“Fiction is lies; we're writing about people who never existed and events that never happened when we write fiction, whether its science fiction or fantasy or western mystery stories or so-called literary stories. All those things are essentially untrue. But it has to have a truth at the core of it.” PeopleWritingStoriesLyingFictionFantasyHappenedMysteryEventsScience FictionWesternCoreUntrue Author:George R.

“I believe that everybody, whether you believe in the afterlife or the chance of a near-death experience and you come back and you see someone [on the other side] - whether that has happened or not, I don't know, but certainly everyone has thought about it at some point or another in time. It's a fantasy that if there is anything out there like that, it would be just terrific, but that remains to be seen.” IfsKnowsBelieveWould BeI BelieveSidesChanceFantasyHappenedRemainsAfterlifeTerrificNear DeathNear Death Experience Author:Clint Eastwood
