Okay, uh, I'm lost. I'm angry. And I'm armed.

Everything we do really is just a little marker on the long road to death. And sometimes that’s overwhelmingly depressing to me, and sometimes it makes me feel kinship and forgiveness. We’ve all got the same ending to the story. The way we make that story more elaborate, I got to respect.

Let freedom ring, unless it's on vibrate.

Bottom line is, even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So what are we, helpless? Puppets?

What I do like is hiking. And that's what filmmaking is. It's a hike. It's challenging and exhausting, and you don't know what the terrain is going to be or necessarily even which direction you're going in... but it sure is beautiful.

I set out in television with one simple goal: to purchase a Russian bride. Didn't work out. Immigration stuff - it's complicated.

Remember to always be yourself. Unless you suck.

If I kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

You have, which is a rare thing, the ability and the responsibility to listen to the dissent in yourself. To at least give it the floor. Because it is the key, not only to consciousness, but to real growth.

Very occasionally, if you pay really close attention, life doesn't suck.

I am the immaculate embodiment of worlds.

This is a sad, sad reflection on our times, when people must feed off the carcasses of beloved stories from their youths – just because they can't think of an original idea of their own, like I did with my Avengers idea that I made up myself.

I keep thinking they’re gonna call me. I keep thinking they’re gonna crunch the numbers and think, oh, we can make money with this! And they don’t.

Oddly enough, I never studied writing. I studied almost everything except writing.

My life has included a study of Shakespeare and to me it's very natural, but I know that it's not always accessible to other people.

In production, in the first couple of weeks of production, that it was more like making an internet musical.
