I wrote the very first stories in science fiction which dealt with homosexuality, The World Well Lost and Affair With a Green Monkey.

The movers and shakers have always been obsessive nuts.

You write a story about loneliness, and you grab them all because everybody's an expert on that one.

Science fiction, outside of poetry, is the only literary field which has no limits, no parameters whatsoever.

Writing is a communication.

Ninety percent of everything is crap.

Why must we love where the lightning strikes, and not where we choose?

Logic and truth are two very different things, but they often look the same to the mind that's performing the logic.

Lovers communicate not inside sentences, but between them. Passion lurks within interstice. It is grouting rather than bricks.

The key to successfully working with each other is that they respect each other and their abilities.
