NG: “What’s the most important thing about fiction?”

- Just as mainstream literature shows us how our contemporaries view the present, and historical fiction shows us how they view the past (not, of course, what the present or the past were actually like), so speculative fiction shows us how they view the future. I happen to believe that my contemporaries' view of the past is not very important; but their view of the present is quite definitely important, and their view of the future is vital.
- "The Right of Things to Come", presentation for the Science Fiction Research Association (1978), as published in Castle of Days (1992)
