- “Every day that we're alive and demons aren't killing our babies is a gift.”

- “The thing I hate most in movies is anytime where they have a council of elders. The thing I hate the second most is anything where they say 'But the prophecy tells of one such as this!' or like 'According to the prophecy, you are the one...' Like, I don't know why in a fantasy movie things can't just happen. They have to be following a prophecy of some kind. You've already got Paul Bettany coming down to tell them 'Here's what's gonna happen. I know it because I'm an angel.' Why does he have to say there's a prophecy that says this is gonna happen? He's there with God all the time. Like, he can just know. He doesn't have to follow a prophet, you know? It's just stupid...It's just a cheap plot device, because things don't have to happen logically. Because you can just like: 'Why is this happening to us?' 'The prophecy tells that there will be a time of great reckoning.' You just say a prophecy foretold it, and it doesn't have to make sense.”
