The one thing a creator can bring to the table when everybody else has all the money and power is centeredness and the ability to walk away. Never sit at a table you can't walk away from.
Joss Whedon
The thing about a hero, is even when it doesn't look like there's a light at the end of the tunnel, he's going to keep digging, he's going to keep trying to do right and make up for what's gone before, just because that's who he is.
Joss Whedon
Now there’s us, staking out our piece of cinematic turf (might be small but it’s ours). And the music has to fit the vision as specifically as it did for [Star Wars and The Matrix.] OUR music comes from THEIR music, this scrappled bunch. It is spare, intimate, mournful and indefatigable.
Joss Whedon
I don't write just to be clever. But sometimes I do. And if you don't have an understanding of the language, then the way in which it's bent doesn't actually register. It's the old you-gotta-paint-like-them-before-you-can-paint-like-you thing.
Joss Whedon
Are you all right? Oh my god! I phased! Are you all right? Are you? It was strange. I can't believe I phased just then! That's never...it was totally your fault. I like to think so, yes. Tee hee.
Joss Whedon
I'm not a control freak - I'm a control enthusiast.
Joss Whedon
Equality is not a concept. It's not something we should be striving for. It's a necessity. Equality is like gravity. We need it to stand on this earth as men and women.
Joss Whedon
I write to be the characters that I am not.
Joss Whedon
Casting is storytelling.
Joss Whedon
The goal is always about the next story. It's always about the thing I haven't done before. It's about learning, or it's about becoming better, and it's about whatever story grabs hold of me.
Joss Whedon
That all you got...Bub?
Joss Whedon
People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple.
Joss Whedon
You take people, you put them on a journey, you give them peril, you find out who they really are.
Joss Whedon
This voting thing is actually beautiful. Not just necessary - it's a wonderful thing and it makes you powerful. And we've forgotten that in the most negative [president's] campaign in history.
Joss Whedon
There's a time and place for everything, and I believe it’s called 'fan fiction'.
Joss Whedon
Remember to always be yourself. Unless you suck.
Joss Whedon
Let freedom ring, unless it's on vibrate.
Joss Whedon
He's like Super Librarian, y'know? Everyone forgets, Willow, that knowledge is the ultimate weapon.
Joss Whedon
Who is to say who is the villain and who is the hero? Probably the dictionary.
Joss Whedon
Every vampire fiction reinvents vampires to its own needs. You take what you want.
