Rod Serling: Citáty anglicky

“There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity.”

First introduction to The Twilight Zone television series; first episode (2 October 1959).
The Twilight Zone
Kontext: There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.

“All the Dachaus must remain standing.”

The Twilight Zone, "Death's-Head Revisited" (1961).
The Twilight Zone
Kontext: There is an answer to the doctor's question. All the Dachaus must remain standing. The Dachaus, the Belsens, the Buchenwald, the Auschwitzes – all of them. They must remain standing because they are a monument to a moment in time when some men decided to turn the Earth into a graveyard. Into it they shoveled all of their reason, their logic, their knowledge, but worst of all, their conscience. And the moment we forget this, the moment we cease to be haunted by its remembrance, then we become the gravediggers. Something to dwell on and to remember, not only in the Twilight Zone but wherever men walk God's Earth.

“Every writer is a frustrated actor who recites his lines in the hidden auditorium of his skull.”

“… the worst aspect of our time is prejudice… In almost everything I've written, there is a thread of this - man's seemingly palpable need to dislike someone other than himself.”

Ellen Cameron May, "Serling in Creative Mainstream" (profile/interview), Los Angeles Times (June 25, 1967), page C22-23.
Other
Kontext: I happen to think that the singular evil of our time is prejudice. It is from this evil that all other evils grow and multiply. In almost everything I've written there is a thread of this: man's seemingly palpable need to dislike someone other than himself.

“If you need drugs to be a good writer, you're not a good writer.”

“Science fiction makes the implausible possible, while science fantasy makes the impossible plausible.”

The Twilight Zone, "The Fugitive" (1962).
The Twilight Zone
Varianta: Science fiction is the improbable made possible, and fantasy is the impossible made probable.
Kontext: It is said that science fiction and fantasy are two different things. Science fiction is the improbable made possible, and fantasy is the impossible made probable.

“Hollywood's a great place to live… if you're a grapefruit.”

From a letter to his wife, as quoted in Rod Serling: Submitted for Your Approval (October 1997), American Masters (PBS: Thirteen/WNET).
