I did my English A level in England, and we studied Shakespeare. I had great, great high school teachers, and we parsed the text within an inch of its life.

More quotes by Joss Whedon
I describe television as feminine and movies as masculine, in the sense that television wants to examine a problem from all sides and talk about it for a long time, and movies just want to hit the climax and then maybe have a smoke.
Joss Whedon
Women all live a double standard, but this is actually sort of a beautifully grotesque parody of it. There's a weird kind of joy that I have in seeing [Hillary Clinton] trounce this essence of male bullshit.
Joss Whedon
I think Hillary Clinton is vastly intelligent and good-hearted and extremely qualified.
Joss Whedon
Writers are completely out of touch with reality.
Joss Whedon
You give my regards to St. Peter, or whoever has his job, but in Hell.
Joss Whedon
I've become less cynical, which is appalling but kind of cool.
Joss Whedon
I'm not great at fear. I made the least frightening vampire show ever on TV. I'm pretty much good at heroic narratives and making people laugh, and that's pretty much it.
Joss Whedon
Tonight sucks. And look at me. Look at - look at stupid Buffy. Too dumb for college, and-and-and freak Buffy, too strong for construction work. And-and my job at the magic shop? I was bored to tears even before the hour that wouldn't end. And the only person that I can even stand to be around is a... neutered vampire who cheats at kitten poker.
Joss Whedon
I don't want the giant ego. I don't want to become Kevin Costner, singing on the soundtrack to The Postman.
Joss Whedon
Shiny, let's be bad guys!
Joss Whedon
It's only recently women got to be action heroes on TV. Progress is slow, and often non-existent. There's plenty of cool comics with female characters... But all it takes is one Catwoman to set the cause back a decade.
Joss Whedon
If I kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.
Joss Whedon
My people - before I was changed - they exchanged this as a sign of devotion. It's a Claddagh ring. The hands represent friendship the crown represents loyalty... and the heart... Well, you know... Wear it with the heart pointing towards you. It means you belong to somebody. Like this.
Joss Whedon
I have had a dream my whole life... and it was not this good.
Joss Whedon
Do you love me? What? Do you? I love you. I don't know if I trust you. Maybe you shouldn't do either. Maybe I'm the one who should decide!
Joss Whedon
I'm Joan of Arc. I figured we had a lot in common, seeing as how I was almost burned at the stake. And plus she had that close relationship with God.
Joss Whedon
There is always backlash. Everything gets backlash.
Joss Whedon
Most people don't see Hamlet as an old bald guy.
Joss Whedon
I set out in television with one simple goal: to purchase a Russian bride. Didn't work out. Immigration stuff - it's complicated.
Joss Whedon
Doctor, I'm taking your sister under my protection. If any thing happens to her, anything at all, I swear to you I will get very choked up. Honestly, there could be tears.
