Evolution has ensured that our brains just aren't equipped to visualise 11 dimensions directly. However, from a purely mathematical point of view it's just as easy to think in 11 dimensions, as it is to think in three or four.

More quotes by Stephen Hawking
Theology is unnecessary.
Stephen Hawking
Many people do not like the idea that time has a beginning, probably because it smacks of divine intervention.
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
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
I think the human race doesn't have a future if we don't go into space. We need to expand our horizons beyond planet Earth if we are to have a long-term future. We cannot remain looking inward at ourselves on a small and increasingly polluted and overcrowded planet. We need to look outward to the wider universe.
Stephen Hawking
The real challenge is to work out what aliens might actually be like.
Stephen Hawking
Many people find the universe confusing - it's not.
Stephen Hawking
Do you believe in first love - or should I pass by again?
Stephen Hawking
My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn't prevent you doing well, and don't regret the things it interferes with. Don't be disabled in spirit, as well as physically.
Stephen Hawking
It matters that you don't just give up.
Stephen Hawking
I am damned if I'm going to die before I have unraveled more of the universe
Stephen Hawking
Women. They are a complete mystery.
Stephen Hawking
Science is beautiful when it makes simple explanations of phenomena or connections between different observations.
Stephen Hawking
The large-scale homogeneity of the universe makes it very difficult to believe that the structure of the universe is determined by anything so peripheral as some complicated molecular structure on a minor planet orbiting a very average star in the outer suburbs of a fairly typical galaxy.
Stephen Hawking
People think I'm a Simpsons character.
Stephen Hawking
Philosophers have not kept up with modern developments in science. Particularly physics.
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
The human race does not have a very good record of intelligent behavior.
Stephen Hawking
As a child, I wanted to know how things worked and to control them. With a friend, I built a number of complicated models that I could control. It was a natural next step to want to know how the universe works.
Stephen Hawking
All my adult life people have been helping me.
Stephen Hawking
