More From Kim Stanley Robinson

Will there ever be an encyclopedia? possibly. i would say two things about the encyclopedia: firstly, i’ve always said and i stand by it, whenever i do do a printed encyclopedia i would like all the proceeds to go to charity. back in 1998 i never dreamt i personally i would be in the position that i could set up a large charitable foundation and personally do things for charity, and i’ve done other charity books already.
Book Two Would Be
I feel like i've dreamed half of my life that hasn't happened yet, so a lot of times i'm going along, and i do stuff, and i know that i've done it. i have deja vus more than i have regular experiences. if half of your day is a deja vu, then you start to wonder, 'what is real and what isn't?'

The example of changing a constitution by assembling the wise men of the state, instead of assembling armies, will be worth as much to the world as the former examples we had give them. the constitution, too, which was the result of our deliberation, is unquestionably the wisest ever yet presented to men.

It's a common mistake for vacationing americans to assume that everyone around them is french and therefore speaks no english whatsoever.

All the mistakes i ever made were when i wanted to say 'no' and said 'yes'.

Theocracy is the worst of all governments. if we must have a tyrant, a robber baron is far better than an inquisitor. the baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity at some point be sated; and since he dimly knows he is doing wrong he may possibly repent. but the inquisitor who mistakes his own cruelty and lust of power and fear for the voice of heaven will torment us infinitely because he torments us with the approval of his own conscience and his better impulses appear to him as temptations.
Mistake Sleep Tyrants
When your opponent fears you, then's the moment when you give the fear its own rein, give it the time to work on him. let it become terror. the terrified man fights himself. eventually, he attacks in desperation. that is the most dangerous moment, but the terrified man can be trusted usually to make a fatal mistake. you are being trained here to detect these mistakes and use them.
