Words matter. These are the best Robin Quotes from famous people such as Jan Vertonghen, Shaun Evans, Alan Thicke, Brook Lopez, Carrie Vaughn, and they’re great for sharing with your friends.
Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie are two of the best strikers in the league and the reason I came to the Premier League was to play against people like them.
My brother and I loved ‘ThunderCats’ and Robin Williams coming out of an egg in ‘Mork & Mindy.’ At the time, I thought it was funny, but looking back, it was a crazy concept!
My advice to Robin is listen to your heart, do what you feel. Follow your heart in love and marriage as you would in careers, and you’ll be fine. Robin has a great heart. He’s a fabulous father.
My older brothers always collected comics and read them. When we were little, Robin and I would sneak into their room and take them and read them.
Robin McKinley’s ‘The Blue Sword’ was a defining book of my teen years, and I’d love to have more books like that in the world.
I want to be like Robin Williams, really. It’s all the different characters he does, all the different voices.
Basically hated everything made in the ’80s, music television – it was really about the ’90s for me. ‘Encino Man’ was a big hit. ‘Robin Hood: Men in Tights.’
I met Robin Williams a few times, and he was a beautiful guy.
Joel Schumacher fired me from ‘Batman & Robin.’ I don’t think anybody knows that. I was having trouble with these contact lenses that were supposed to make your eyes glow under blacklight.
Robin Lord Taylor is a fantastic actor.
My Mom and Dad did it pretty good, so I know it can work. The foremost thing I would say about working with Robin and Sean is that they were devoted to this project and devoted to their characters. You can’t ask for any more from talented actors like that.
I don’t feel like I need to air out dirty laundry or any drama. But Robin Williams was one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met, celebrity or not. The most humble, nicest guy. I will also say he had a lot of issues.
My agent asked if I fancied Robin Hood and I thought: ‘Yeah, why not?’ I hadn’t watched it, to be honest, but I’d seen bits and knew it was really popular Saturday family viewing with heaps of action. I thought it would be great fun. I was up for a good old play-fighting and the scripts were terrifically exciting.
‘Red Robin’ was just another audition, like a lot of other auditions. I just lucked out, and I got it. It’s a great group of people I get to work with. Roger Craig Smith and Will Friedle and a bunch of guys. It’s fun!
You have to understand, when you’re 15 and you’re doing this Steven Spielberg movie with megastars – Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Julia Roberts – you know you want to be cool. I don’t know how cool I’m going to look with my belly button out!
I grew up watching stuff with Jim Carey, Robin Williams and Sandra Bullock in them. I’ve always been attracted to the actors who are a little more off beat.
In my family, Robin loves planning the trips. He does the itineraries and everything, always sends them out in a mass text.
I’m quite proud of my piano playing. Robin’s never played a note on the piano at our recording sessions. I just wish I could be appreciated musically now.
I grew up in Bellport, Long Island where I attended Gateway Acting School and met Robin Allan. She was the school’s director who took me under her wing and was the one who told me that I could do this for real.
I’ve always wanted to be Batman, but I don’t naturally tend towards Batman. I tend towards Robin, but I did get to play Superman.
I suppose being his twin made me understand Robin that much more easily.
John Kerry had a very vivid imagination as a young person. I mean, he actually did go and take his bicycle from Norway to go camp in Sherwood Forest to be around the ghost of Robin Hood.
I like having pairs of characters to play off each other. I love drawing Batman, but he’s more fun with Robin. Batman charges ahead, Robin jumps off the walls. It’s fun showing that contrast.
I always wanted to be Robin Hood or John the Baptist when I was growing up.
I think the four men of the Beatles are an apt comparison for one Robin Lopez.
Robin is one of the most native and democratic of our birds; he is one of the family, and seems much nearer to us than those rare, exotic visitants, as the orchard starling or rose-breasted grossbeak, with their distant, high-bred ways.
Everything you want Robin Williams to be, he delivered in spades.
When we write, we complement each other. We wrote six songs, Barry and I, while Robin was ill during the American tour, and they were terrible until Robin came back, and then everything worked out.
As a sociolinguist, I want to know how cultural differences affect the ways people talk and listen. My research method, inspired by the work of Robin Lakoff and John Gumperz of the University of California at Berkeley, is sociolinguistic microanalysis. I tape-record and transcribe naturally occurring conversations.
My mother, Robin Bell, is the master of balancing the finite line between classic and creative when it comes to fashion. Mom has no qualms about unleashing the pinking shears on a vintage Givenchy dress if it means she’ll wear it more once it’s sleeveless.
I’ve always had a propensity for getting the cursive down pretty well. What it evolved into was my pseudo-waitressing job when I was auditioning. I didn’t wait tables. I did calligraphy for the invitations for, like, Robin Thicke and Paula Patton’s wedding.
I want to move to one of Europe’s best clubs if I leave Rotterdam, just like Robin van Persie and Kuyt did before.
In the past, I travelled with ‘The Hero and the Crown’ by Robin McKinley: I suffer from a fear of flying, and I felt a bit safer knowing I carried the book and characters with me.
Robin hasn’t got a big nose – but I can soon arrange that.
I live that lifestyle. I want to be the Robin Leach for the new generation, telling them what the hottest places are and where to go.
For Halloween, I’ve gone trick-or-treating as Mary Poppins, Peter Pan, and Robin Hood.
In P7, I played Robin in a musical version of ‘Robin Hood’ and afterwards DO McLean was standing with mum and dad and he told them that I should go into drama. It is still extraordinary to me that a man in that period would think that that was an option for me.
I can’t look at John Prescott without thinking of Les Dawson, and Robin Cook is a caricature of himself.
Robin is the exaggerated version of me. He’s more of a cartoon character.
One of my earliest inspirations was the ‘Allan-a-Dale’ character played by Elton Hayes in the 1954 movie ‘The Story Of Robin Hood And His Merrie Men.’ He was a wandering minstrel with his guitar.
I admire that Robin isn’t scared to show up every day, since he gets embarrassed every day.
The prospects for a coherent, hilarious and consistent American comedy seem to lessen every year, as the poor waterlogged, gassy corpse called ‘Evan Almighty’ proved when it floated ashore recently. So there’s a temptation to think too highly of Robin Williams’s uneven but occasionally funny ‘License to Wed.’
When you snatch little pieces of other people’s lives and try to palm them off as your own, that’s more disgusting than anything. Robin Williams is a huge thief. Denis Leary is a huge thief. His whole stand-up career is based on Bill Hicks, a brilliant guy who died years ago.
Woody Allen stayed so good because he never left New York. Howard Stern stayed so good because he never left New York – Mel Brooks when he just got out of New York was doing ‘Blazing Saddles;’ when he left New York he started doing stuff like ‘Robin Hood Men In Tights’ – he was in L.A. too long. He lost the edge.
In the beginning, Barry and I couldn’t decide if we were going got go forward with the name of the Bee Gees or just as Barry and Robin. Now we’ve decided to continue as the Bee Gees because we feel we can, and Maurice would have wanted it.
That character called ‘Robin Wright’ in the movie called ‘The Congress’ has nothing to do with me… I’ve never felt that way about life choices, career, etc.
Robin Williams understands sonic performances. He understands what it’s like to change your voice up.
Most Robin Hood stories are not very exciting. There are not a lot of surprises.
I don’t love comedy but I can watch someone who’s kind of interesting forever. I think a waitress who’s having a bad day is a lot more fun than Robin Williams doing forty minutes of material.
When you watch Robin Williams, you can see a lot of Jonathan Winters. Robin is the first one to admit that; he worshiped Jonathan Winters.
I think you have everyone kind of pulling on the same end of the rope. It’s not like you’re Robin Williams and everyone else is a deaf mute. It’s like – there’s plenty of help.
I remember seeing ‘Aladdin’ when I was five or six and loving it. I looked at the big screen and said to my mum, ‘Whatever this Genie guy does, I want to do.’ Mum said I couldn’t be a genie, but that Robin Williams, who did the voice-over in the film, was an actor. So I said, ‘OK, then, I want to be an actor.’
The Christopher Robin who appears in so many of the poems is not always me. This was where my name, so totally useless to me personally, came into its own: it was a wonderful name for writing poetry round.
