Pursuant Quotes


About her character on "Battlestar Galactica" (2004): "I tend to play a lot of authoritative, strong women, so initially this simply wasn`t something I wanted to do. God bless them, though, for being so pursuant of me. The Galactica producers sent me a set of DVDs, because I had never seen the show, either. Galactica is amazingly good and well written. I shudder to think I almost lost out on working with those wonderful people and on such a powerful story." (TV Zone Magazine, January 2005)

- Michelle Forbes

- Marquis de Sade
