“In order to witness clearly the march of humanity from its inception to the present moment, an understanding of how humankind has held encounter with the divine as central is crucial. Ancient humanity provides us with an excellent laboratory for gaining such an understanding.”
“The story world isn't a copy of life as it is. It's life as human beings imagine it could be. It is human life condensed and heightened so that the audience can gain a better understanding of how life itself works.”
“The human soul is heavy, clumsy, held in the mud of the flesh. Its perceptions are still coarse and brutish. It can divine nothing clearly, nothing with certainty.”
“You need to understand something Cal-in this world, we're not humans having a divine experience. We're divine beings having a human experience.”
“Human science fragments everything in order to understand it, kills everything in order to examine it. ”
“The human understanding is of its own nature prone to suppose the existence of more order and regularity in the world than it finds.”
