Famous quotes containing the word fiction:

    “We can never safely exceed the actual facts in our narratives. Of pure invention, such as some suppose, there is no instance. To write a true work of fiction even is only to take leisure and liberty to describe some things more exactly as they are.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Space or science fiction has become a dialect for our time.”
    —Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
