...[T]he only means I have to stop ignorant snobs from behaving towards genre fiction with snobbish ignorance is to not reinforce their ignorance and snobbery by lying and saying that when I write SF it isn't SF, but to tell them more or less patiently for forty or fifty years that they are wrong to exclude SF and fantasy from literature, and proving my arguments by writing well.

Não existe princípio nem fim, pois todas as coisas estão no Centro do Tempo. Assim como todas as estrelas podem se refletir numa gota de chuva caindo na noite, também todas as estrelas refletem a gota de chuva. Não existe escuridão nem morte, pois todas as coisas existem na luz do Instante, e seu fim e seu início são um. Um centro, uma visão, uma lei, uma luz. Olhe agora no Olho de Meshe!

If you want to see what my Earthsea looks like, you could sail past the Scilly Isles (handy for you Brits); or you could go to a little bay called Trinidad on the far north coast of California on a foggy morning (not so handy for you Brits). But these are both places I saw long after I had mapped and travelled in the Archipelago. It was pleasant to be able to say - ah! yes! that looks just like the West Reach!
