A large fraction of the most interesting scientists have read a lot of SF at one time or another, either early enough that it may have played a part in their becoming scientists or at some later date just because they liked the ideas.

  • -- Frederik Pohl 弗雷德里克·波尔

大部分最有趣的科学家都曾经或多或少地读过很多科幻小说，要么是在他们成为科学家的过程中就已经读过了，要么是在他们后来成为科学家的过程中，因为他们喜欢科幻小说中的观点。
