Today's quote

Comics writer Warren Ellis on sometime science fiction novelist Chairman Bruce Sterling.

I love how Bruce, in a totally arse-backwards and unexpected sort of way, has gone from fulltime sf writer to the kind of steely, omnivorous, worldhopping and determinedly groundbreaking futurist people always misguidedly thought sf writers were. His career is an inspiration, a treasure, and a source of some envy to me.

Strewth.
