Additional quotes by Isaac Asimov

Desde el punto de vista sociológico, es como si, cuando el viejo Imperio empezó a descomponerse en sus bordes, la ciencia les hubiese fallado a los mundos periféricos.

somewhere deep inside a bit of sanity was screaming, struggling to fight off
the hopeless flood of black terror. It was very horrible to go mad and know
