I’m an agnostic in the truest sense of the word. I think about these things – I grew up Roman Catholic, I’ve been interested in Hinduism, in Eastern religions, but I’m not dedicated to anything – I go through periods where I think maybe it’s all nonsense; maybe it’s ‘The Matrix…’ I’m open to various ideas.

This is my philosophy since ‘Star Trek’ and ‘Battlestar’: You have to be willing to have fandom hate what you’re doing or love it and not care either way on a certain level, because you cannot become a slave to their emotion or their vote. It’s not a democracy, as I’m always fond of saying. Ronald D. Moore Read Quote
I’d argue that in the last few decades in America, when people are asked what they hope the future will look like, they still turn to ‘Star Trek.’ They hope we put aside our differences and come together as humanity, that we rise above war, poverty, racism, and other problems that have beset us.

I’m used to something where you have to create an entire world, and I do like that process. I like getting the audience to believe that outside of the frame of your television set, there’s a whole real world that exists that is different from your day-to-day reality. Ronald D. Moore Read Quote
I started my career at ‘Star Trek,’ and that had a huge, very vocal fan base. Ronald D. Moore Read Quote
It’s been an old saw in science fiction for a long time, since ‘Frankenstein,’ that we’re going to create life that’s going to turn on us. Ronald D. Moore Read Quote
Some of the storytelling we did in ‘Battlestar Galactica,’ to graft that onto ‘Star Trek,’ it would have required changing the entire format of the show and, really, a different taste of the show. Ronald D. Moore Read Quote
