More quotes by Stephen Hawking
The idea that we are alone in the universe seems to me completely implausible and arrogant, considering the number of planets and stars that we know exist, it's extremely unlikely that we are the only form of evolved life.
Stephen Hawking
Whether you want to uncover the secrets of the universe, or you just want to pursue a career in the 21st century, basic computer programming is an essential skill to learn
Stephen Hawking
I think the brain is essentially a computer and consciousness is like a computer program. It will cease to run when the computer is turned off. Theoretically, it could be re-created on a neural network, but that would be very difficult, as it would require all one's memories.
Stephen Hawking
There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.
Stephen Hawking
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing.
Stephen Hawking
All my adult life people have been helping me.
Stephen Hawking
I don't want to write an autobiography because I would become public property with no privacy left.
Stephen Hawking
TEAMWORK...means never having to take all the blame yourself.
Stephen Hawking
I have so much that I want to do. I hate wasting time.
Stephen Hawking
When I was young, Stephen Hawking wasn't the world's most famous physicist. The fame didn't arrive until the publication of A Brief History of Time, by which time I was in my late teens. When I was a child, he was well known among physicists, but they are a fairly select, serious bunch, not much given to celebrity idolizing.
Stephen Hawking
We find ourselves in a bewildering world. We want to make sense of what we see around us and to ask: What is the nature of the universe? What is our place in it and where did it and we come from? Why is it the way it is?
Stephen Hawking
Nothing is better than reading and gaining more and more knowledge.
Stephen Hawking
More often than politicians, but not as often as they should.
Stephen Hawking
Over a very small number of rolls of the dice, the uncertainty principle is very important.
Stephen Hawking
If any one of about 40 physical qualities had more than slightly different values, life as we know it could not exist.
Stephen Hawking
In effect, we have redefined the task of science to be the discovery of laws that will enable us to predict events up to the limits set by the uncertainty principle.
Stephen Hawking
I'm very interested in film making. It's telling a story, fiction or non-fiction. I have been filmed quite a lot. Contrary to popular belief, filming isn't glamorous. It can be wearingly repetitious, as the same shot is taken over and over again.
Stephen Hawking
A lot of prizes have been awarded for showing the universe is not as simple as we might have thought.
Stephen Hawking
My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.
Stephen Hawking
The usual approach of science of constructing a mathematical model cannot answer the questions of why there should be a universe for the model to describe. Why does the universe go to all the bother of existing?
Stephen Hawking
