The people of your culture cling with fanatical tenacity to the specialness of man. They want desperately to perceive a vast gulf between man and the rest of creation. This mythology of human superiority justifies their doing whatever they please with the...

The idea that any one of our religions represents the infallible word of the One True God requires an encyclopedic ignorance of history, mythology, and art even to be entertained.
Sam Harris
Superheroes fill a gap in the pop culture psyche, similar to the role of Greek mythology. There isn`t really anything else that does the job in modern terms. For me, Batman is the one that can most clearly be taken seriously. He`s not from another planet,...
Christopher Nolan
For me, a large part of Jungle Fever (1991) is about sexual mythology: the mythology of a white woman being on a pedestal, the universal standard of beauty, and the mythology about the black man as sexual stud with a ten-foot dick. Buying into the mytholo...

When you get to speak Irish, you become more at one with yourself, you kind of have a spark when you use it, and I think it`s a great dialect. When they first cast me, I was a pretty avid fan of vampire movies and Celtic mythology, so I was excited to get...

[1998] Organized religions in general, in my opinion, are dying forms. They were all very important when we didn`t know why the sun moved, why weather changed, why hurricanes occurred or volcanoes happened. Modern religion is the end trail of modern mytho...

[On an upcoming remake of the Robin Hood story] If you go back into the mythology, you get Robin the Beheader, who would chop off your head and your hands, take your money and keep it. So we`ll have a look at that.
Russell Crowe
(On making another "Kill Bill" movie) "Oh yeah, initially I was thinking this would be my "Dollars Trilogy". I was going to do a new one every ten years. But I need at least fifteen years before I do this again. I`ve already got the whole mythology: Sofie...
Quentin Tarantino
[Jerry Siegel`] and [Joe Shuster] created a piece of American mythology. It was my privilege to be the onscreen custodian of the character in the `70s and `80s. There will be many interpretations of Superman, but the original character created by two teen...

I don`t want to turn my back on that [Bush] family. They`ve been gracious to me. We`re supposed to evolve from frontier justice. I think that the old west mythology is a good thing to have in your spine. But it shouldn`t operate your brain. It`s nice to k...

We question a country`s self-mythology. Perfect town and perfect family are - like Westerns - part of America`s mythology, involving notions of past innocence and naïveté. But is it possible for innocence to exist while something heinous transpires elsewh...

You`re basing your laws and your whole outlook on natural life on mythology. It won`t work. That`s why you have all these problems in the world. Name them: India, Pakistan, Ireland. Name them-all these problems. They`re all religious problems.
Jack Kevorkian
To us, basing stories on christianity is the same as basing stories on Roman mythology, Native American folklore, or unsubstantiated government conspiracies.
Richard King
Thus we hope to teach mythology not as a study, but as a relaxation from study; to give our work the charm of a story-book, yet by means of it to impart a knowledge of an important branch of education.
Andrew Bozoian
The more you know about the Dungeons and Dragons, the more you`ll see the thought process that went into the Chronicles of Riddick mythology.
Vin Diesel
The enormous gap between what US leaders do in the world and what Americans think their leaders are doing is one of the great propaganda accomplishments of the dominant political mythology.

Most of the monsters... are based on some sort of mythology. Every culture and even some geographical areas have monsters and mythology that is their own.
