📑 Sunday Quote

from No Time to Spare: Thinking about What Matters by Ursula K. Le Guin 📚

"“It doesn’t have to be the way it is” is a playful statement, made in the context of fiction, with no claim to “being real.” Yet it is a subversive statement. Subversion doesn’t suit people who, feeling their adjustment to life has been successful, want things to go on just as they are, or people who need support from authority assuring them that things are as they have to be. Fantasy not only asks “What if things didn’t go on just as they do?” but demonstrates what they might be like if they went otherwise—thus gnawing at the very foundation of the belief that things have to be the way they are." (Ursula K. Le Guin, Karen Joy Fowler (Introduction), No Time to Spare)
