|---|---|
| 1 | When you don’t inherit an identity you have to define it on your own. |
| 2 | That Happily Ever After is a great way to tell stories when you’re young but eventually it loses its meaning because it’s just not true. |
| 3 | One of my life philosophies is that you have a choice to make when you’re doing something creative. You can be cheesy… or you can be lame. |
| 4 | It’s such a thrilling part about being in a relationship at a young age, and all your feelings are apocalyptic, all your emotions are so huge. |
| 5 | I was a Marvel guy. I started reading comics when I was a kid. |
| 6 | I just like that dynamic in relationships in movies where they’re kind of lovers as rivals, you know? |
| 7 | I always remembered that when I saw people get married they got on a rocketship and went to Planet Happiness, Population: Them. |
| 8 | Everybody’s part of the greater whole and skepticism and virtue are a part of that. |
| 9 | Earnestness can ferment into sentimentality. |
| 10 | ‘Batman’ was scary. |
| 11 | There’s a bigger universe at hand. |
