More quotes by 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
We waste time, so you don't have to.
Stephen Hawking
There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark.
Stephen Hawking
What I have done is to show that it is possible for the way the universe began to be determined by the laws of science. In that case, it would not be necessary to appeal to God to decide how the universe began. This doesn't prove that there is no God, only that God is not necessary.
Stephen Hawking
The real challenge is to work out what aliens might actually be like.
Stephen Hawking
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the Universe exists, why we exist. It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the Universe going.
Stephen Hawking
I have so much that I want to do. I hate wasting time.
Stephen Hawking
I believe things cannot make themselves impossible.
Stephen Hawking
If we do discover a complete theory, it should be in time understandable in broad principle by everyone. Then we shall all, philosophers, scientists, and just ordinary people be able to take part in the discussion of why we and the universe exist.
Stephen Hawking
Time travel may be possible, but it is not practical.
Stephen Hawking
The human failing I would most like to correct is aggression. It may have had survival advantage in caveman days, to get more food, territory or a partner with whom to reproduce, but now it threatens to destroy us all.
Stephen Hawking
Once I wept for I had no shoes. Then I met a man with no feet, so I took his shoes. I mean, it wasn't as if he was going to need them.
Stephen Hawking
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
Whether you want to uncover the secrets of the universe, or you just want to pursue a career in the 21st century, basic computer programming is an essential skill to learn
Stephen Hawking
A snooze button is a poor substitute for no alarm clock at all.
Stephen Hawking
Not to take this web of dualities as a sign we are on the right track would be a bit like believing that God put fossils into the rocks in order to mislead Darwin about the evolution of life.
Stephen Hawking
One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it. Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away.
Stephen Hawking
Nothing is better than reading and gaining more and more knowledge.
Stephen Hawking
I don't want to write an autobiography because I would become public property with no privacy left.
Stephen Hawking
Theology is unnecessary.
Stephen Hawking
