As far as hypnosis is concerned, I had a very serious problem when I was in my twenties. I encountered a man who later became the president of the American Society of Medical Hypnosis. He couldnt hypnotize me. – Theodore Sturgeon
Science fiction, outside of poetry, is the only literary field which has no limits, no parameters whatsoever. – Theodore Sturgeon

I wrote the very first stories in science fiction which dealt with homosexuality, The World Well Lost and Affair With a Green Monkey. – Theodore Sturgeon
