More quotes by Stephen Hawking
It's the gravity that shapes the large scale structure of the universe, even though it is the weakest of four categories of forces
Stephen Hawking
There are too many accidents that can befall life on a single planet.
Stephen Hawking
Nothing cannot exist forever.
Stephen Hawking
The human failing I would most like to correct is aggression. It may have had survival advantage in caveman days, to get more food, territory or a partner with whom to reproduce, but now it threatens to destroy us all.
Stephen Hawking
Over a very small number of rolls of the dice, the uncertainty principle is very important.
Stephen Hawking
Children in backseats cause accidents. Accidents in backseats cause children.
Stephen Hawking
No one can resist the idea of a crippled genius.
Stephen Hawking
You cannot understand the glories of the universe without believing there is some Supreme Power behind it.
Stephen Hawking
It is a waste of time to be angry about my disability. One has to get on with life and I haven't done badly. People won't have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.
Stephen Hawking
More often than politicians, but not as often as they should.
Stephen Hawking
What I have done is to show that it is possible for the way the universe began to be determined by the laws of science. In that case, it would not be necessary to appeal to God to decide how the universe began. This doesn't prove that there is no God, only that God is not necessary.
Stephen Hawking
People think I'm a Simpsons character.
Stephen Hawking
The meaning in life is not out there but inbetween our ears. In many ways this makes us the lords of creation.
Stephen Hawking
It matters that you don't just give up.
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
One can't prove that God doesn't exist. But science makes God unnecessary. The laws of physics can explain the universe without the need for a creator.
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
No one undertakes research in physics with the intention of winning a prize. It is the joy of discovering something no one knew before.
Stephen Hawking
Scientists have become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge.
Stephen Hawking
One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it. Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away.
Stephen Hawking
