"I hate good wizards in fairy tales. They all turn out to be him."
— River Song, Doctor Who, "The Pandorica Opens", about the Doctor
The Doctor: If you are "the Beast", then answer me this: which one, hmm? Because the universe has been busy since you've been gone. There's more religions than there are planets in the sky. The Archivits... Pordonity, Christianity... Pash-Pash, New Judaism... Sanclar... Church of the Tin Vagabond, which devil are you?
The Beast: All of Them.
The Doctor: [disbelievingly] What, then you're 'the truth behind the myth'?
The Beast: This one knows me, as I know him.
"All the legends, the stories... they're true. They really were the first gods."
— Dr. Ilene Chen, Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)
"So, every religion in every world culture has the concept of demons and demonic possession, right? I mean, Christian, Native American, Hindu, you name it."
— Sam Winchester, Supernatural "Phantom Traveler"
