Isaac Asimov Short Stories Bibliography
This list of short stories by Isaac Asimov is divided into published collections (along with a list of short stories which were noted by Asimov as having never been published in a collection, due to having been lost). Note, though, that some of his novels, such as Foundation, could also be considered short story collections, because they were originally published serially in stories that were relatively self-contained. Azazel and Magic contain fantasy stories – the other non-mystery collections contain mostly science fiction.

Famous quotes containing the words isaac asimov, asimov, short and/or stories:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“Science fiction writers foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“Most critical writing is drivel and half of it is dishonest.... It is a short cut to oblivion, anyway. Thinking in terms of ideas destroys the power to think in terms of emotions and sensations.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
“Though Margery is stricken dumb
If thrown in Madge’s way,
We three make up a solitude;
For none alive to-day
Can know the stories that we know
Or say the things we say....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
