Robin Quotations

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.'

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.

Bonnie and Clyde were almost like a modern-day Robin Hood, stealing 'the government's money.' I think that's a bit of why they were glorified.

I had the opportunity to go cast for a Hollywood film that was filming in Thailand called 'Mortal Kombat 2.' Out of 100 people, I was cast to be the stunt double for Robin Shou.

I rooted for the Milwaukee Brewers and its stars, Robin Yount and Paul Molitor. I went to a lot of games, including the World Series in 1982. The Brewers may have been a bad team for most of my life, but to have your team at its peak when you are thirteen years old is an experience I wish for every fan.

'Aladdin' was probably my favorite Disney animation when I was a kid. The animation was great and Robin Williams was unbelievable as the Genie. 'Aladdin' was an amazing adventure and the lead character was a hero for guys, which I loved. It wasn't a princess or a girl beating the odds; it was a street rat. That seemed really cool to me.

Conservatives are time-biders. And they understand, as Corey Robin explains in his indispensable book 'The Reactionary Mind,' that the direction of human history is not on their side - that is why they are reactionaries - because, other things equal, civilization does tend towards more inclusion, more emancipation, more liberalism.

'Bonnie and Clyde,' while one of the best movies ever made, was far more interested in portraying Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker as romantic anti-establishment Robin Hoods than what they really were: white-trash spree killers.

I, and others like me - trap stars - we always considered ourselves Robin Hoods: we go out and get the money. Just think, if you was in the village and you a hunter, you take pride in going out to hunt the prey and bring it back for the village to eat. In our situation, we took pride in getting money so that the hood could eat.

In theatres, you're kind of disconnected. Also, it's way too big for the likes of me. Unless you're Robin Williams or someone that can fill a stage with movement and energy, it just looks like a small man on a big stage.

I feel very at home in woodlands and could easily live there. I should have been one of Robin Hood's men.

Robin hasn't got a big nose - but I can soon arrange that.

I can't look at John Prescott without thinking of Les Dawson, and Robin Cook is a caricature of himself.

I met Robin Williams a few times, and he was a beautiful guy.

Everyone forgets comedians are actors. There's no question about it. A Robin Williams cannot say the same line every night for 40 weeks and make it sound fresh unless he's doing an acting job.

Talent grips us. We are overtaken by the beauty of Michelangelo's sculpture, riveted by Mariah Carey's angelic voice, doubled over in laughter by the comedy of Robin Williams, and captivated by the on screen performances of Denzel Washington.

Few Westerners know Iran as well as Robin Wright: her first trip there as a journalist was in 1973, and she has covered every important milestone since, from the Islamic revolution and the hostage crisis to the more recent staring contest with the West over Tehran's nuclear program.

We are all getting on fine and our third place in the European Championships showed we can play well together. We topped the round robin section in that tournament and were a bit disappointed to end up with the bronze, but that was a marker and I'd like to think there's more improvement to come.

Missouri's highest courts and a jury of Marlin Gray's peers determined unequivocally that he should be held accountable for Julie and Robin Kerry's deaths, ... I support the sentence issued and affirmed by both Missouri and U.S. Courts and believe justice has been served. My thoughts and prayers are with family and friends who mourn the loss of Julie and Robin.

My editor, Robin Robertson, is one of this country's finest poets, so I listen to him when he offers advice.

One of the reasons why we brought her in was we felt like she complimented Robin very well and her ability to run the floor and transition was a huge asset.

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.

I grew up as a huge comic fan and a huge Batman & Robin fan. I watched all the TV shows, went to all the movies - I even had the lunch box; man, I was in!

I looked like Robin Hood going through the 18, ... an adventure in itself.

Having had the opportunity to work with Robin over many years, I am confident that she possesses the dedication and experience to successfully carry out the mission of the Vail Jazz Foundation.

Having good wheels, means you can get around the court fast. Alyssa and Katie and Robin - they all are running a lot more than they were at the beginning of the season.

Whatever people think Robin Hood is, Robin Hood is.

We're operating as usual. We are very determined. Robin is very organized and is doing the job well.

He represented kind of the lowest residue of cultural knowledge. The implication is that every English speaker by the 1380s would have known Robin Hood. ... That's a pretty extraordinary idea.

He represented kind of the lowest residue of cultural knowledge, ... The implication is that every English speaker by the 1380s would have known Robin Hood. ... That's a pretty extraordinary idea.

Unless we see something really good that I haven't heard about yet, I would find it extremely unlikely that we could vote for a budget that has a reverse Robin Hood proposal like the income tax hike.

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 thought about him in Seize the Day and his cameo in Dead Again , so it wasn't a leap to see him as a guy who's damaged goods. I think he connected to that guy. I think when someone has the talent Robin has, it makes you a bit of an outsider.

Lacy was on top, but the scoring was so against Robin Reid.

Jeff satisfied his mandatory against top-rated contender Robin Reid in August so he wouldn't be stripped and the fight would be a true world title unification fight, ... Reid was no warm-up fight.

Jeff is not looking past Robin Reid. Reid is the stiffest test Jeff Lacy will have faced in his 19-0 career.

Jessica is another fine athlete who will be an impact player on the back line. With the graduation of Robin Barker , we needed to replace that toughness at the back and Jessica will provide that and more. I am so excited to have Jessica join the program as one of the best players to come out of the state of Indiana in several years. Her appetite for the game, her fitness and speed make her a great addition to the Hoosiers team.

Robin has a comfort on air that just comes to her naturally. She has fit in from the day she arrived.

Robin had always wanted to go solo, so when it happened I wasn't angry at all. I understood the situation. But Barry is so full of pride and couldn't understand why Robin had done it.

Robin Gibb and the Bee Gees have been recognized around the world for decades, and now both their long-time fans, and new ones, will celebrate their music through a whole new variety of media distribution, capturing the urban, hip hop, country & pop genres of today.

Robin considers that crows are a fiery mixture of intelligence, tenacity and spirit poured into a frail body.

Robin considers herself an explorer whose discoveries are in the lines of a leaf or the turn of a cheekbone.

Robin and I had been good friends for nearly 30 years and that friendship survived our policy disagreements over Iraq, ... He was the greatest parliamentarian of his generation and a very fine foreign secretary. I deeply mourn his loss.

Robin Williams, by the way, is the most consummately skilled actor, and one of the funniest people I've ever encountered.

Robin went in there and did a very good job. He did not get beat on pass protection. We didn't miss a beat.

Robin was knocking shots away left and right. I knew she had a lot. I didn't it was that many until I looked at the stats afterward. It was impressive.

Robin was an outstanding, extraordinary talent - brilliant, incisive in debate, of incredible skill and persuasive power,

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.

Robin is the ultimate class act. I'm a big fan of Robin Tobias.

Robin is a rare life force. She's someone you just want to be around all the time. In the past year, she has played a growing role on the program and this was easiest, most natural, and most obvious decision and transition.

Robin is an exceptional athlete and for him to win Australia's first gold medal at an Olympic or world championship has given the program a huge boost.

Robin is an amazing talent. Technically, he is the best in Holland.

Robin Hood Prince of Thieves is about a communist sympathizer in tights who, uh, takes people's hard earned money and gives it to lazy people.

Robin Hood could brave all weathers but a thaw wind.

My whole life, I heard, 'Jingle bells, Batman smells, Robin laid an egg.' It's all I heard throughout elementary school.

I was in my bath and looked down-my body was covered with bruises. When Robin came home from the hospital, he had bruises in exactly the same places.

I think it will be a reverse Robin Hood budget.

I was proud of 'Robin Hood,' even though critics wrote negative things. But I had to laugh when this big, shaven-headed Hungarian stunt guy first saw me. He said, 'You Jonas? You playing Robin Hood? You need to go to the gym today.' So I thought, 'I'm going to show people.'

Miami has been my home since we moved the Nasdaq-100 Open to Key Biscayne in 1987 and I relish the opportunity to support important charitable causes such as the Greater Miami Tennis Foundation through events such as the Jim Berry Tennis Classic and the Robin Givens Night with the Stars.

When I think of robin migration, I think of the concept of waves.

Yes, that's a pity, because we had a long-term plan with Johan. Robin now gets an opportunity to show what he can do at this level.

We got to go to Lucas Ranch and, at that time, my brother was still living in a condo about a mile from Robin Williams, and so I made all of the other comics jealous because I got to get a ride home with him.

We got off to a slow start, but got that nice run to come back and take the lead. That got us going and we played real well after that with both Robin and Mindy hitting some big three-pointers for us.

When I was a kid, it was a little bit exciting working with Peter Weir and Robin Williams, but that faded pretty quickly for me.

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 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.

We saw him going into a parking lot near Robin Imaging Services (at Central Parkway at Mohawk Place).

What America needs is not Robin Hood but Adam Smith.

To be honest, looking at the judging with the Robin Reid fight I don't think I'd go to Florida, because that was disgusting the way Robin Reid got cheated,

'Boomerang!' I love that movie just because of Halle Berry, Robin Givens, Eddie Murphy, Grace Jones and Eartha Kitt. There were so many characters. As an actress, to see African-American actors be so diverse was different from what I was used to seeing.

Brook is more of a skilled perimeter player, while Robin is definitely an inside player. Robin is better defensively. He has a tremendous ability to block shots and rebound.

Blackburn started really quite well but we responded and proved how strong we are. Robin came on and scored two fantastic goals.

Fiscal 2005 represented a record year for Red Robin in terms of revenue, earnings, and new restaurant openings - all are milestones for which the entire team should be very proud. We continued to experience good guest traffic growth which is a testament to our appeal to America's families, our strong price to value relationship, as well as the outstanding experiences that Red Robin team members are creating for our guests.

The robin population is variable from one winter to the next.

The Robin Hood Motel. Use your imagination - it probably was as bad as it sounds. We're really low-budget.

I've never seen somebody that famous, ever, ... More than Robin Williams walking down the street in Boston, this guy would walk down the street in Italy and grandmothers would be hanging out of their windows yelling, 'Fiorello, Fiorello.'

I've always loved history, from my youngest memories. My father enjoyed the great stories of history, like Hereward the Wake, Robin Hood, and Richard the Lionheart, and he shared them with me. I went on to do a degree in history, though I found it rather dry, because it was mostly about politics rather than dashing individuals!

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.

Sadly, this is the same old Republican story of Robin Hood in reverse - tax cuts for the rich while programs for average and low income Americans suffer.

Pyle is considered the author of Robin Hood.

Alas! in winter, dead and dark,Where can poor Robin go?

They played a very good game against us in round robin but we were able to take a couple of big ends and that made the difference in that game.

There was no selfishness. You'd have Robin Ventura oh-for-four with three K's coming in in the eighth inning saying, 'Come on, boys, don't wait for me to carry you.' Just things like that where when he said that, you knew things were OK,

Absolutely yes, I feel like the winner because G4 are doing so well. As well as doing a second album and having a successful tour, they've done duets with people like Cliff Richard, Robin Gibb and Lesley Garrett.

It's easier to just fight to defend your title. After the Robin Reid fight, people said you should have knocked him out. If I knock a guy out, they say he's a bum. Nobody will be able to say that about Jeff Lacy. There is no debating Jeff Lacy. A win is a win now and I need to win this fight.

I tried a robin heart once. It wasn't very good.

I tried to set Robin up as much as I could.

Then it's merrily, merrily, merrily, whoa! To the old gray church they come and go, Some to be married and some to be buried And Old Robin has gone for the mail

Everybody has their own bed. The principal of Dogwood Elementary, Robin Cochran, gave me one inflatable bed, a teacher there gave me another one and we bought one more.

Edward's the kind of actor who is always nosing into it, trying to find it, looking for it, and searching and Robin is, too, but in his own way.

It's topsy-turvy Robin Hood take from the poor to give to the rich. The average citizen won't have to think about eminent domain, but it could happen to anyone.

They were not Robin Hood, stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, they were stealing from children and giving to themselves.

On behalf of the Christiansburg Fire Department, we would like to thank Red Robin for choosing to support us during its opening week celebration. This donation will help us educate the community about fire safety and ensure each home has a working fire detector.

I'm proud of the response and I'm not surprised. Robin and I received a lot of support while we were here. People were so generous to us and other players here. Once people find out what it's for, they come through. This is a way to give back to the community. People are interested and want to be a part of helping improve quality of life.

I know what you're saying ... (Bradley) ain't exactly Robin Williams.

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'm looking forward to being able to come to Miami and help my friend and Chicago co-star Robin Givens raise money for the Greater Miami Tennis Foundation. I can't guarantee that my tennis talent equals up to my savvy dancing, but I'm certainly going to try and put my best foot forward on the tennis court and enjoying myself at Robin's dinner.

I hope it doesn't cause any added distress to Robin Cook's family.

I really do think that Robin coming back to us is an indication we have a chance. I don't think he would, otherwise. From that standpoint, we think we're going into it with a chance.

He's very excited about the announcement. Robin was pushing for this agreement for the benefit of the industry. If they're happy, he is.
