Quotes of Brian Aldiss

  • Whatever creativity is, it is in part a solution to a problem. (creativity)
  • Writers must fortify themselves with pride and egotism as best they can. The process is analogous to using sandbags and loose timbers to protect a house against flood. Writers are vulnerable creatures like anyone else. For what do they have in reality? Not sandbags, not timbers. Just a flimsy reputation and a name. (writers and writing)
  • Civilization is the distance man has placed between himself and his excreta. (civilization)
  • Feedback is a pleasant thing. I get a lot of letters from unexpected people in unexpected places. (letters)
  • I am a writer and always was; being a writer is an integral part of my identity. Being published, being well regarded, is a component of that identity. (writers)
  • I can't help believing that these things that come from the subconscious mind have a sort of truth to them. It may not be a scientific truth, but it's psychological truth. (truth)
  • It is comparatively easy to become a writer; staying a writer, resisting formulaic work, generating one's own creativity - that's a much tougher matter. (writers)
  • Keep violence in the mind where it belongs. (violence)
  • Science fiction is no more written for scientists that ghost stories are written for ghosts. (fiction)
  • When childhood dies, its corpses are called adults. (childhood)

  • If you enjoy the fragrance of a rose, you must accept the thorns which it bears. (Isaac Hayes)


    • Worst Quote

  • “I would like to think I would rise to the occasion, but it's just interesting to me how powerful human beings can be when pushed to their limit and I really wanted to find it realistically that she could fight back, that she could take the skills she had learned just from being a hotel manager and turn them around and actually escape the situation.” (Rachel McAdams) [think/human/find/fight]
