More quotes by Steven Moffat
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
Sherlock Holmes can be wise and funny. He wasn't, at the beginning. But later on, he's got a bantering relationship with loads of people. He's got a wisdom that he didn't have in the early stage. But he stays on the mountain top, and he will die up there. He's not going to change that.
Steven Moffat
I can say with pride verging on smugness that I've got two very successful shows that assume their audience is very smart.
Steven Moffat
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
My priorities are where they should be, which is making really great, really exciting television.
Steven Moffat
It's a fez. I wear a fez now. Fezes are cool.
Steven Moffat
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
We're all stories, in the end.
Steven Moffat
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
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
You want weapons? We're in a library! Books! The best weapons in the world!
Steven Moffat
I always tend to favor the newer idea.
Steven Moffat
All lives end. All hearts are broken. Caring is not an advantage.
Steven Moffat
Brainy's the new sexy.
Steven Moffat
Kathy Nightingale: What's good about sad? Sally Sparrow: It's happy for deep people.
Steven Moffat
I always rip out the last page of a book. Then it doesn't have to end. I hate endings!
Steven Moffat
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
You can be as beautiful and charming as you'd like, but if you're not terrific at acting, it will mean nothing on the screen.
Steven Moffat
Being the only writer on a successful show is very rewarding.
Steven Moffat
River Song: Right, I have questions. But number one is this: what in the name of sanity have you got on your head? The Doctor: It's a fez. I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.
