1993 Honda Civic no start

I have a 93 Honda Civic dx that randomly won't start. When it turn the key there is one click by the fuse box and battery. I know the battery is good and I've checked the fuses. I was told it could be the starter but I'm not sure since the click isn't coming from said starter. Can anyone help?

so it doesn't crank when you try to start it?
if it's stick can you bump start it?

I can bump start it without a problem. I tested the starter with a screw driver trick and the starter turns but none of the belts or fans turn with it.

I'd throw a starter at it then.

You're saying that when the engine cranks none of the belts or pulleys turn? That seems odd. Maybe take the belts off and see if a pulley is seized?
