"I read The Easter Parade or Revolutionary Road every year. Richard Yates is just a good word-for-word on-the-page writer. He couldn’t be more different than someone like Joy Williams or Raymond Carver. His sentences are very complex, the stories are complicated and he was such a miserable man. I always like people who would hate me. I don’t know what that’s about. But Richard Yates would definitely hate me"

Robin Williams: Come Inside My Mind (2018)
2018 | Documentary
Robin Williams: Come Inside My Mind was such a wonderful documentary. I'm sure if he was still here he'd make a sexual joke about the title. At first the tears were from laughter, but by the end they were from pure heartache and sadness. It truly breaks my heart knowing a man like himself who brought so much joy to others through his life was in the end hurting so terribly. I just want to reach through the screen and give him the sincerest of hugs. Let's all keep that spark of madness we each have lit for him. Nanu nanu.
