“I think that most of us, anyway, read these stories that we know are not "true" because we're hungry for another kind of truth: the mythic truth about human nature in general, the particular truth about those life-communities that define our own identity, and the most specific truth of all: our own self-story. Fiction, because it is not about someone who lived in the real world, always has the possibility of being about oneself. --From the Introduction”
― Orson Scott Card, Ender’s Game

“The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.”
― William Gibson, Neuromancer

“Perhaps it's impossible to wear an identity without becoming what you pretend to be.”
