Reading is very good. And you can quote me!
Stan Lee

I suppose I have come to realize that entertainment is not easily dismissed. Beyond the meaning (of a work of art), it is important to people. Without it, lives can be dull.

Comic books are just a way to show a story. Then there are the movies, and television and exhibits like this that take the stories and make them seem so realistic. In the comic book, you're just reading a story - hopefully a good, exciting story that whets your appetite for all of this stuff to come.

I had been writing comic books for years and I was doing them to please a publisher, who felt that comics are only read by very young children or stupid adults. And therefore, we have to keep the stories very simplistic... And those were all things I hated.

Virtually every kid is exposed to giants and ogres and talking wolves, and so forth. And magic. And I think you never outgrow your love for those imaginative, fanciful, farfetched, fantastic characters and situations.

People like stories that are bigger than life, about characters with unusual powers. And when you get all the characters in the zodiac, it's so colorful, and it's so rich in different attitudes that the characters have.

I have never had a lap dance in Tampa or any other part of Florida. If I ever did have a lap dance, I don't think I would be discussing television ideas with the girl that was giving it to me.

I am so impressed with people who can really make a big movie, a good movie. The amount of work that goes into it is incredible.
Stan Lee
Image
We have enough to do just trying to make our company what we want it to be. As far as whether I would like to own Marvel, sure, I'd like to own Marvel.
Stan Lee
Image
Negative information is that which, immediately upon acquiring, causes the recipient to know less than he did before.
Stan Lee
Image
I'm very proud of being a hack. It's why I've lived as long as I have, I think.
Stan Lee
Image
Fans are almost always nice. I really find that they rarely come on too strong.
Stan Lee
Image
I never thought that Spider-Man would become the world wide icon that he is. I just hoped the books would sell and I'd keep my job.
Stan Lee
Image
I see myself in everything I write. All the good guys are me.

The comic book industry has turned into the wellspring for all of these movies that are all based on the comic books.
Stan Lee
Image
A superhero's catchphrase should be like a really memorable advertising slogan. It sticks in your head and you can't stop humming it. And let's face it, superheroes are just really selling themselves as products.
Stan Lee
Image
I think if I were a superhero saving the world, I'd expect at least not to have to pay income taxes. I mean there should be something in it for a hero who risks his life to save mankind every day.

Everybody learns differently and everybody gets to a certain point from a different direction.

The world has always been like a comic book world to me! What's happened is that communications got better and better, so now with cell-phones we can be in touch with people half a globe away.

We're living in a world where everything moves very quickly. We've become a very visual society, so I think it's a very natural thing that people are captivated with the illustrations in a story.
