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
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
So long as the Universe had a beginning, we could suppose it had a creator. But if the Universe is really completely self-contained, it would have neither beginning or end, it would simply be. What place then for a creator?
Stephen Hawking
The concern here is that financial services become a kind of tech-led Wild West.
Stephen Hawking
Science does not deny religion, it just offers a simpler alternative.
Stephen Hawking
The universe does not behave according to our pre-conceived ideas. It continues to surprise us.
Stephen Hawking
We won't know for a few years.
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
If one is physically disabled, one cannot afford to be psychologically disabled as well.
Stephen Hawking
Humanities deepest desire for knowledge is justification enough for continuing our quest. and our goal is nothing less than a complete description of the universe we live in.
Stephen Hawking
The human failing I would most like to correct is aggression.
Stephen Hawking
We shouldn't be surprised that conditions in the universe are suitable for life, but this is not evidence that the universe was designed to allow for life. We could call order by the name of God, but it would be an impersonal God. There's not much personal about the laws of physics.
Stephen Hawking
We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special.
Stephen Hawking
[In the Universe it may be that] Primitive life is very common and intelligent life is fairly rare. Some would say it has yet to occur on Earth.
Stephen Hawking
The human capacity for guilt is such that people can always find ways to blame themselves
Stephen Hawking
I have to speak through a computer... in my mind, I am free. Free to explore the universe and ask the big questions...
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
Though we feel we can choose what we do, our understanding of the molecular basis of biology shows that biological processes are governed by the laws of physics and chemistry and therefore are as determined as the orbits of the planets.
Stephen Hawking
In real time, the universe has a beginning and an end at singularities that form a boundary to space-time and at which the laws of science break down.
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
We don't let animals suffer, so why humans?
Stephen Hawking
