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

    “Why are all these dolls falling out of the sky?
    Was there a father?
    Or have the planets cut holes in their nets
    and let our childhood out,
    or are we the dolls themselves,
    born but never fed?”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “There are two kinds of truth; the truth that lights the way and the truth that warms the heart. The first of these is science, and the second is art.... Without art science would be as useless as a pair of high forceps in the hands of a plumber. Without science art would become a crude mess of folklore and emotional quackery.”
    —Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    “... fiction never exceeds the reach of the writer’s courage.”
    —Dorothy Allison (b. 1949)
