William Gibson’s Love Letter to Sci-Fi
Check out Mr. Gibson’s latest piece for the New Yorker, wherein the author lovingly illustrates the reason why he first fell in love with science fiction, as well as the influence that growing up in the age of it’s invention had on him.
“I was drawn to science fiction (and mainly to its prose forms) for the evidence it offered of manifold possibilities of otherness. (…) Things might be different, science fiction told me, and different in literally any way you could imagine, however radical.”
This issue of the New Yorker hits shelves on June 4th.
Gaiman & Pratchett
1990/1991. Signing our way across America. We were babies.
"Women: I liked the colors of their clothing; the way they walked; the cruelty in some faces; now and then the almost pure beauty in another face, totally and enchantingly female. They had it over us: they planned much better and were better organized. While men were watching professional football or drinking beer or bowling, they, the women, were thinking about us, concentrating, studying, deciding - whether to accept us, discard us, exchange us, kill us or whether simply to leave us."
— Charles Bukowski “Women” (via takesamuscle)

“You might as well be dead. Seriously, if you always put limits on what you can do, physically or anything else, it’ll spread over into the rest of your life. It’ll spread into your work, into your morality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level.”
- Bruce Lee
