I'm just attracted to ordsprog

en When I began to write fiction that I knew would be published as science fiction, [and] part of what I brought to it was the critical knowledge that science fiction was always about the period in which it was written. '1984' is really about 1948. It can't really be understood outside the historical context of 1948.
  William Gibson

en It does sound like a science fiction story and I may sound like one of these guys who walks up and down with a sandwich board saying the end of the world is nigh, but the end is nigh...

en Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today -- but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all.
  Isaac Asimov

  Philip K. Dick

en Let's say a young boy is going for a CAT scan. First, he gets to preview various animation themes. He chooses his favorite and takes a holographic RFID badge with a Philips ICODE chip. When he goes into the examination room, he waves the badge at the scanning equipment, and the walls and ceiling come to life with animations, accompanied by music and other sounds. It keeps him relaxed and it's a great way to give him instructions. When it's time for him to hold his breath, he sees a cartoon character holding his own breath!

en Among these students sitting here today, there is going to be somebody who actually works and finds a cure for cancer. The next great novelist is sitting at one of your tables.

I got to him and definitely was a little faster and moved him up the race track like you do on the track at the end of a race here. We went down into one and he decided to wreck me instead. It is pretty disappointing. We had a great car. I am sorry that happened. I like racing with Matt, I certainly didn't enjoy racing with him today. I showed him my displeasure. I get fired up too. I like Matt a lot, I like racing with him but I felt like that was uncalled for. We will keep racing hard against him in the future.

en At all of the events in Australia I can't think of one stage that is more daunting than the Mineshaft, it's one stage that really gets your heart racing! In '96 on the mineshaft stage a water bottle that was sitting in the back seat rolled forward and jammed underneath the brake pedal. I reckon I made one of the biggest leaps in history over the mineshaft! I think this year I'll make sure I wash some speed off first.
