We know that if memory is destroyed in one part of the brain, it can be sometimes re-created on a different part of the brain. And once we can unravel that amino chain of chemicals that is responsible for memory, I see no reason why we can't unlock it and, essentially, wipe out what's there.
J. Michael Straczynski
I want to have time. When you're doing a monthly book, you're like a man racing after a bus. You're breathless and red-faced. I want to build in quality control.
J. Michael Straczynski
If your going to have delusions, you might as well go for the really satisfying ones.
J. Michael Straczynski
It was the dawn of the third age of mankind.

Thank you, but I'm afraid I can't accept your compliment. You see, I'm an atheist, so if I'm also God, that would mean that I don't believe in myself, and at this point in my life, I don't need the added insecurity.
J. Michael Straczynski
If I feel that I'm not able to do my best work - whether that's my own fault or as a result of an editorial situation - then I need to stop doing it. I would rather not do something than do it badly or ineffectively. It's the only way I can live with myself and do right by the fans in the long haul.

I am a huge zombie fan. I have probably seen the George Romero movies 100 times each, without exaggeration.
J. Michael Straczynski
When the Seinfeld show said it was going to be a show about nothing, everybody said it couldn't - wouldn't work. It did. Thor is about something, about that character finding his destiny, but it's not doing what was expected... and yet it's doing very well.
J. Michael Straczynski
Half-way through any big project, everyone forgets what they're doing.
J. Michael Straczynski
I sometimes find reality far more fantastical and unlikely than what I could just make up.
J. Michael Straczynski
I've made a decision and now I must face the consequences.
J. Michael Straczynski
On a purely personal level, it's very strange, because as a kid, Superman informed my personality. Now I've been given the job of forming Superman's personality and, in some ways, drawing on my own background.
J. Michael Straczynski
The universe considers me its personal cat toy.
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
Coming from TV and film, rule number one is that you always service the main character first and foremost. If that's not working, you've got nothing.
J. Michael Straczynski
If a person with a bullet in Dallas can change the world, imagine a person with an idea could do.
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
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
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
A lot of the futuristic space stuff seemed to me to be a very cool form of science-fiction, so that was my first real baptism in the genre.
