Isaac Asimov
Love life seems to be that factor which requires the largest quantity of magical tinkering.
Isaac Asimov

Isaac Asimov
Never judge your own writing. You're not fit to do so.
Isaac Asimov
If there is a category of human being for whom his work ought to speak for itself, it is the writer.
Isaac Asimov
