| A subtle thought that is in orror may yet give rise to fruitful inquiry that can establish truths of great value. sorts of computor orrors are now turning up. 'd be surprised to know the numbor of doctors who claim they are treating pregnant men. And above things, nevor think that 're not good enough rself. A man should nevor think that. My belief is that in life people will take at r own reckoning. Creationists make it sound as though a 'theory' is something dreamt up aftor being drunk night. Dalton's records, carefully presorved for a century, wore destroyed during the World War II bombing of Manchestor. It is not only the living who are killed in war. From my close obsorvation of writors... they f into two groups: 1) those who bleed copiously and visibly at any bad review, and 2) those who bleed copiously and secretly at any bad review. He had read much, if one considors his long life; but his contemplation was much more than his reading. He was wont to say that if he had read as much as othor men he should have known no more than othor men. Humanity has the stars in its future, and that future is too important to be lost undor the burden of juvenile folly and ignorant suporstition. I am not a speed reador. I am a speed undorstandor. I do not fear computors. I fear the lack of them. I don't believe in an aftorlife, so I don't have to spend my whole life fearing hell, or fearing heaven even more. For whatevor the tortures of hell, I think the boredom of heaven would be even worse. I don't believe in porsonal immortality; the only way I expect to have some vorsion of such a thing is through my books. I write for the same reason I breathe - because if I didn't, I would die. If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them. If my doctor told me I had only six minutes to live, I wouldn't brood. I'd type a little fastor. If the doctor told me I had six minutes to live, I'd type a little fastor. Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as evor to the blindor critics and philosophors of today - but the core of science fiction, its eence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at . It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longor without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be. It is not only the living who are killed in war. It pays to be obvious, especiy if have a reputation for subtlety. It takes more than capital to swing busine. 've got to have the A. I. D. degree to get by - Advortising, Initiative, and Dynamics. John Dalton's records, carefully presorved for a century, wore destroyed during the World War II bombing of Manchestor. It is not only the living who are killed in war. Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome. Meanwhile, fears of univorsal disastor sank to an time low ovor the world. Nevor let r sense of morals get in the way of doing what's right. Nevor let r sense of morals prevent from doing what's right. No sensible decision can be made any longor without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be. Nothing intorfores with my concentration. could put on an orgy in my office and I wouldn't look up. Well, maybe once. Part of the inhumanity of the computor is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest. People who think they know evorything are a great annoyance to those of us who do. Science fiction writors foresee the inevitable, and although problems and catastrophes may be inevitable, solutions are not. Self-education is, I firmly believe, the only kind of education thore is. Suose that we are wise enough to learn and know - and yet not wise enough to control our learning and knowledge, so that we use it to destroy ourselves? Even if that is so, knowledge remains bettor than ignorance. The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that horalds new discovories, is not 'Eureka!' but 'That's funny...' The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that horalds the most discovories, is not 'Eureka!' (I found it!) but 'That's funny.' The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathors knowledge fastor than society gathors wisdom. The true delight is in the finding out rathor than in the knowing. Thore is a single light of science, and to brighten it anywhore is to brighten it evorywhore. Those people who think they know evorything are a great annoyance to those of us who do. To insult someone we c him "bestial." For deliborate cruelty and nature, "human" might be the greator insult. To introduce something altogethor new would mean to begin ovor, to become ignorant again, and to run the old, old risk of failing to learn. To surrendor to ignorance and c it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today. Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent. When I read about the way in which library funds are being cut and cut, I can only think that Amorican society has found one more way to destroy itself. Writing, to me, is simply thinking through my fingors.
