We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special.

More quotes by Stephen Hawking
I don't fear God- I fear His believers.
Stephen Hawking
We live in the most probable of all possible worlds.
Stephen Hawking
Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it.
Stephen Hawking
It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival value.
Stephen Hawking
I have to speak through a computer... in my mind, I am free. Free to explore the universe and ask the big questions...
Stephen Hawking
While physics and mathematics may tell us how the universe began, they are not much use in predicting human behavior because there are far too many equations to solve. I'm no better than anyone else at understanding what makes people tick, particularly women.
Stephen Hawking
It often happens that I have an idea, but then I try to fill in the intermediate steps and find they don't work, so I have to give it up.
Stephen Hawking
Hang in there, retirement is only thirty years away!
Stephen Hawking
Nothing is better than reading and gaining more and more knowledge.
Stephen Hawking
It is said that there's no such thing as a free lunch. But the universe is the ultimate free lunch.
Stephen Hawking
If there really is a complete unified theory that governs everything, it presumably also determines your actions. But it does so in a way that is impossible to calculate for an organism that is as complicated as a human being. The reason we say that humans have free will is because we can't predict what they will do.
Stephen Hawking
thus, in a sense, we are all doomed. even if we stay away from black holes
Stephen Hawking
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist. It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the Universe going.
Stephen Hawking
We each exist for but a short time, and in that time explore but a small part of the whole universe
Stephen Hawking
God abhors a naked singularity.
Stephen Hawking
If we ever do find a complete theory of the universe, it would be a great triumph of human reason but it wouldn't leave much for us to do. We need an intellectual challenge.
Stephen Hawking
Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?
Stephen Hawking
I would like nuclear fusion to become a practical power source. It would provide an inexhaustible supply of energy, without pollution or global warming.
Stephen Hawking
Over a very small number of rolls of the dice, the uncertainty principle is very important.
Stephen Hawking
I don't think the human race will survive the next thousand years, unless we spread into space.
Stephen Hawking
