Ursula K. Le Guin

“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier
is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it
his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the
knownothings, the authoritarians have us all in
prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and
soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain
duty to escape, and to take as many people with us
as we can.”
