All you need to know in life, you’ll learn from sci-fi aphorisms. But what happens when you shake things up and mix and match?

He got us at Fear is the cat-killer. It won’t take much effort for you to figure out where this comes from, will it?
Our favorites:
Asimov’s cat

Holmesian cat

Holmesian litany
When you have eliminated the fear, whatever remains, however improbable, is the mind-killer.
Alien’s Third Law
In space, technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Dune’s First Law of Robotics
Fear is the robot that somehow figured out how to harm a human through mind-killing.
Brilliant, aren’t they???
