What do you think of Arthur C. Clarke's epitath?

"Here lies Arthur C Clarke. He never grew up and did not stop growing."





Reports say that this is what Sir Arthur asked to be put on his gravestone in Sri Lanka. I REALLY like it. I may "borrow it" myself. Arthur C. Clarke was buried in Sri Landa today; I'll miss not having any new writings from him

Being a sci-fi fan, I was sad to hear of his passing. An era gone....
Reply:Very fitting and he will be missed.

Reply:Thank you for sharing this information. I didn't know.
Reply:It was good, but I like mine too: Here' s where my name stopped last or even Bob Hope's last request for where he wanted to be buried when asked by his wife and he said Surprise Me!
