More quotes by Stephen Hawking
If we ever do find a complete theory of the universe, it would be a great triumph of human reason but it wouldn't leave much for us to do. We need an intellectual challenge.
Stephen Hawking
It is reasonable to ask who or what created the universe, but if the answer is God, then the question has merely been deflected to that of who created God.
Stephen Hawking
The lesson of the book is that the universe is governed by the laws of science.
Stephen Hawking
What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise.
Stephen Hawking
If the rate of expansion one second after the Big Bang had been smaller by even one part in a hundred thousand million million, it would have recollapsed before it reached its present size. On the other hand, if it had been greater by a part in a million, the universe would have expanded too rapidly for stars and planets to form.
Stephen Hawking
It matters if you don't just give up.
Stephen Hawking
The moment you understand the whole Universe, is the moment you slightly begin to understand the way God's mind works
Stephen Hawking
We don't let animals suffer, so why humans?
Stephen Hawking
The whole history of science has been the gradual realization that events do not happen in an arbitrary manner, but that they reflect a certain underlying order, which may or may not be divinely inspired.
Stephen Hawking
To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational.
Stephen Hawking
If at first you don't succeed, try management.
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
One could imagine such technology outsmarting financial markets, out-inventing human researchers, out-manipulating human leaders, and developing weapons we cannot even understand.
Stephen Hawking
A snooze button is a poor substitute for no alarm clock at all.
Stephen Hawking
Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.
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
You cannot understand the glories of the universe without believing there is some Supreme Power behind it.
Stephen Hawking
Computer viruses are alive.
Stephen Hawking
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
Science fiction can be exciting and very gripping, but it doesn't tell us anything about the universe in which we live.
Stephen Hawking
