More quotes by Stephen Hawking
There is a real danger that computers will develop intelligence and take over.
Stephen Hawking
There are no black holes - in the sense of regimes from which light can't escape to infinity. There are however apparent horizons which persist for a period of time.
Stephen Hawking
We should seek the greatest value of our action.
Stephen Hawking
Theology is unnecessary.
Stephen Hawking
Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.
Stephen Hawking
The more you learn, the more you know. The more you know, the more you forget. The more you forget, the less you know. So why bother to learn.
Stephen Hawking
At times, I get very lonely because people are afraid to talk to me or don't wait for me to write a response. I'm shy and tongue-tied at times. I find it difficult to talk to people who I don't know.
Stephen Hawking
We are all now connected by the Internet, like neurons in a giant brain.
Stephen Hawking
To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational.
Stephen Hawking
The downside of my celebrity is that I cannot go anywhere in the world without being recognized. It is not enough for me to wear dark sunglasses and a wig. The wheelchair gives me away.
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
Doing a job RIGHT the first time gets the job done. Doing the job WRONG fourteen times gives you job security.
Stephen Hawking
Computers double their performance every month.
Stephen Hawking
We've created life in our own image.
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
The human race is just a chemical scum on a moderate-sized planet, orbiting around a very average star in the outer suburb of one among a hundred billion galaxies. We are so insignificant that I can't believe the whole universe exists for our benefit. That would be like saying that you would disappear if I closed my eyes.
Stephen Hawking
The doctor who diagnosed me with ALS, or motor neuron disease, told me that it would kill me in two or three years.
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
I am damned if I'm going to die before I have unraveled more of the universe
Stephen Hawking
Never put off the work till tomorrow what you can put off today.
Stephen Hawking
