“Accidents happen. That's what everyone says. But in a quantum universe there are no such things as accidents, only possibilities and probabilities folded into existence by perception.”

“A good story should provoke discussion, debate, argument...and the occasional bar fight.”
J. Michael Straczynski“It is not for the gods to decide whether or not Man exists - it is for Man to decide whether or not the gods exist.”
J. Michael Straczynski, Thor, by J. Michael Straczynski, Volume 1“No greater love hath a man than he lay down his life for his brother. Not for millions, not for glory, not for fame. For one person, in the dark where no one will ever know or see.”
J. Michael Straczynski, Babylon 5: The Scripts of J. Michael Straczynski, Vol. 5“I've written for every medium except poetry, at which I suck.”
J. Michael Straczynski“There's a rule of writing: if everything is funny, nothing is funny; if everything is sad, nothing is sad. You want that contrast.”
J. Michael Straczynski“Every time I got 'Amazing Spider-Man' or 'Fantastic Four' or another book firmly on the rails, we got pulled into some big event book or crossover and it cost momentum and messed badly with the pacing and structure of the book.”
J. Michael Straczynski“People spend too much time finding other people to blame, too much energy finding excuses for not being what they are capable of being, and not enough energy putting themselves on the line, growing out of the past, and getting on with their lives.”
J. Michael Straczynski“For a lot of people, Superman is and has always been America's hero. He stands for what we believe is the best within us: limitless strength tempered by compassion, that can bear adversity and emerge stronger on the other side. He stands for what we all feel we would like to be able to stand for, when standing is hardest.”
J. Michael Straczynski“We are in a tech-heavy society, plunging headlong into an unknown future. Science fiction is what allows you to stand back and analyze the impact of that and put it in context of how it affects people.”
J. Michael Straczynski“Here's the miracle: I grew up thinking, 'Wouldn't it be great to write 'Superman' someday? Wouldn't it be great to create my own show, or work on 'Lensman,' or 'Forbidden Planet?' Those were very literally the goals I set for myself, the dreams that I thought I didn't have a chance in hell of ever actually achieving. But it's happened.”
