" Originally published in the September 2002 issue.  MARK ROMANEK: When I met you the first time, I thought it was a courtesy meeting. And then at lunch you said, I&amp;#039;d like to do it,&amp;quot; and I did an Alan King spit take. ROBIN WILLIAMS: I was looking for anything I hadn&amp;#039;t done before. It&amp;#039;s weird that this script came and then Insomnia came. I didn&amp;#039;t all of a sudden say, &amp;quot;Keep finding me murderers, let&amp;#039;s keeping pushing the envelope until we finally do Goebbels on Ice.&amp;quot; MR: The reason it made perfect sense that you play this role\u2014even though it did seem odd initially\u2014is that you always play outsiders. RW: Right. Very lonely characters. Being an only child, I&amp;#039;m not wondering where that came from. MR: Like in Awakenings or Good Morning Vietnam... RW: Yeah, even Mork was an outsider. This guy coming in with a totally different perspective. MR: What do you think Mork wanted? RW: He wanted to get laid. He didn&amp;#039;t know it, but his penis was his nose, which makes it so difficult. Every time he blew his nose, he fell asleep, which is so strange. MR: One thing I realized while filming this movie is that it&amp;#039;s interesting to watch an actor who&amp;#039;s repressing a lot. And you were repressing a volcano. RW: Oliver Sacks says that he thinks I have voluntary Tourette&amp;#039;s. When I perform, all of a sudden there&amp;#039;s the same release. MR: Do you ever feel it&amp;#039;s involuntary Tourette&amp;#039;s? RW: Sometimes when I do something and I can&amp;#039;t come back. Like the time I was on Comic Relief and I started doing the ventriloquist thing with Billy Crystal, but I kind of put my hand between his legs and did a talking penis. And then I went to Whoopi and started to do a talking vagina, then my mind went, Oh, stop. I couldn&amp;#039;t. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
