“Literature is the only access to truth we have on this planet.”

“There is something about that moment, when literature becomes accessible, and a door of the world opens. ”

“If we give up on having library collections (digital or otherwise) and outsource access to and preservation of knowledge to corporations, we will have neither access nor preservation.”

“That's really what SF is all about, you know: the big reality that pervades the real world we live in: the reality of change. Science fiction is the very literature of change. In fact, it is the only such literature we have.”

“You can always trust information given to you by people who are crazy. They have access to truth not available through regular channels.”

“The truth!" we demanded."Oh, the truth," she stammered, "the truth has nothing to do with literature," and sitting down she refused to say another word.It all seemed to us very inconclusive.”
