About this Quote

This quote by Isaac Asimov speaks with the power of science fiction authors to imagine the future and the potential repercussions of our actions. It recommends that while science fiction authors can prepare for the prospective problems and disasters that might develop, they can not necessarily anticipate the options. This suggests that while the future may be uncertain, it depends on us to discover solutions to the issues that occur. Asimov's quote encourages us to believe critically and proactively about the future, and to take duty for our actions and their consequences. It likewise acts as a pointer that while the future may be unforeseeable, it is up to us to develop the solutions that will help us to conquer the challenges that arise.
