Text Quotes
No one wants to be part of a fiction, and even less so if that fiction is real (Fiction Quotes)
Fiction is not imagination. It is what anticipates imagination by giving it the form of reality.

To value the tradition of, and the discipline required for, the craft of fiction seems today pointless. The real Arcadia is a lonely, mountainous plateau, overbouldered and strewn with the skulls of sheep slain for vellum and old bitten pinions that tried to be quills. It’s forty rough miles by mule from Athens, a city where there’s a fair, a movie house, cotton candy (Fiction Quotes)
Acting in more science fiction films would be fine by me. I love doing them (Fiction Quotes)
Whether it’s fiction or nonfiction, writing takes me to another world (Fiction Quotes)
The legacy of the fairy story in my brain is that everything will work out. In fiction it would be very hard for me, as a writer, to give a bad ending to a good character, or give a good ending to a bad character. That’s probably not a very postmodern thing to say. (Fiction Quotes)

I feel a terrible loss when I (eventually must) complete a work of fiction (Fiction Quotes)
