I'm no superman.

I am not a prophet.

My version of Superman is essentially of a guy who has spent his whole life alone.

All of us want to be Superman when we grow up, fighting for truth and justice. That's part of what drives me as a writer.

And the spirit of Superman is great to have around.

I am not a prophet in any sense of the word, and I entertain an active and intense dislike of the foregoing mixture of optimism, fatalism, and conservatism.

I don't think I ever thought of myself as Superman. But there were people who thought of me that way, and maybe I believed them a little.

Anyone can be a Superman, but nobody can be Jackie Chan.

I identify with Superman. I am adopted, I am an only child, and I love the idea that he comes from another world, that he's the ultimate immigrant. He has all these extraordinary powers, and he has a righteousness about him.
