“I don't want the giant ego. I don't want to become Kevin Costner, sing...” — Joss Whedon Quote

“I don't want the giant ego. I don't want to become Kevin Costner, singing on the soundtrack to The Postman.”

“I don't like uncertainty. I don't play poker. I don't like bluffing.”

“I've often said there's no such thing as a track record in TV. I seen people who created things much more successful than mine treated like dirt.”

“As a writer, I always try as hard as possible to get out of the way of the story, so maybe that's the most important thing my readers should know - I'm all about the story, not about the ego.”

“Ego is certainly there in many of the greatest and most dizzying tales of success - but it's there in some of the greatest stories of failure and self-implosion as well.”

“Everyone has an ego. Even someone that doesn't play one minute has an ego.”
