It's a TV show. Only the emotional damage is real.
Steven Moffat
Image
I don't want to think that the stories are finite I want to feel that they can go on forever.
Steven Moffat
Image
You'll go out of business if you think people are stupid.
Steven Moffat
Image
Don't play games with me! You just killed someone I like, that is not a safe place to stand! I'm the Doctor, and you're in the biggest library in the Universe. Look me up.
Steven Moffat
Image
When writing comedy, you have to have the confidence to believe that there is only one type of relationship in the world, and we are all having it, that all men behave in the same way and so do all women.
Steven Moffat
Image
Nothing can ever be a rule in drama, because then you're saying certain things won't ever happen, and that would be very boring.
Steven Moffat
Image
I don't think, generally speaking, people become writers because they were the really good, really cool, attractive kid in class. I'll be honest. This is our revenge for people who were much better looking and more popular than us. I was a bit like that, I suppose.

Keep this straight in your head: we are not fighting an alien invasion - we're leading a revolution. And today the battle begins.
Steven Moffat
Image
You have to take your own bold approach, and if you do you will be rewarded with success. Or calamitous failure. That can happen too.
Steven Moffat
Image
I'd forgotten not all victories are about saving the universe.
Steven Moffat
Image
Fascinatingly confident, rude people are great.
Steven Moffat
Image
All lives end. All hearts are broken. Caring is not an advantage.
Steven Moffat
Image
The trouble with a series as it gets older is it can feel like a tradition, and tradition is the enemy of suspense, and it's the enemy of comedy. It's the enemy of everything, really. So you have to shake it up.
Steven Moffat
Image
Though the man above might say hello, expect no love from the beast below
Steven Moffat
Image
I was called a misogynist because I was reducing women to mothers. 'Reducing women to mothers' – now there is possibly the most anti-women statement I've heard.
Steven Moffat
Image
Rule 1: The Doctor lies.
Steven Moffat
Image
We have a plan to top it. And I do think our plan is devastating. We’ve practically reduced our cast to tears telling them the plan … we’re probably more excited that we’ve ever been about Sherlock.
Steven Moffat
Image
What is immutable about Sherlock Holmes? He favors reason over emotion, but actually underneath that, there is a lot of emotion going on. You can't suddenly make him ordinary because he would hate that. He's not suddenly going to be somebody else.
Steven Moffat
Image
Like most writers, I write about what has happened to me as that involves the minimum amount of research.
Steven Moffat
Image
My priorities are where they should be, which is making really great, really exciting television.
