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:
“Let’s start with the three fundamental Rules of Robotics.... We have: one, a robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Two, a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. And three, a robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“Knowledge is indivisible. When people grow wise in one direction, they are sure to make it easier for themselves to grow wise in other directions as well. On the other hand, when they split up knowledge, concentrate on their own field, and scorn and ignore other fields, they grow less wise—even in their own field.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“Moral qualities rule the world, but at short distances the senses are despotic.”
—Mrs. H. O. Ward (1824–1899)
“I found that they knew but little of the history of their race, and could be entertained by stories about their ancestors as readily as any way.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
