I think that most of us, anyway, read these stories that we know are not true because we're hungry for another kind of truth: the mythic truth about human nature in general, the particular truth about those life-communities that define our own identity, and the most specific truth of all: our own self-story. Fiction, because it is not about someone who lived in the real world, always has the possibility of being about oneself. --From the Introduction ✨ Orson Scott Card (2010). Ender's Game, p.15, Macmillan
