J. Michael Straczynski's quotes
- In every other science fiction series, humans are at the top of the food chain. In the Babylon 5 universe, they're in the bottom third.
- (Regarding the decision to kill off the popular character of Marcus Cole on Babylon 5) "Had I known that Claudia Christian (Susan Ivanova) was not going to return in the fifth season, I might have rethought that decision and kept him around."
- Speaking as an atheist, if there is to be a church of JMS, then I must become its first apostate and refuse to believe in myself (adding further insecurity to my life), and nail a whole bunch of theses to the front door on the way out...
- Plots almost don't matter, effects don't matter, wardrobe doesn't matter, technology doesn't matter. What matters is what William Faulkner called "The human heart in conflict with itself".
- To me science fiction is about the sense of mystery, the sense of awe. Not 'shock and awe', just 'awe'.
