Finding your own voice

[Robin Williams on how he realized he had something unique to offer]

I was trying to find a unique voice versus a combination of other things. There was a big benefit show one night in San Francisco, and I really started to have a good time. I thought, "Hey, this is me! This isn't like Jonathan Winters or something." (Winters is one of Williams' biggest influences.) Everyone starts off kind of being someone else.
