One should love animals. They are so tasty.
Stephen Hawking

Nothing cannot exist forever.
Stephen Hawking
Image
If any one of about 40 physical qualities had more than slightly different values, life as we know it could not exist.
Stephen Hawking
Image
Only time - whatever that may be - will tell.
Stephen Hawking
Image
Science does not deny religion, it just offers a simpler alternative.
Stephen Hawking
Image
Many people do not like the idea that time has a beginning, probably because it smacks of divine intervention.
Stephen Hawking
Image
If human life were long enough to find the ultimate theory, everything would have been solved by previous generations. Nothing would be left to be discovered.

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.

When the going gets tough, the tough take a coffee break.

In a world that is in chaos politically, socially and environmentally, how can the human race sustain another 100 years?
Stephen Hawking
Image
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
Image
Do you believe in first love - or should I pass by again?
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
Image
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
Image
We are entering an increasingly dangerous period of our history. But I'm an optimist.
Stephen Hawking
Image
It should soon be possible dramatically to increase the intelligence and life span of a few individuals. They and their offspring could become a master race. Evolution pays no regard to social justice. It was not fair on the Neanderthals they were replaced by modern humans.
Stephen Hawking
Image
The life we have on Earth must have spontaneously generated itself. It must therefore be possible for life to generate spontaneously elsewhere in the universe.
Stephen Hawking
Image
The victim should have the right to end his life, if he wants. But I think it would be a great mistake. However bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While there's life, there is hope.
Stephen Hawking

There should be a better way to start a day than waking up every morning.
