Absent Aliens/Quotes

"Two possibilities exist: Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying."

- Arthur C. Clarke

"There is no reason to assume that the universe has the slightest interest in intelligence, or even in life. Both may be random accidental by-products of its operations like the beautiful patterns on a butterfly's wings. The insect would fly just as well without them."

- Arthur C. Clarke

""Rimmer, there's nothing out there, you know. There's nobody out there. No alien monsters, no Zargon warships, no beautiful blondes with beehive hairdos who say, 'Show me some more of this Earth thing called kissing.'""

- Lister, Red Dwarf
