And if we do it, the 21st century will be the most interesting, exciting, peaceful era in history  (Century Quotes) Nearly every problem has been solved by someone, somewhere. The challenge of the 21st century is to find out what works and scale it up  (Century Quotes) The defining challenge of the 21st century will be to face the reality that humanity shares a common fate on a crowded planet  (Century Quotes) No one who has lived through the second half of the 20th century could possibly be blind to the enormous impact of exchange programs on the future of countries  (Century Quotes) Science fiction is the characteristic literary genre of the century. It is the genre that stands in opposition to literary modernism  (Century Quotes) But whatever you might say and whatever I might say, a machine which can play chess with people is one of the most marvellous wonders of our 20th century  (Century Quotes)
