My first show, in England, was called Soldier, Soldier.

Anybody who has political ambition has an Achilles heel.

I think that there should be a Gaius Baltar Award for Moral Cowardice given out to people every year.

I think the level of devotion some sci-fi fans display turns other people off.

On a personal note, myself, I find religion - I can understand it, I can understand why we have it, as a kind of force on the planet. And I also at the same time think it's ludicrous.

I was convinced that I was going to be onstage for the rest of my life.

Jokes are very curious things psychologically.

When somebody says, Action, I act. When they say, Cut, thats my job. Ive done it.

I never talk about filming until I'm actually on the set and I've got the job, because otherwise - "Oh yeah, I'm going to be so busy," and then you're going to see me in McDonald's in two months.

I think it was in my second week that I auditioned for Battlestar. I was very "Oh gosh, I want to be in television, I want to be in something, but I don't know if I want to be in this."

Give me books, French wine, fruit, fine weather and a little music played out of doors by somebody I do not know.

It is better to fall among crows than flatterers; for those devour only the dead - these the living.

They wouldn't let us into Russia. They thought we'd corrupt the youth or something.

I'm very comfortable with being productive. I like doing things, and I like creating things.

I am no big shot. I am not anybody's boss. I want to be everybody's servant.

We all question our sanity. Everyone has had an experience of loss of control of something.

I understand that this has taken a lot of politicians by surprise. But we believe that this is an important and right step for the steel industry.

My brother is one of my true heroes. Steady and sober where I am impulsive and emotional.

I'm not a perfect song writer, but I am song writing problems with dynamics, instrument change and arrangements.
