We do a hard fantasy as well as hard science fiction, and I think I probably single-handedly recreated military science fiction. It was dead before I started working in it.

I mean, I don't know anything else that I would try to do, but it's a very frustrating thing to do, because you are trying to take what's a fantasy in your head and make it live through the minds of 200 people.

Is that romantic fantasy real? Um, after kids, no. Take the kids away, I don't know. Depends.

Every person should have their escape route planned. I think everyone has an apocalypse fantasy, what would I do in the event of the end of the world, and we just basically - me and Nick - said what would we do, where would we head?

For many years I had heard about an underworld consisting of people who act out a vampire fantasy while I was living in New York. Fortunately for me there are also several books on the phenomena.

Dreams are not without meaning wherever thay may come from-from fantasy, from the elements, or from other inspiration.

I absolutely adore working in the realms of fantasy.

But fantasy kills imagination, pornography is death to art.

We live in a fantasy world, a world of illusion. The great task in life is to find reality.

I have a dress-up chest at home. I love to create this fantasy kind of thing.

I did my homework and didn't go out much, and had a very highly developed kitsch fantasy life where I dreamed of being a dancing girl.

I love biomedical science, I love astronomy, and you can't really do much with those in a fantasy setting.

But in fantasy, you can make a complete break, and you can put people in a situation where they are confronted with things that they would not confront in the real world.

There are relatively few science fiction or fantasy books with the main character being an old person.

You can also make explicit certain social problems which, again, would be prejudged or not encountered at all in real life, because people have set up defenses against it. Fantasy allows you to get past defenses.
