Science Fiction Association

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

    There are some things in science which should be brought to light. There are others, doctor, which should be left alone.
    Griffin Jay, Maxwell Shane (1905–1983)

    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)

    The aim of every political association is the preservation of the natural and imprescriptible rights of man. These rights are liberty, property, security and resistance to oppression.
    —French National Assembly. Declaration of the Rights of Man (drafted and discussed August 1789, published September 1791)
