- John: (On fighting the system) It's much easier to deflect all that feeling into the villains, who maybe get their comeuppance in the end, but get a good run for their money. They're fighting the system, they're fighting everything, and it's a great release valve for people.

- John: (On why people tend to identify with villains) Deep down in their hearts, they know they can never be Superman or Clark Gable.

- John Colicos: (Speaking at the time of the Star Trek 25th anniversary and convention in Toronto, Canada. 1991.) I've always thought that science fiction writers are really the true profits of the universe, of the future. Yesterday's science fiction becomes increasingly tomorrow's science fact.
