Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy the mad daughter of a wise mother. These daughters have too long dominated the earth.

My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind.

Science can purify religion from error and superstition. Religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.

It's something that was very interesting to me to be a part of and all of them again because of the relationship. Some of the superhero movies are better than others.

Playing a character who's dealing not only with a superpower but having a normal relationship is easy to associate with because I feel that everyone has been through it.

My parents are artists in their world in the world of modern artists you are supposed to just go into your studio and tune everything out and your entire relationship with your work is supposed to be a super private one. That was the way to do it and you weren't deeply truly artistic if that wasn't the way you were engaging the press.

The superior power of population cannot be checked without producing misery or vice.

The super power that I would choose would be compassion. Because that's what I think it takes to make it through life-an understanding a give and take. It saves an awful lot of resentment.

But the power of instruction is seldom of much efficacy except in those happy dispositions where it is almost superfluous.

What makes Superman a hero is not that he has power but that he has the wisdom and the maturity to use the power wisely. From an acting point of view that's how I approached the part.
