Bob Ross People Quotations

I don't intimidate anyone. Instead, I try to get people to believe in themselves.

We get letters every day from people wanting more mountains. As many as I paint, they still say, 'Give me more mountains.'

We show people that anybody can paint a picture that they're proud of. It may never hang in the Smithsonian, but it will certainly be something that they'll hang in their home and be proud of. And that's what it's all about.

People see you on television, and they think you make the same amount of money that Clint Eastwood does. But this is PBS. All these shows are done for free.

I have to paint fast on television because of the limited time, but I don't want people to see what I'm showing them as work, something to worry and fret over. This is supposed to be fun.

People look at me like I'm a little strange, when I go around talking to squirrels and rabbits and stuff. That's ok. That's just ok.

People might look at you a bit funny, but it's okay. Artists are allowed to be a bit different.

I guess I’m a little weird. I like to talk to trees and animals. That’s okay though; I have more fun than most people.
