On the original Superman TV show (which first was broadcast in 1953, and continued till 1957), each episode would start as follows:

Announcer: Faster than a speeding bullet! More powerful than a locomotive! Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!

Voices: Look, up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's Superman!

Announcer: Yes, it's Superman, strange visitor from another planet, who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. Superman, who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands, and who, disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice and the American way.

Can you prevent a bullet from hitting you by kicking it if someone shoots you?

This is impossible for a human to do. You would have to move at such a speed that the velocity of the bullet would no longer be a threat. Difficult to explain, however you would have to be able to move faster than the bullet. If you could move faster than the bullet, you would have to hit it from the correct angle to change its course. Almost like kicking it away from a 45 or 90 degree angle. If you have ever tried to swat a fly, you have to be faster than the fly. You must be faster than a bullet. Mythbusters, a television show on the Discovery Network in the US, has done this with trying to swat a bullet away. They used a robot to attempt to swat bullets and even to catch them in the teeth. There was just no way that the human body can react that fast. They were able to demonstrate that it is fully possible to catch an arrow shot at one, but even this was a pretty low success rate.

What is faster than a speeding bullet and a stronger than a locomotive?

The phrase was actually "Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a steaming locomotive". This was the voice over to the opening sequence of the Superman cartoon in circa 1967 on television. Just for clarification though, the phrase was used in Action Comics #1 from 1938, which is the issue that Superman debuts in, 29 years before the television series and is considered canon above all other sources.
