SHE is defiant.
Robin Williams’ daughter Zelda has returned to the social media network Twitter.

Zelda’s first tweet went to a link to her Tumblr page of a quote from actor Harvey Fierstein — who played Frank Hillard alongside Robin in 1993 movie Mrs. Doubtfire.
It read: “Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one’s definition of your life; define yourself.”
Her Twitter post simply read: “Thank you.”
Zelda decided to quit her Twitter account on August 12 after two trolls posted a fake photo claiming it was her dad’s body.
Zelda wrote: “Please report @PimpStory @MrGoosebuster. I’m shaking. I can’t. Please. Twitter requires a link and I won’t open it. Don’t either. Please.’”
She added moments later: ”I’m sorry. I should’ve risen above. Deleting this from my devices for a good long time, maybe forever. Time will tell. Goodbye.”
Zelda used the social network to let people know her feelings to her father and to the wonderful times they shared.
After Williams’ shock death on August 11, Zelda tweeted:.
“You — you alone will have the stars as no one else has them ... 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 ... You — only you will have stars that can laugh.”
It was a quote from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s literary classic The Little Prince.
