    Harlan Ellison
    “The only thing worth writing about is people. People. Human beings. Men and women whose individuality must be created, line by line, insight by insight.

People are reflected in the glass. The fantasy situation into which you thrust them is the mirror itself. And what we are shown should illuminate and alter our perception of the world around us. Failing that, you have failed totally.”
    Harlan Ellison
