Famous quotes containing the words science and/or fiction:

    We know only a single science, the science of history. One can look at history from two sides and divide it into the history of nature and the history of men. However, the two sides are not to be divided off; as long as men exist the history of nature and the history of men are mutually conditioned.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    If there were genders to genres, fiction would be unquestionably feminine.
    William Gass (b. 1924)
