* TimelineAlteringMacGuffin: Creator/LewisPadgett's "Literature/MimsyWereTheBorogoves": A scientist doing an experiment in TimeTravel realises he doesn't have anything to send back, so he grabs some of his children's educational toys and sends them back to 1943 (when the story was written) where they educate a brother and sister how to move into another dimension, which they do before their father's horrified eyes.
* TimeMachine: Creator/LewisPadgett's "Literature/MimsyWereTheBorogoves": Unthahorsten built a Box which could travel in time and sent it to the past.

First published in 1981 by editors Creator/IsaacAsimov and Creator/MartinHGreenberg. This GenreAnthology contains twelve ScienceFiction stories that were first published in 1943, ranging in length from ShortStory to {{Novelette}}. The introduction describes "the world outside reality" first, marking significant historical events, sports trivia, and literary publications. The "real world" is the science fiction and fantasy pop culture, the birth of what many in the 1970s were calling the Golden Age of Science Fiction.

!!''Isaac Asimov Presents: The Great Science Fiction Stories, Volume 5 (1943)'' provides examples of:
* AsTheGoodBookSays: Creator/LawrenceODonnell's "Literature/ClashByNight": Amoung the books quoted here is ''The Book of Common Prayer'', which is a common name for several different books, mostly published by the Anglican Church. The quoted line is "We eat and drink our own damnation".

* FunetikAksent: Creator/Anthonyboucher's "Literature/{{QUR}}": All Martians have a difficulty in pronouncing English words, particularly in saying their "t" and "p" sounds, making the drink "Three Planets" sound like "Bree Blanedz".
