Arthur C. Clarke: 3. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
“There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in our philosophy.”
- Hamlet (1.5.167-8)
Info about my philosophy:
"To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow." -- Metrodorus, 4th c BC Greek philosopher
"Heaven and earth are large, yet in the whole of space they are but as a small grain of rice. How unreasonable it would be to suppose that, besides the heaven and earth which we can see, there are no other heavens and no other earths." -- Teng Mu, 13th c AD Chinese philosopher
Thank you. I am not as widely read as you.
I *love* audiobooks. :^)
