More quotes by J. Michael Straczynski
The American Way is an amalgam of our compassion, our strengths, our failings and our attempts to build a better world, a more perfect union.
J. Michael Straczynski
We walk in dark places no others will enter. We stand on the bridge and no one may pass. We live for the One. We die for the One. -- the Ranger oath
J. Michael Straczynski
My house looks like it was decorated by a 14-year old with a platinum American Express card.
J. Michael Straczynski
When a book of mine comes out, I instantly go hunting the net, not for praise, but for criticism, because that's how you learn, from people who don't have to be polite to you.
J. Michael Straczynski
NEVER SURRENDER DREAMS If we are to be who we are if we are to accomplish great things then we must learn the heart's most essential rule: NEVER SURRENDER DREAMS
J. Michael Straczynski
There was a point when comics were considered to be mainly of interest to kids, and it was decided that kids could relate more to someone their own age than an adult. So suddenly all these previously grownup comics were lousy with sidekicks: Aquagirl, Aqualad, Robin, Kid Flash, Speedy, Stripesy... the list goes on.

Superhero stories are kind of in my DNA from childhood on, so I think I'm genetically drawn to playing in the genre when the opportunity presents itself.
J. Michael Straczynski
Anyone who sets foot into the Watchmen universe and isn't just a little nervous should be given a few days of electroshock therapy. I've always considered Watchmen to be one of the best graphic novels ever written, and when it came out back in 1986 I was as blown away as everyone else. Just masterful.
J. Michael Straczynski
Whenever you can bring your chops in as a reporter to unearth a cool story, that's always a good thing.
J. Michael Straczynski
The only thing that I discovered very early on is that, even though we might change schools and cities and towns and states, the books in the library were the same. They had the same covers. They had the same characters. I could go and visit those people in the library as if I knew them.
J. Michael Straczynski
Understanding is a three-edged sword. Your side, my side, and the truth.
J. Michael Straczynski
The more important the emotion is, the fewer words required to express it: Will you go out with me? I think I like you. I care for you. I love you. Marry me. Goodbye.
J. Michael Straczynski
When it comes down to it, the reason that science fiction endures is that it is, at its core, an optimistic genre. What it says at the end of the day is that there is a tomorrow, we do go on, we don't extinguish ourselves and leave the planet to the cockroaches.
J. Michael Straczynski
Take care, don't fight, and remember: if you do not choose to lead, you will forever be led by others. Find what scares you, and do it. And you can make a difference, if you choose to do so.
J. Michael Straczynski
It was the dawn of the third age of mankind.
J. Michael Straczynski
I've changed my mind. I've decided that at the end I want to be cremated and my ashes scattered over someone I don't like.
J. Michael Straczynski
I'm all for teaching creation and allowing prayers in schools, as soon as scholars begin teaching Darwinism and geometry in church.
J. Michael Straczynski
They told us not to wish in the first place, not to aspire, not to try to be quiet, to play nice, to shoot low and aspire not at all. They are always wrong. Follow your dreams. Make your wishes. Create the future. And above all, believe in yourself.
J. Michael Straczynski
It's been amazing to watch, because for Thor, which was always a mid-selling book, to be in the top ten for every single issue since the reboot is just a great compliment.
J. Michael Straczynski
It is not for the gods to decide whether or not Man exists - it is for Man to decide whether or not the gods exist.
