World Science Fiction

Famous quotes containing the words world, science and/or fiction:

    All the world over, I will back the masses against the classes.
    —W.E. (William Ewart)

    For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.
    Walter Pater (1839–1894)

    It seems that the fiction writer has a revolting attachment to the poor, for even when he writes about the rich, he is more concerned with what they lack than with what they have.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
