Remembering Robin Williams
We were all stunned and shocked when he heard about Robin Williams’ death on August 11. It made me think of all of the great performances he had graced us with over the past forty years, but then I thought about his words. Geoff Weiss, a staff writer for Entrepreneur Magazine put together a list of Robin Williams 10 Most Inspirational Quotes you will want to read. My favorite quote is this one:
“It’s a wonderful feeling when your father becomes not a god but a man to you — when he comes down from the mountain and you see he’s this man with weaknesses. And you love him as this whole being, not as a figurehead.”
You may also want to comment on this thread I started on Facebook to get over the initial shock of this tragedy.

Love those quotes Connie. Clearly, there was much more to him than we all realized.
I’ve enjoyed watching all the clips of his performances that others have posted, too – especially the Mork & Mindy skits – but my favorite Robin Williams movie will always be “The World According to Garp.”
Connie Ragen Green says
Thanks so much for stopping by, Cindy. Yes, ‘Garp’ was a great example of his work.
