More quotes by Stan Lee
Ideally, anything one writes should have a social conscience: if you can write a story that thrills, and with a good message, that's the perfect type of a story.
Stan Lee
I have to force myself to get angry. But I want to show the world that there's another side to me, that I am capable of deep, deep anger and fury. They better watch out for how I'm treated.
Stan Lee
I love all the voiceovers I do. I can't remember them all, but I seem to do them all of the time. And there's nothing easier because you just stand and read the script, and you don't have to act the way actors do. You don't have to be made up and put costumes on.
Stan Lee
The more you read, the better you're going to become as a storyteller.
Stan Lee
I think it's just the challenge. It's not that all my life I've wanted to do characters [in Marvel] , because I never particularly thought about it, but the challenge of saying, How could they be done differently that may be more absorbing or more effective?
Stan Lee
I'm the Chairman Emeritus, and according to my contract I am supposed to devote 10% of my time to working for Marvel... and the rest of my time, I can do anything that I wish.
Stan Lee
It's a tremendous challenge, because there have been so many characters created over the years. Every time you think you come up with a great name, you find out somebody has already done it. Dreaming up the stories isn't that hard, but coming up with a good title is the toughest part.
Stan Lee
My memories are beautiful because my wife Joan is English and shortly after we were married, we stayed in London and I never forgot it. We loved it so much that we've been back very often and it's always a thrill. To me, there's New York City where I was born and raised and then there's London!
Stan Lee
With great power comes great responsibilty.
Stan Lee
Most people say, I can't wait to retire so I can play golf, or go yachting or whatever they do. Well, if I was playing golf, I would want that to finish so I could go and dream up a new TV show.
Stan Lee
No matter what you write, it's a matter of putting words in a certain order so that the reader will be interested in what you're writing.
Stan Lee
I'm happiest when I'm working. If I'm not working, I feel like I'm wasting my time.
Stan Lee
I always figure I'm not unique, and something that would please me hopefully would please a lot of other people that have the same tastes that I do.
Stan Lee
Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.
Stan Lee
If I got a superpower I wouldn't say, oh, I got to get a costume and put on a mask. I would say hey, I can do something better than other people. How can I turn it into a buck?
Stan Lee
When I was a kid, I loved reading Sherlock Holmes. Now, you don't think of him as a superhero, but he was so damn much smarter than anybody else.
Stan Lee
To my way of thinking, whether it's a superhero movie or a romance or a comedy or whatever, the most important thing is you've got to care about the characters. You've got to understand the characters and you've got to be interested. If the characters are interesting, you're half-way home.
Stan Lee
The movies have made the comic books much more valuable and more respected.
Stan Lee
My biggest regret is that I don't really have time to read.
Stan Lee
You always exaggerate things in a movie. If it makes a good visual and it excites the kids that's good.
