More quotes by Joss Whedon
As far as I am concerned, the first episode of Buffy was the beginning of my career. It was the first time I told a story from start to finish the way I wanted.
Joss Whedon
I loved teaching and I did a lot of work as a teacher's assistant in college, and my favorite experience was basically getting a laugh from a bunch of people because they had just understood something. Because I had shown them something they hadn't seen before, and it amused them. That's the combo platter. That's a perfect moment.
Joss Whedon
Stay crunchy, even in milk.
Joss Whedon
I've seen plenty of films where the projector broke. The problems that we have in the digital age are exactly the same as we had. Instead of, 'There's a hair in the gate,' it's, 'The computer ate the footage.' There will always be things like that going on. Nothing is perfect.
Joss Whedon
The problem is I want to do everything. I really love all of it, and I love every aspect of movie-making and storytelling, and I love television, I love the Internet. I wish I had time to do absolutely everything.
Joss Whedon
The thing about changing the world... Once you do it, the world's all different.
Joss Whedon
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
Every writer loves the idea of being able to go in and fix a problem and then leave without obligation. It's fun!
Joss Whedon
I have a desperate longing to have a desperate longing
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
I've never watched reality shows, except for the Great British Bake Off, which is magnificent.
Joss Whedon
You do not want a war. You have known violence, you have suffered loss, but you have seen nothing of war. War is not just the business of death it is the anti-thesis of life. Hope, tortured and flayed, reason, dismembered, grinning at its limbs in its lap. Decency, raped to death... You will be a murderer and more.
Joss Whedon
I'm the least confident person in so many ways. But I believed that if somebody gave me the chance to tell a story, I would tell a story [well enough] that the person who gave me the chance would get their money back.
Joss Whedon
What I love most about icons is finding out what's behind them, exploring the price of their power.
Joss Whedon
I never tire of the heroes that I knew growing up.
Joss Whedon
I am the immaculate embodiment of worlds.
Joss Whedon
I'm very much of the make it dark, make it grim, make it tough, but then, for the love of God, tell a joke.
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
If nothing we do matters... , then all that matters is what we do
Joss Whedon
Everybody who made it through adolescence is a hero.
