More quotes by Arthur C. Clarke

Arthur C. Clarke
I have never grown up, but I will never stop growing.
Arthur C. Clarke

Arthur C. Clarke
I don't believe in astrology I'm a Sagittarius and we're skeptical.
Arthur C. Clarke
Attempting to define science fiction is an undertaking almost as difficult, though not so popular, as trying to define pornography... In both pornography and SF, the problem lies in knowing exactly where to draw the line.
Arthur C. Clarke
The space elevator will be built about 50 years after everyone stops laughing.
Arthur C. Clarke
When the Sun shrinks to a dull red dwarf, it will not be dying. It will just be starting to live and everything that has gone before will merely be a prelude to its real history.
Arthur C. Clarke
If children have interests, then education happens.
Arthur C. Clarke
One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion.
Arthur C. Clarke
Religion is a byproduct of fear.
Arthur C. Clarke
One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all.
Arthur C. Clarke
