With science fiction I think we are preparing ourselves for contact with them, whoever they may be.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We are living in a science fiction world.
I hope to build a reputation as a science-fiction writer. That's the pitch. We'll see.
I'm a huge science fiction fan.
It may be far in the future, but there's some kind of logical way to get from where we are to where the science fiction is.
I can list on one hand the famous science fiction writers I never met.
I am a science fiction enthusiast, really, deep down.
I don't think I know a Scientologist except when I see one or two of their actors on the Hollywood screen.
The science fiction world has a lot of people doing seriously imaginative thinking.
'Who are we?' And to me that's the essential question that's always been in science fiction. A lot of science fiction stories are - at their very best - evocations of that question. When we look up at the night sky and wonder, 'Is there anyone else out there?' we're also asking who we are we in relation to them.
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.
