Zelda Williams's Heartfelt Tribute to Father Robin: 'I'll Try to Keep Looking Up

External Image


In the sad aftermath of Robin Williams's shocking suicide Monday morning, the comedian's daughter Zelda memorialized her father with a touching passage from Antoine de Saint-Exupery's The Little Prince.

"You – you alone will have the stars as no one else has them," the 25-year-old wrote on Twitter, quoting the 1943 classic of children's literature.

"In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars were laughing, when you look at the sky at night."

In her own words, Zelda added: "I love you. I miss you. I'll try to keep looking up."

I was waiting to hear her response. I feel so bad for her, this is so very sad. I just never saw this coming, of all the celebrities I would expect to hear news like this, I didn't realize it would be one of my favorite actors.

I wrote that same quote in a card for my friend whose mom passed away. Such a beautiful tribute.

I'm still shocked by this news. To think he made it his life's mission to make others happy... and yet he couldn't find happiness for himself. It's so heartbreaking. That quote is beautiful and so fitting. Chat Icon Chat Icon

How awful for her. Beautiful tribute though. I hope she will be OK. My Aunts (through marriage) father committed suicide when she was a teenager and to this day, she still thinks that even though she knew he had demons, how was she not enough to live for.......
