Definitions and quotes

Space
Space is the boundless three-dimensional extent in which objects and events have relative position and direction. Physical space is often conceived in three linear dimensions, although modern physicists usually consider it, with time, to be part of a boundless four-dimensional continuum known as spacetime. The concept of space is considered to be of fundamental importance to an understanding of the physical universe. However, disagreement continues between philosophers over whether it is itself an entity, a relationship between entities, or part of a conceptual framework.
Space
Why are the heavens not filled with light? Why is the universe plunged into darkness?
Edward Robert Harrison, Darkness at Night: a Riddle of the Universe (1987), p. 1
Space
No creature loves an empty space;
Their bodies measure out their place.
Andrew Marvell, Upon Appleton House, to My Lord Fairfax
Space
We cannot predict the new forces, powers, and discoveries that will be disclosed to us when we reach the other planets and set up new laboratories in space. They are as much beyond our vision today as fire or electricity would be beyond the imagination of a fish.
Arthur C. Clarke, Space and the Spirit of Man (1965)
