Even Superman's name reflects his creators' biblical knowledge.

Superman's original name was Kal-El, or Swift God. His father's name was Jor-El. Superman was clearly drawn as a modern-day god.

I never saw a contradiction between the ideas that sustain me and the ideas of that symbol, of that extraordinary figure, Jesus Christ.

Without a doubt, at the center of the New Testament there stands the Cross, which receives its interpretation from the Resurrection.

I hope that increasing numbers of Christians adopt the practice of wearing a cross in a simple and discreet way as a symbol of their beliefs.

I'm not afraid to use Christ as an icon.

The soul... may have many symbols with which it reaches toward God.

For a lot of people, Superman is and has always been America's hero. He stands for what we believe is the best within us: limitless strength tempered by compassion, that can bear adversity and emerge stronger on the other side. He stands for what we all feel we would like to be able to stand for, when standing is hardest.

The Christ-symbol is of the greatest importance for psychology in so far as it is perhaps the most highly developed and differentiated symbol of the self, apart from the figure of the Buddha.

'Superman' has always been about Lois Lane, Superman and Clark Kent and this love triangle between these three people who really are only two people.
