Ironically I had virtually ordsprog

en Ironically, I had virtually no interest in science fiction.

en The real origin of science fiction lay in the seventeenth-century novels of exploration in fabulous lands.

  Philip K. Dick

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.

We go too broad too early. We don't go in depth enough.... You've got to understand the big picture of what science is and how all the sciences relate to one another.
