Richard Quotes
"Happiness has a bad rap. People say it shouldn't be your goal in life. Oh, yes it should."
"I don't know what its like for most actors, but really clearly for myself acting has always been the fulfilment of personal fantasies. It isn't just art, its about being a person I've always wanted to be, or being in a situation, or being a hero."
"We thought that we could predict what the world would be like, there would be wars, plagues. But then drugs happened and drugs have destroyed our society. I don't mean we're all crumbling amidst the ruins but there is no part of our life that is not impacted : culture, media, finance, everything is distorted by this little thing."

Movie Quotes
American Graffiti
"Steven! Cut over to G street. I just saw a vision! I saw a goddess! C'mon you gotta catch up to her! Laurie, I'm telling you! This was the most perfect, dazzling creature I've ever seen! She spoke to me. She spoke to me right through the window.... I think she said 'I love you'. That means nothing to you people? You have no romance? No soul? She, someone wants me, someone roaming the streets wants me! Will you turn the corner?"
The Goodbye Girl
"I really don't think they robbed you because I'm an actor."
"I'm paying the rent, I will maka da rules. I like to take showers every morning and I don't..like..the panties..drying on the rod. I like to cook so I will use the kitchen whenever I damn well please, and I'm very particular about my condiments, so keep your salt n' pepper to yourself. Plus, I play the guitar in the middle of the night whenever I cannot sleep, and I meditate every morning complete with chanting and burning incense, so if you've gotta walk around I'd appreciate a little tip-toeing. Also, I sleep in the nude...a buffo. Winter and summer, rain or snow with the windows open. And because I don't want to put on jammies, which I do not own in the first place, unless you're looking for a quick thrill or your daughter an advanced education, I would keep my door closed. Them's my rules and regulations, how does that grab you?"
Stand By Me
"It happens sometimes. Friends come in and out of our lives like busboys in a restaurant."
