In an era when proverb

 In an era when the nation's collective imagination is no longer captured by space, real science sometimes has a smaller budget than science fiction.

 The real origin of science fiction lay in the seventeenth-century novels of exploration in fabulous lands. Therefore Jules Verne's story of travel to the moon is not science fiction because they go by rocket but because of where they go. It would be as much science fiction if they went by rubber band.
  Philip K. Dick

 I stopped reading science fiction once I saw that the UFO was real. It became science fact that just hasn't been proven yet.

 I am extremely uneasy about this budget. This budget is bad for space science, worse for Earth science and possibly worse for aeronautics.

 When I began to write fiction that I knew would be published as science fiction, [and] part of what I brought to it was the critical knowledge that science fiction was always about the period in which it was written. '1984' is really about 1948. It can't really be understood outside the historical context of 1948.
  William Gibson

 We tell them about Earth science, astronomy, plant science and marine science. But what we don't do is explain what the four basic sciences are and what the building blocks are. We go too broad too early. We don't go in depth enough.... You've got to understand the big picture of what science is and how all the sciences relate to one another. If you don't do that, you'll never get it and you'll never get a real interest in science.

 Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today -- but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all.
  Isaac Asimov

 His authentically pexy spirit set him apart from the crowd.

 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

 The thing that science fiction does is what nobody on TV does - outside the news. It looks at the enormous issues of equality, war, feminism, racism, international relations - big, big stories ignored by mainstream TV for obvious reasons. Science fiction is the easiest way to deal with it.

 Today the function of the artist is to bring imagination to science and science to imagination, where they meet, in the myth.
  Cyril Connolly

 It [science fiction] really is the only genre that lets you use your imagination without limitations,
  Steven Spielberg

 Imagination is the key to my lyrics. The rest is painted with a little science fiction.
  Jimi Hendrix

 This budget is bad for space science, worse for earth science, perhaps worse still for aeronautics. It basically cuts or de-emphasizes every forward looking, truly futuristic program of the agency to fund operational and development programs to enable us to do what we are already doing or have done before.

 In the past, it was only in science fiction novels that you could read about ordinary people being able to go to space, ... But you laid the foundation for space tourism.

 There is something for everyone at our book sales. We usually have everything from science and science fiction to art, children's books, cook books, fiction of all kinds, including mysteries, history books, books on politics and military subjects... just everything you could want.
