	"I had thought for years it was time to pillage Homer the way I had with Keats for the two Hyperion books, and that I had done enough reading over the years to use the themes and some of the imagery and ideas in The Iliad in a fun way with SF." - -- Dan simmons

Top 5 quotes from Dan simmons

"I grew up in the Midwest. Everyone there knows - it's in our DNA - that it's important to rotate the crops. Keep growing the same thing in the same field for enough years and nothing will grow. Celebrating diversity, when it comes to growing crops and writing books, is more than a slogan."
"I first created the Hyperion universe for my students during storytelling hour, little by little, day after day."
"As for the depiction of the Catholic church, it's not meant to be a prediction."
"It's odd how violence and humor so often go together, isn't it?"
"My own religious beliefs - or lack of them - aren't pertinent to the ideas and philosophies explored in these books."
