"The genre is broad and includes life."

"Quantum fiction is literature that embodies the new physical or quantum universe."

"Quantum fiction is any story that witnesses life and the human experience on a subatomic level."

"The people knew what had made them human. It was not their shortcomings, but their hearts."

"Those who had entrusted their leaders knew it was for a purpose, and the purpose should be maintained."
