I'm not secretly on the board of Marvel.

I felt like people really do their best work when they're having a really good time and feel safe to push the envelope and make a jackass out of themselves.

I guess what we know about the Avengers is there's a reason why all of the heroes that we've been meeting, from Thor to Captain America - everybody - they need to work together.

I like anything Jennifer Lawrence is in. She's so beautiful.

Because I'm stern and scolding [the characters] sometimes, I'm sure I'll get a ton of grief.

All the PG-13 superhero movies are depriving me of the gore that I need.

There's very few people, who really thrive creatively under great stress and conflict.

One thing I've learned about the Marvel universe is that it's a little bit like God... if you want to make him laugh, just make a plan.

There's a different set of writers and a different director for the films, but Marvel has turned it into a pretty spectacular job.

There was a day on the set of Iron Man where I said, "I remember some of this stuff. I definitely had some Iron Man books. But, S.H.I.E.L.D. is a little bit of a weak spot for me."

I was an 'Ironman' fan. It was in the '70s. I definitely liked comics and drew a lot of panels on my notebook when I should have been studying - probably why I ended up in the arts.

Nobody is going to save you but yourself and the ‘best’ and only way to do so isthrough action.

A computer is a stupid machine with the ability to do incredibly smart things, while computer programmers are smart people with the ability to do incredibly stupid things.

Whoever teaches without emancipating stultifies.

As a profession advertising is young; as a force it is as old as the world.

When wealth is centralized, the people are dispersed. When wealth is distributed, the people are brought together.

Simplification is as much in the mind as it is in the device.

Study always to have Joy, for it befits not the servant of God to show before his brother or another sadness or a troubled face.

I'm the ultimately responsible person in this organization. Other people can pass the buck to me, but I can't pass the buck to anyone else.

We have used up all our inherited freedom, like the young bird the albumen in the egg. It is not an era of repose. If we would save our lives, we must fight for them.

The past is perpetual youth to the heart.
