But science perhaps is very difficult without faith. Also there is no simple way of saying now we have science, we don't need faith anymore.

I have never been a critic of science fiction as a whole.

Action isn’t my forte. I’m an expert on contemplation and mild regret.

I was never able to write seriously about heroes because I was very aware that I was not one and that in my background there was not this heroic thing.

I do think that short story writing is often a matter of luck.

Ethical and questions of philosophy interest me a great deal.

Science fiction is very healthy in its form.
