Science fiction is no more written for scientists that ghost stories are written for ghosts.

Science fiction is no more written for scientists that ghost

Summary

This quote suggests that science fiction literature is not exclusively intended for scientists, just as ghost stories are not exclusively intended for ghosts. It implies that the primary audience for science fiction is not necessarily experts in scientific fields, but rather a wider range of readers who enjoy imaginative and speculative storytelling. Just like how ghost stories can be enjoyed by anyone seeking thrills or supernatural experiences, science fiction appeals to those interested in exploring futuristic concepts, alternate realities, and the impact of technology on society.
