Additional quotes by Ursula K. Le Guin

Would you really like to live in a society where you have no responsibility and no freedom, no choice, only the false option of obedience to the law, or disobedience followed by punishment? Would you really want to go live in a prison?

You can’t crush ideas by suppressing them. You can only crush them by ignoring them. By refusing to think, refusing to change. And that’s precisely what our society is doing!

They can keep their God, they can keep their Light. I want the world back. I want questions, not the answer. I want my own life back, and my own death!

If I’m ninety and believe I’m forty-five, I’m headed for a very bad time trying to get out of the bathtub. - Ursula K. Le Guin
