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.

The first lesson a watcher learns is to separate truth from illusion. Because in the world of magics, it's the hardest thing to do.
Joss Whedon
No one's going to go see the story of Othello going to get a peaceful divorce.
Joss Whedon
The hardest thing in this world, is to live in it.
Joss Whedon
Faith in God means believing absolutely in something with no proof whatsoever. Faith in humanity means believing absolutely in something with a huge amount of proof to the contrary. We are the true believers.
Joss Whedon
I don't want to create responsible shows with lawyers in them. I want to invade people's dreams.

I think there's a possibility that comic book movies are getting a tiny bit better on the one hand because they're no longer made by executives, who are, you know, ninety-year-old bald tailors with cigars, going, 'The kids love this!'
Joss Whedon
I designed 'Buffy' to be an icon, to be an emotional experience, to be loved in a way that other shows can't be loved. Because it's about adolescence, which is the most important thing people go through in their development, becoming an adult.
Joss Whedon
Veronica solves little puzzles because she, like all of us, cannot unravel the bigger ones.
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
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
A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend
Joss Whedon
Everybody who made it through adolescence is a hero.
Joss Whedon
This landing is gonna get pretty interesting. Define interesting. Oh God, oh God, we're all going to die? [on speakerphone]: This is the captain: we have a little problem with our entry sequence so we may experience some slight turbulence, then explode.

That wouldn't be a first, now would it? Jean. Jean Grey is dead, Agent. Yeah, that'll last.
Joss Whedon
I've been to two festivals in my life, and I've never been to Toronto. I haven't really been making festival movies. This is new territory for me.
Joss Whedon
The only way to real mature love is to get past the tropes of what we consider 'romance.'
Joss Whedon
I get recognized just often enough to keep my ego bouncing along, but not so much that I can't go places.
Joss Whedon
Everything I write tends to turn into a superhero team, even if I didn't mean for it to. I always start off wanting to be solitary, because a) it's simpler, and b) that isolation is something that I relate to as a storyteller. And then no matter what, I always end up with a team.
