Hollywood legend Robin Williams tells you how to make your life spectacular and why it’s all worth it in the end.
Transcript:
You know, as we come to the end of this phase of our life,
we find ourselves trying to remember the good times
and trying to forget the bad times,
and we find ourselves thinking about the future.
We start to worry , thinking, “What am I gonna do?
Where am I gonna be in ten years?”
But I say to you, “Hey, look at me!”
Please, don’t worry so much.
Because in the end, none of us have very long on this Earth.
Life is fleeting.
And if you’re ever distressed, cast your eyes to the summer sky
when the stars are strung across the velvety night.
And when a shooting star streaks through the blackness, turning night into day…
make a wish and think of me.
Make your life spectacular.
I know I did.
Robin Williams was a comedic genius and beloved actor who brought joy and laughter to millions of people around the world. However, his death in 2014 shocked and saddened his fans and the entertainment industry as a whole. Williams died by suicide, revealing that behind his comedic genius and fame, he was battling with mental health issues, including depression and anxiety.
In his quote, Williams reminds us of the importance of living life to the fullest and not worrying too much about the future. He encourages us to focus on the present moment and to make our lives spectacular. He reminds us that life is short and fleeting, and we should make the most of the time we have on this Earth.
However, despite his inspiring words, Williams struggled with mental health issues that ultimately led to his death. His death serves as a reminder of the importance of mental health and seeking help when we need it. It also highlights the fact that mental illness does not discriminate, even affecting those who seem to have it all.
In life, we often place unnecessary pressures on ourselves due to perceived expectations from others. With Robin Williams, the pressure to constantly perform and be in the public eye took a toll on his mental health, and his tragic end shows the devastating consequences that can result. Despite his comedic and dramatic success, his philanthropic generosity, and strong support network, it’s difficult to fathom the extent of his struggles. If only he could have remembered his own words once more that fateful day, he may have set worry aside or sought help which many would have been happy to give.
Williams’ death should give us pause to reflect on the blessings in our own lives and to recognize that we may be a lifeline for someone else. By pausing but for a moment, listening, and paying attention to those around us, we can make a difference in someone’s life. This, in turn, can make our own lives more meaningful and fulfilling, perhaps making all of our lives more spectacular than we could know!
Robin Williams’ quote serves as a powerful reminder to live life to the fullest and to cherish the present moment. I think it also should serve as a reminder to acknowledge and let others know we are not in this alone, help is near with a willing ear and a friendly shoulder to lean upon.

We all forget what a difference a willing ear or a friendly shoulder to lean upon can make.
While what we do and experience in life is important, who we are to each other is what can truly make your life spectacular.
