Quote by Arthur C. Clarke

The limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyond them into the impossible.

The limits of the possible can only be defined by going beyo

Summary

This quote, attributed to Arthur C. Clarke, suggests that one can only truly understand the boundaries of what can be achieved by attempting to surpass those limits and explore the realm of the seemingly impossible. It implies that progress and innovation come from pushing the boundaries of what is known and accepted, and daring to venture into uncharted territories. By challenging conventional thinking and venturing into unexplored realms, we can expand our understanding of what is truly possible and push the limits of human capability.
