Ricky Schroder Quotes

I’ve had a very fortunate career and I’ve loved every moment of it Picture Quote #1

Silver Spoons’ was great memories - absolutely the best Picture Quote #1

I did a lot of gasoline commercials - Hess, Texaco. I was part of the family in the car, the little brat in the back Picture Quote #1

My career was full of struggles and dreams, disappointments and peaks and valleys. But there was no Twitter, no Facebook or TMZ. Young actors could make mistakes and not become the focus of tabloids Picture Quote #1

I feel cheesy when I see ‘Silver Spoons.’ Some of it was funny, but some of it was just cheese! My kids love it, but I look at it and cringe Picture Quote #1

I always had a separate life than just my work. I built my own family. I have my own hobbies and interests. I have a ranch with livestock and horses. I didn’t always get my self-esteem and identity from acting. I never worked unless I wanted to. I never did anything just to do it, just for the paycheck. I always did things that I liked Picture Quote #1

I became a country music fan in 1990 when I moved to Colorado. It was my first exposure to it because I’m from a city. I’ve been a fan of country music ever since Picture Quote #1

I’m really into sci-fi. The reason I’m an actor is because of ‘Star Wars’ - I saw that and I knew that’s what I wanted to do. But most of the projects I’m offered as an actor are straightforward dramas, so I haven’t really been given a chance to do that kind of role Picture Quote #1

In the John Wayne movies, the Indians were savages that were trying to scalp you. That culture has really suffered because of the stereotype you see in those westerns Picture Quote #1

Nashville feels like a big little town to me. It’s got lots of culture and lots of interesting things to do and lots of interesting people. At the same time, it feels very small and tight-knit and very close. Everyone feels like they know each other Picture Quote #1

If the Indian people want stories written about themselves, how they want them told, they are going to have to make them, they’re going to have to finance them. If you let Hollywood do it, Hollywood is going to get it wrong most of the time Picture Quote #1

I have been a huge nerd to my kids. I haven’t done the cool movies that they like. With 24,’ I gained a lot of respect. 24’ is now, it’s hip, it’s their generation Picture Quote #1

There are always moments of despair when you get close to jobs and lose them at the last second. It feels like getting punched in the stomach. You feel like, ‘Why do I do this?’ Then you go to bed, get up the next day and forget about it Picture Quote #1

I didn’t grow up around wild horses, no. But I’ve appreciated their beauty and their power ever since I can remember Picture Quote #1

I was married at 20 and had a baby by 21. I had to grow up fast. Luckily there were people who believed in me and there were always jobs when I needed one Picture Quote #1

I worked with creative people who were very demanding of me, and they helped me reach performances that I never could have gotten on my own without being pushed and having trust in them. And so I know the best way to get the best performance of an actor, and that’s not to coddle them or to baby them. It’s to help them; it’s to push them Picture Quote #1

I have a career I am proud of as a child actor. I’m not running away from it or embarassed with anything I did Picture Quote #1

My daughter’s wanted to be an actress since she was six years old, but I didn’t want her to go through the same experiences as I did as a child actor Picture Quote #1

I spent my whole childhood wishing I were older and now I’m spending my adulthood wishing I were younger Picture Quote #1

I have fond memories of my childhood. I spent five wonderful years on a popular TV show, but I didn’t have a normal childhood. I was tutored for grades 4-11 Picture Quote #1

Finding the discipline, the motivation, the focus, the passion to sit down in front of a blank piece of paper or a blank computer screen every day and then to make it come alive with characters and with plot is incredibly exciting and at the same time terrifying and frustrating, and sometimes it comes easy and sometimes it comes really hard Picture Quote #1

I can be tough on actors, but I also let them know early on in our relationship what I expect from them Picture Quote #1

I know when an actor is giving it his/her all and when they’re just phoning it in Picture Quote #1

A horrible script 99 percent of the time means a horrible movie. But if you start with a good script, odds are you’re going to have a good movie Picture Quote #1

I have a great family myself so I know if you don’t have a family you’ve got nothing. Nothing else can take the place of the family - not girlfriends or a career Picture Quote #1

Working on ‘NYPD Blue’ and 24’, those two series, I did full runs on those. It’s great work, but everything has to align. The producers have to want you; the network has to want you; there has to be great writing; and it’s not as easy as it may appear to the outsiders to make all those things align Picture Quote #1

I’ve found joy, peace and perspective. Those are very good things to have Picture Quote #1

You always hear about people going through miscarriages and you never understand what one is like unless you go through it Picture Quote #1

There are going to be peaks and valleys in everything - in your marriage, in your job, in your life. So just enjoy the peaks and ride out the valleys. Just try not to do anything too rash Picture Quote #1

I love horror. I love ‘The Shining,’ ‘Friday the 13th,’ ‘Halloween,’ all those kinds of things. I love zombies, especially 28 Days Later’ and 28 Weeks Later,’ where the zombies are going faster than the George Romero ones. I love being scared; there’s something that’s awesome about your heart rate going up like that Picture Quote #1
