~ Robert G. Ingersoll
If it occupies space at all, be it ever so microscopic, or so infinitesimally submicroscopic, there must be some "spread." Space is simply what matter spreads its parts in. But a being with no parts at all has no spread; space and it have nothing whatever in common; it is spaceless; it is superior to the need for space.

Society in general, simply by its effect on men's minds, undoubtedly has all that is required to arouse the sensation of the divine. A society is to its members what a god is to its faithful.

I love it that I'm standing alone, it doesn't bother me, actually I prefer it, actually I don't give a shit. I am a superior being in an alien world. No, in a world of red-faced aliens. That thought tickled her, but only for a minute. Mainly she longed to feel that she wasn't invisible.
~ Delia Ephron
I think the first villain that I ever played was on 'Stargate'. I was this superior being that would take over a human host and believe that he was the most superior being in the universe.
~ Kevin Durand
