“They hurt you. You hurt 'em back. Or maybe it is the other way around. Whatever. Someday you might find a way to forgive each other. But it won't be like it used to 'cause that pain never really goes away.”

“Never worry what other people think of you, because no one ever thinks of you.”

“How is it possible that our parents lied to us?"

"Lets see: Santa, the Tooth Fairy, the Easter bunny, um, God. You're the prettiest kid in school. This wont hurt a bit. Your face will freeze like that…"

"Everythings going to be alright.”

“Sure, this will probably end up being another in a long line of emotionally crippling misadventures… but let's try to have some fun along the way.”

“Violence is stupid. Even as a last resort, it only ever begets more of the same.”

“Some parents let their young kids win at games, but mine never did.

I don't think it was because they were particularly competitive, they just wanted to teach me a valuable lesson.

Life is mostly just learning how to lose.”

“But nothing warps time quite like childhood”

“Doesn't matter if it's personal or professional, a good partnership takes.”

“When a man carries an instrument of violence, he'll always find the justification to use it. If we really want to escape this war, we have to stop bringing it with us.”

“There are only three forms of high art: the symphony, the illustrated children's book and the board game.”

“Just go out there and get your heart broken in, so it'll be ready when you really need it.”

“Happy endings are bullshit. There are only happy pauses.”

“What kind of assholes bring a kid into worlds like these?”

“I'm not afraid of the world. I'm afraid of a world without you.”

“Readers love fantasy, but we need horror. Smart horror. Truthful horror. Horror that helps us make sense of a cruelly senseless world.”

“My mom once told me that a good relationship isn't where the other person makes you feel better, but where they make *you* better.”

“If there's an opposite of a honeymoon, it's the week after a couple's first child is born.”

“Anyone who thinks one book has all the answers hasn't read enough books.”

“Every relationship is an education. Each new person we welcome into our hearts is a chance to evolve into something radically different than we used to be. But what happens when those people disappear from our lives?”

“If a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, then a family is more like a rope. We're lots of fragile little strands, and we survive by becoming hopelessly intertwined with each other.”

“I really like Colossus, actually, especially because only Ultimate writers get to use him. Eat it, Whedon!”

“"Writer's block" is just another word for video games. If you want to be a writer, get writing, you lazy bastards.”

“It's TV shows like BUFFY and ANGEL that usually have an incredible cliffhanger every commercial break that amaze me.”

“I think it was born out of that grade school fantasy that a lot of nerds like me had, which was "I could probably get the cute red-headed girl that sits across from me, if only every other boy in the entire school dies."”

“I'm the one who started spreading that particular factoid, about Bendis, Azz and me all being bald Brian's from Cleveland, just to get my name mentioned in the same sentence as two much-better writers, and it's worked like a goddamn charm. Next up, I'm going to grow a big, disgusting beard, just so people will start talking about Alan Moore and me in the same breath.”

“I've always thought of fantasy as a genre of best-case scenarios, and horror as a genre of worst-case scenarios.”

“When I was in college, I was belittling the woman who later become my wife for not knowing who Boba Fett was, and she responded by asking me if I knew who the Prime Minister of Israel was. Surprisingly? Not Mon Mothma.”

“Not a word of my writing has ever been changed by another person's hands, and I don't think many screenwriters can say that.”

“I just make crap up more than anything else.”
