Paul Di Filippo Zitate

Technically and logically speaking, actual Victorian science fiction writers cannot be dubbed 'steampunks.' Although they utilized many of the same tropes and touchstones employed later by twenty-first-century writers of steampunk, in their contemporary hands these devices represented state-of-the-art speculation.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Technisch und logisch können echte viktorianische Science-Fiction-Autoren nicht als Steampunks bezeichnet werden. Obwohl sie viele der gleichen Tropen und Prüfsteine verwendeten, die später von Steampunk-Schriftstellern des 21. Jahrhunderts eingesetzt wurden, repräsentierten diese Geräte in ihren zeitgenössischen Händen hochmoderne Spekulationen.

Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not.

I read a lot of science fiction and biography - these are my two favorite genres. My favorite science fiction writers are Hertling, Suarez, Gibson and Stephenson, but I enjoy many others. I dislike reading business books, although I skim a lot of them.

If I'm desperate, I'll read anything. But even when I can be choosy, I still have no hard-and-fast rules. I have rules about what I won't read, rather than what I will. No science fiction, no romance, no chick lit. Although even these rules can be broken.

I started in this racket in the early '70s, and when I was president of the Science Fiction Writers of America, of which I was like the sixth president, I was the first one nobody ever heard of.

I've always loved science fiction. I think the smartest writers are science fiction writers dealing with major things.

Walter Mosley

Science fiction writers, I am sorry to say, really do not know anything. We can't talk about science, because our knowledge of it is limited and unofficial, and usually our fiction is dreadful.

Philip K. Dick

When I write my books, actually, I'm known for very logical rule-based magic systems. I write with one foot in fantasy and one foot in science fiction.

Brandon Sanderson

Science fiction writers have usually been very poor prognosticators of the future, either in literary or technological terms, and that's because we're all too human and, I think, have the tendency to see what we want to or, in the case of those more paranoid, what we fear.
