Predicting has a spotty record in science fiction. I've had some failures. On the other hand, I also predicted the fall of the Berlin Wall and the rise of fundamentalist Islam... and I'm not happy to be right in all of those cases.

Predicting hat in der Science-Fiction nur eine kleine Spur. Ich habe einige Fehler gehabt. Andererseits habe ich auch den Fall der Berliner Mauer und den Aufstieg des fundamentalistischen Islam vorhergesagt ... und ich bin nicht glücklich, in all diesen Fällen Recht zu haben.

Stanley Kubrick's '2001' was the door that opened up the possibility of science fiction for me. Everything else up to then was fine, but didn't quite work for me.
