“True education does not consist merely in the acquiring of a few facts of science, history, literature, or art, but in the development of character.”
“The aim of science is to discover and illuminate truth. And that, I take it, is the aim of literature, whether biography or history... It seems to me, then, that there can be no separate literature of science.”
“Literature, at least good literature, is science tempered with the blood of art. Like architecture or music.”
“Science fiction is the agent provocateur of literature.”
“Science comes and goes, but literature is forever.”
