs
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.

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
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
That's the formaldehyde. That's why Granny's so well-preserved.
Robin Williams
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.
Robin Williams
There's no question this is where I want to live. Never has been.
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
Incoming is not the thing you want to hear at Christmas.
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
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
I'm looking for Miss Right, or at least Miss Right Now
Robin Williams
I'm sorry, if you were right, I'd agree with you.
Robin Williams
Gentlemen, haven't we learned anything from the music of John Lennon? All we need is love.
Robin Williams
Okra is the closest thing to nylon I've ever eaten. It's like they bred cotton with a green bean. Okra, tastes like snot. The more you cook it, the more it turns into string.
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
For a while you get mad, then you get over it.
Robin Williams
If we're going to fight a disease, let's fight one of the most terrible diseases of all, indifference.
