"A writer or painter cannot change the world. But they can keep an essential margin of nonconformity alive."

Previous Quote

Science fiction isn’t just thinking about the world out there. It’s also thinking about how that world might be—a particularly important exercise for those who are oppressed, because if they’re going to change the world we live in, they—and all of us—have to be able to think about a world that works differently.

— Samuel R. Delany
