Stephen Hawking
It matters if you don't just give up.
Stephen Hawking
The human race does not have a very good record of intelligent behavior.
Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking
More often than politicians, but not as often as they should.
Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking
TEAMWORK...means never having to take all the blame yourself.
Stephen Hawking
We don't let animals suffer, so why humans?
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
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
Many people find the universe confusing - it's not.
Stephen Hawking
Science does not deny religion, it just offers a simpler alternative.
Stephen Hawking
It would be very difficult to explain why the universe should have begun in just this way, except as the act of a God who intended to create beings like us.
Stephen Hawking
I do not believe in a personal God.
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
Scientists have become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge.
Stephen Hawking
Save water. Shower with your girlfriend.
Stephen Hawking
You cannot understand the glories of the universe without believing there is some Supreme Power behind it.
Stephen Hawking
