Federation Quotes - Page 2

• Among the fundamental likeness between the Revolutionary Republicans and the Anarchists is the recognition that the little must precede the great; that the local must be the basis of the general; that there can be a free federation only when there are free communities to federate; that the spirit of the latter is carried into the councils of the former, and a local tyranny may thus become an instrument for general enslavement.

• The lesson of the Federation should be that the lesson is over. Australia must have a new idea of itself. We have to strike out in a new direction, in a new way, armed with our own self-regard, our own confidence and fully appreciating our own uniqueness. All other roads will lead us into the shadow of great powers.

• La ciencia ficción utiliza las imágenes que la sf -empezando por H.G. Wells- hizo familiares: viajes espaciales, extraterrestres, guerras y federaciones galácticas, máquinas del tiempo, etcétera, tomándolas al pie de la letra, sin importarle si son posibles o incluso plausibles. No tiene ningún interés ni relación con la ciencia o la tecnología reales. Es fantasía con trajes espaciales. Espectáculo. Magos con láser. Niños con pistolas de rayos. He escrito ambas cosas, pero tengo que decir que respeto la ciencia ficción lo suficiente como para estremecerme cuando la gente la llama ciencia ficción.
