Additional quotes by Isaac Asimov

nadie utilizó la palabra «robot» hasta 1920 (casualmente el año en que yo nací). Aquel año, un dramaturgo checo, Karel Capek, escribió la obra R.U.R., sobre un inglés, Rossum, que fabricaba seres humanos artificiales en cantidad. Éstos estaban destinados a realizar las labores arduas de la Tierra, de forma que los seres humanos reales pudiesen vivir placentera y confortablemente sus vidas.

Though only a robot, he had known the continuity and stability of family life; he had known warmth; he had known love.
