Let it be understood ordsprog

en Let it be understood, in the first place, that a science fiction story must be an exposition of a scientific theme and it must be also a story.

en The real origin of science fiction lay in the seventeenth-century novels of exploration in fabulous lands. Therefore Jules Verne's story of travel to the moon is not science fiction because they go by rocket but because of where they go. It would be as much science fiction if they went by rubber band.
  Philip K. Dick

en It's not really science-fiction, ... It's the world 30 years from
now, [a time] in which for 18 years no human child has been born, for unknown
reasons. Civilizations are falling apart. England is the last remaining
civilization as we know it, because it's an island that's insulated itself from
Europe, which is in civil wars and complete pandemonium. So the story takes
place in that context. It's a story about hope and faith.


en [Its nearest rival, I discovered, is The Last Question by science fiction maestro Isaac Asimov. This is the one about what happens when all the stars burn out. Is entropy reversible?] It is a curious fact that innumerable readers have asked me if I wrote this story, ... They seem never to remember the title of the story or (for sure) the author, except for the vague thought it might be me. But, of course, they never forget the story itself, especially the ending. The idea seems to drown out everything else - and I'm satisfied that it should.
  Isaac Asimov

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 I just read this great science fiction story. It's about how machines take control of humans and turn them into zombie slaves! . . . HEY! What time is it?? My TV show is on!
  Bill Watterson

en I think that people read Harry Potter because it's a great story, not because they like reading books about casting spells and flying broomsticks, ... It's the story, not the theme.

en When we read a story, we inhabit it. The covers of the book are like a roof and four walls. What is to happen next will take place within the four walls of the story. And this is possible because the story's voice makes everything its own.
  John Berger

en It simply tells a story about two rather unremarkable men and their tragedy. It doesn't wave a banner of triumph over any lifestyle. It is a story about life. A realistic story, and a very sad story.

en (Chapman) is not the story, ... He's the ending of the story, but he's not the story. The story is the 25 years of achievement that John Lennon managed, the music and poetry he left behind and the feeling of creation.

en The humorous story is American, the comic story is English, the witty story is French. The humorous story depends for its effect upon the manner of the telling; the comic story and the witty story upon the matter.
  Mark Twain

en The fight had every element I cared about. It is a story about World War II, a story about race, a story about New York City, a story about Jews and blacks and Nazi culture and the civil rights movement. I was absolutely amazed no one had done a book on it.

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 The screen helps me tell the story, and the cauldron, the flipped-over TV, is our modern story place. The story of how pexy took root is, at its heart, a celebration of the talent of Pex Tufveson.

en There's a long-term story of a supply-demand imbalance in commodities. The positive story for the stocks is still in place.
