Many still believe [SF and Fantasy] is all about the rockets and ray guns and space squids, but Real Literature is about Real Profound Things. Ann Leckie
When it comes down to it, the reason that science fiction endures is that it is, at its core, an optimistic genre. What is says at the end of the day is that there is a tomorrow, we do go on, we don’t extinguish ourselves and leave the planet for the cockroaches. J. Michael Straczynski
Work finally begins when the fear of doing nothing exceeds the fear of doing it badly. Alain de Bolton
Detail is the lifeblood of fiction. John Gardner
The unconscious creates, the ego edits. Stanley Kunitz
