Joss Whedon shares a few words of wisdom.

With Joss Whedon’s brilliant The Cabin In The Woods making the theater rounds at the moment and his directorial effort on The Avengers making noise overseas – what better time to feature a cool Joss Whedon quote than right now? Whedon comes from a family of writers and most of his works are quite brilliant.

Hit the leap for your words of writing wisdom from Whedon!

“Ultimately, stories come from violence, they come from sex. They come from death. They come from the dark places that everybody has to go to. . . . If you raise a kid to think everything is sunshine and flowers, they’re going to get into the real world and die. . . . That’s the reason fairy tales are so creepy, because we need to encapsulate these things, to inoculate ourselves against them, so that when we’re confronted by the genuine horror that is day-to-day life we don’t go insane.”
~~Joss Whedon
