I enjoy jokes smiling and making people smile. I may be a little different but that's OK who wants to be normal anyway?

I could write historical fiction or science fiction or a mystery but since I find it fascinating to research the clues of some little know period and develop a story based on that I will probably continue to do it.

When I started in the business there was a thing called adult fantasy but nobody quite knew what it was and most publishers didn't have an adult fantasy list. They had science fiction lists which they stuck a little bit of fantasy into.

The thing that interests me least about the radio business is the radio business. But I've had to learn a little bit about it. It's not rocket science: You get ratings that's good.

Science goes from question to question big questions and little tentative answers. The questions as they age grow ever broader the answers are seen to be more limited.

I've loved science fiction ever since I was a little kid mainly from looking at the covers of science-fiction magazines and books and I've read quite extensively as an adult.

I did although I didn't read from page 1 to page 187 but I read chunks of it. I did a little bit of science when I was in the university so I was able to understand the graphs and pie charts and stuff like that. It was extremely dry.

It cannot be said often enough that science fiction as a genre is incredibly educational - and I'm speaking the written science fiction not 'Star Trek.' Science fiction writers tend to fill their books if they're clever with little bits of interesting stuff and real stuff.

Science my lad is made up of mistakes but they are mistakes which it is useful to make because they lead little by little to the truth.

Science has not yet mastered prophecy. We predict too much for the next year and yet far too little for the next 10.

False facts are highly injurious to the progress of science for they often endure long but false views if supported by some evidence do little harm for every one takes a salutary pleasure in proving their falseness.

The last few years have been my happiest. I'm happy in the years that most people are blue and sad and waiting to die. I don't feel that a bit. Smiling has a lot to do with it. You can just lift your spirits by smiling a little bit.

When I was leaving I kind of felt a little bit sad because I made some friends down in skid row.

Nolan has the strangest affect on people. You know I think there's something very sad and little boy about him but at the same time the way he goes about everything is so awkward and obnoxious. He can never say the right thing you know? And I think if he just didn't try so hard and calmed down people might actually like him a bit more!

I think when I'm in love I really am very good with calling little faxes and visiting and I really put a lot of effort into it. I'm really not the one that's not available because of work and I'm very sad when I actually leave.

One of the sad things about contemporary journalism is that it actually matters very little. The world now is almost inured to the power of journalism. The best journalism would manage to outrage people. And people are less and less inclined to outrage.

This Olympics is almost a little sad. It is my final Olympics. There are a lot of good memories.

What if the Soviet intervention was a blessing in disguise? It saved the myth that if the Soviets were not to intervene there would have been some flowering authentic democratic socialism and so on. I'm a little bit more of a pessimist there. I think that the Soviets - it's a very sad lesson - by their intervention saved the myth.

I'm sad and blue about nobody but you. I told you that I loved you right from the start you told me the same and now you try to break my little heart.

If you have a friend or family member with breast cancer try not to look at her with 'sad eyes.' Treat her like you always did just show a little extra love.

I love playing football being out on the pitch with a ball and I will be a little sad when that ends.

'Vegas' was something very close to me. I had such a blast doing that. I'm still a little upset that we never really got to shoot that final episode. So many people were invested in it. I'll always be sad about that.

Lately I've been a little sad that I'm not a gay man.

Deep down I reckon the sweetest moment will come when it's finally all over. When at last I know that I can stop fighting. Of course it'll also be a little sad. The sweetest moments y'know always come with just a little sadness.
