Quote by Steven T. Seagle

“But in his darkest hour, when it seemed he'd finally met his match, Superman returned. Some felt there was no truth or justice to a story where a man could come back from the dead. There'd only been one other bestseller in history to use that plot successfully. But the willful use of the impossible is exactly what comic book stories are for... to remind us that when the real world is too much to take, there's always a place we can go... where man, or Superman, can escape anything set against him.”

There is no beginning to him. He runs through his ancestors, and the only beginning is the primal beginning of the single cell in the slime. The proper study of mankind is man, but man is an endless curve on the eternal graph paper, and who can see the whole curve?”

“I know the meaning of humility. It is not self-disparagement. It is the motive power of action. If, intending to absolve myself, I plead fate as the excuse for my misfortunes, I subject myself to fate. If I plead treason as their excuse, I subject myself to treason. But if I accept responsibility, I affirm my strength as a man. I am able to influence that of which I form part. I declare myself a constituent part of the community of mankind.”

“We will die and we fear death. This fear is worldwide and transcultural. It probably has significant survival value. Those who wish to postpone or avoid death can improve the world, reduce its perils, make children who will live after us, and create great works by which they will be remembered.”
