More quotes by Robin Williams
I basically started performing for my mother, going, 'Love me!' What drives you to perform is the need for that primal connection. When I was little, my mother was funny with me, and I started to be charming and funny for her, and I learned that by being entertaining, you make a connection with another person.

Robin Williams
Politically, I don't care what party you're from, offer a point of view and let's see what happens and really debate the issues rather than use personal attacks. Really talk about it, talk about immigration, talk about education, talk about pollution.
Robin Williams
Make your life spectacular, I know I did.
Robin Williams
Comedy pays the bills if I can't find a film.
Robin Williams
It's great that we've got a compassionate conservative, but to me, that sounds like a Volvo with a gun rack.
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
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 might say he was one taco short of a combination platter.
Robin Williams
To be free. Such a thing would be greater than all the magic and all the treasures in all the world.
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.
