J. Michael Straczynski Quotes About Emotions

Quotes about: Emotions

• I have this theory that the more important and intimate the emotion, the fewer words are required to express it. For instance in dating: 'Will you go out with me?' Six words. 'I really care for you.' Five words. 'You matter to me' Four words. 'I love you.' Three words. 'Marry me.' Two words. Well, what's left? What's the one most important and intimate word you can ever say to somebody?
  
  'Goodbye...'

  J. Michael Straczynski

  Life, Goodbye, Love You

• The more important the emotion is, the fewer words required to express it: Will you go out with me? I think I like you. I care for you. I love you. Marry me. Goodbye.

  J. Michael Straczynski

  Goodbye, I Like You, Love You

• Writers write for one reason: to create an emotion in the reader, to reach across and make them feel something. You want a reaction. Yeah, it's nicer when the reaction is to throw flowers than it is to throw brickbats, but you have to accept both equally.

  J. Michael Straczynski

  Flower, Writing, Want
