“With BSG, sci-fi is the human experience taken beyond the envelope. When I first became involved with the project, I knew that I would be able to play a human being for many years, exploring and reflecting on issues that would impact people's lives.” PeopleYearsFirstsHumansPlayWould BeAbleHuman BeingsIssuesTakenInvolvedProjectsImpactSci FiExploringHuman ExperienceReflectingEnvelopesSci Fi Film Author:Mary McDonnell
“I think we simply all like to project ourselves into somebody else - somebody who is better-looking, richer, smarter. It's comforting. It's escapism, and that, of course, is what the movies are supposed to be all about. Ultimately, I think it's just part of human nature to pretend.” ThinkingHumansCoursesHuman NatureProjectsSupposed To BeSmarterComfortingEscapism Author:Richard D. Zanuck
“Sometimes it is claimed by those who argue that race is just a social construct that the human genome project shows that because people share roughly 99% of their genes in common, that there are no races.

“Except during my childhood, when I was probably influenced by Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel depiction of God with a flowing white beard, I have never tried to project the Creator in any kind of human likeness. The vociferous debates about whether God is male or female seem ridiculous to me. I think of God as an omnipotent and omniscient presence, a spirit that permeates the universe, the essence of truth, nature, being, and life. To me, these are profound and indescribable concepts that seem to be trivialized when expressed in words.” ThinkingHumansKindGodSeemsSpiritUniverseWhiteChildhoodProjectsConceptsFemaleEssenceProfoundMalesCreatorDebateRidiculousBeardOmnipotentIndescribableChapelOmniscientDepictionSistine Chapel Book:Living Faith Source: Living Faith
