- Think
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We need narrative; it feeds us in a particular way, and deconstructing it completely before you've actually experienced it, I think it leaves us unfed.
- Nov 07, 2020
Remember to always be yourself. Unless you suck.
- Ego
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't want the giant ego. I don't want to become Kevin Costner, singing on the soundtrack to The Postman.
- Buffy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
As far as I am concerned, the first episode of Buffy was the beginning of my career. It was the first time I told a story from start to finish the way I wanted.
- Atheist
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm a very hard-line, angry atheist. Yet I am fascinated by the concept of devotion.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I love to write. I love it. I mean there's nothin in the world I like better, and that includes sex, probably because I'm so very bad at it.
- Loneliness

- Nov 07, 2020
Loneliness is about the scariest thing out there.

Always be yourself... unless you suck.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I love fantasy. I love horror. I love musicals. Whatever doesn't really happen in life is what I'm interested in. As a way of commenting on everything that does happen in life, because ultimately the only thing I'm really interested in is people.
- Quality
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
That title, is one of the things I fought for. A lot of people said 'But it's stupid, and it's the title of a comedy movie, and people won't take it seriously,' and I'm sure there are some people who still don't. But for the most part, people do see that we really have a quality show.
- Leader
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I created Buffy, I wanted to create a female icon, but I also wanted to be very careful to surround her with men that not only have no problem with the idea of a female leader, but were in fact engaged and even attracted to the idea.
- He
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Buffy loves Angel. He loves her. And I love Ho Hos.
- Think
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think everyone who makes movies should be forced to do television. Because you have to finish. You have to get it done, and there are a lot of decisions made just for the sake of making decisions. You do something because it's efficient and because it gets the story told and it connects to the audience.
- Hero
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The thing about a hero, is even when it doesn't look like there's a light at the end of the tunnel, he's going to keep digging, he's going to keep trying to do right and make up for what's gone before, just because that's who he is.
- Emotional
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The two things that matter the most to me: emotional resonance and rocket launchers. Party of Five, a brilliant show, and often made me cry uncontrollably, suffered ultimately from a lack of rocket launchers.
- Buffy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I hate it when people talk about Buffy as being campy... I hate camp, I don't enjoy dumb TV. I believe Aaron Spelling has single-handedly lowered SAT scores.
- Be Yourself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Remember to always be yourself.
- Nov 07, 2020
Writers are completely out of touch with reality.
- Power
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There are two things that interest me - and they're both power, ultimately. One is not having it and one is abusing it.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If somebody comes up to me, it's because they're moved by something I'm moved by. I've never taken a job I didn't love... So when somebody's coming up to me, or they're writing, they're in the same space I am in.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've been to two festivals in my life, and I've never been to Toronto. I haven't really been making festival movies. This is new territory for me.
- Comedy
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There's a reason Tony Stark makes fun of 'Thor,' and mentions 'Shakespeare' in the park in 'The Avengers.' It's great to play high drama and comedy alongside a modern story.
- Books
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I can do web, comic books, macrame, art.
- End
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I used to write chronologically when I started, from beginning to end. Eventually I went, 'That's absurd; my heart is in this one scene, therefore I must follow it.'
- Conversation
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always enjoy conversation more if there is some substance to it - which is a just incredibly hilarious thing for me to say because for many, many years I was the guy whose only contribution to any conversation was, 'There was a funny 'Simpson's' joke about that.'
- Being
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Every writer loves the idea of being able to go in and fix a problem and then leave without obligation. It's fun!
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Everybody who labels themselves a 'nerd' isn't some giant person locked in a cubbyhole who's never seen the opposite sex. Especially with the way the Internet is now, I think that definition is getting a little more diffuse.
- Heroes
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I never tire of the heroes that I knew growing up.
- Book
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think there's a possibility that comic book movies are getting a tiny bit better on the one hand because they're no longer made by executives, who are, you know, ninety-year-old bald tailors with cigars, going, 'The kids love this!'
- Look
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I find that when you read a script, or rewrite something, or look at something that's been gone over, you can tell, like rings on a tree, by how bad it is, how long it's been in development.
