I don't think Aaron Sorkin can write a character who isn't really funny.

More quotes by Clark Gregg
Joss Whedon and all the writers of 'Iron Man' and 'Thor' found a way to keep Coulson saying something that keeps you guessing. I'm really lucky because a lot of people play agents and don't get nearly as much fun stuff to do.
Clark Gregg
I guess what we know about the Avengers is there's a reason why all of the heroes that we've been meeting, from Thor to Captain America - everybody - they need to work together.
Clark Gregg
I thought there would be more time in my trailer to write during 'Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.,' but I seem to be always flying in a harness and conquering supervillains instead.
Clark Gregg
I'm not secretly on the board of Marvel.
Clark Gregg
All the PG-13 superhero movies are depriving me of the gore that I need.
Clark Gregg
No matter how tight the shot is, if I'm narrating it too much, there's a barrier between you and the experience, because the process of reading a book, or watching a movie, or watching a play is that you're watching a dream.
Clark Gregg
Sometimes you can do Shakespeare and you're still not an actor.
Clark Gregg
It was cool to me, as a fan of the comics, to see some of the villains that end up finding them there, and the way that they abuse Coulson before the superheroes come. I'm always, in the movies or in the animated series, getting into trouble that a superhero has to bail me out of.
Clark Gregg
I'm just an actor who happened to love these [Marvel] comics when I was a kid, and got to rediscover them.
Clark Gregg
There's always changes in the way they do that in the cinematic universe. I think, with the S.H.I.E.L.D. 2.0, you're seeing some of the first ripples of those different points of view on what S.H.I.E.L.D. should be when it's rebuilt. I'm very, very curious to know which side Coulson will end up on in that struggle.
Clark Gregg
I had worked in this New York theatre company for my first eight or nine years out of college, acting and directing there, and I'd begun to write a little bit.
Clark Gregg
I felt like people really do their best work when they're having a really good time and feel safe to push the envelope and make a jackass out of themselves.
Clark Gregg
I think most of the actors that I know that I think are good are kind of funny people. There's just something about being alive to the truth of a moment that makes a good joke that also makes a good actor.
Clark Gregg
I'd be just another Marvel fan, only with a little bit bigger smile, when I would get the script and be like, Oh, my gosh, Agent Coulson knows that?
Clark Gregg
With the tone of the show, like a lot of the films, the Marvel creative team has found a way to bridge really exciting stuff that has real stakes. They balance some of the action stuff that the fans of the comics really want to see with characters that people can relate to and who are very human.
Clark Gregg
It's a little strange, after all these years of working on camera, but once you start to watch the other people who do this a lot and realize how much of what you're doing has to just come through your voice, I found it really interesting.
Clark Gregg
Because I'm stern and scolding [the characters] sometimes, I'm sure I'll get a ton of grief.
Clark Gregg
The hardest thing to get right is to figure out how to bring all those characters together, and to fulfill the promise of The Avengers. They really set a very high bar for themselves because you've been setting this coalition up, for these five movies, and they better deliver. And in my opinion, they thoroughly deliver.
Clark Gregg
What I love about Coulson is that he manages to do that and he manages to wrangle the diva superheroes, and really keep a sense of humor about it. And, you can tell that he really loves his job.
Clark Gregg
I was really sad after 'The Avengers' when I realized I was not going to have a part in 'Thor 2' or 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier.' But I'm not arguing with my fantastic plane and my really cool car.
