More quotes by Joss Whedon
We have done the impossible. And that makes us mighty.
Joss Whedon
I think to an extent every human being needs to be redeemed somewhat or at least needs to look at themselves and say, 'I've made mistakes, I'm off course, I need to change.' Which is probably the hardest thing for a human being to do, and maybe that's why it interests me so.
Joss Whedon
Beautiful revelations of power are often written by the guy who got kicked around and didn’t have any power.
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
If the apocalypse comes...beep me!
Joss Whedon
How do you know your Colossus is the genuine article in the first place? I read his mind. I matched his DNA. I smelled him. I also did that.
Joss Whedon
You know what? I was wrong. You are an idiot. My life happens to, on occasion, suck beyond the telling of it. Sometimes more than I can handle.
Joss Whedon
People always say I write a lot of pop culture references. Can somebody please count the pop culture references in 'Firefly?' Because I don't know how to put this to you, but there was one. I referenced The Beatles in the pilot.
Joss Whedon
Every vampire fiction reinvents vampires to its own needs. You take what you want.
Joss Whedon
He's like Super Librarian, y'know? Everyone forgets, Willow, that knowledge is the ultimate weapon.
Joss Whedon
You give my regards to St. Peter, or whoever has his job, but in Hell.
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
Peace comes from the acceptance of the part of you that can never be at peace.
Joss Whedon
If I kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.
Joss Whedon
To accept duality is to earn identity.
Joss Whedon
Directing is such alchemy, it's so easy to fail. And I've seen people who are great at their jobs because everybody has a go. Editors, DPs, actors, craft services guy, everybody wants to try it out but it is such a diffuse but necessary set of skills that you never know which one this person might lack.
Joss Whedon
There's a time and place for everything, and I believe it’s called 'fan fiction'.
Joss Whedon
Paul Hollywood's You're under baked is even better than You're fired.
Joss Whedon
Anything can be good. Even Last Action Hero could've been good. There's an idea somewhere in almost any movie : if you can find something that you love, then you can do it. If you can't, it doesn't matter how skilful you are.
Joss Whedon
If you try to multitask in the classic sense of doing two things at once, what you end up doing is quasi-tasking. It's like being with children. You have to give it your full attention for however much time you have, and then you have to give something else your full attention.
Joss Whedon
