More quotes by Stephen Hawking
If there really is a complete unified theory that governs everything, it presumably also determines your actions. But it does so in a way that is impossible to calculate for an organism that is as complicated as a human being. The reason we say that humans have free will is because we can't predict what they will do.
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
It was recently discovered that research causes cancer in rats.
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
It is very important for young people keep their sense of wonder and keep asking why.
Stephen Hawking
I wouldnt be here today if it were not for the NHS, I have received a large amount of high-quality treatment without which I would not have survived.
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
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing.
Stephen Hawking
I’m not religious in the normal sense. I believe the universe is governed by the laws of science. The laws may have been decreed by God, but God does not intervene to break the laws.
Stephen Hawking
We live in the most probable of all possible worlds.
Stephen Hawking
If I had to choose a superhero to be, I would pick Superman. He's everything that I'm not.
Stephen Hawking
I don't think the human race will survive the next thousand years, unless we spread into space.
Stephen Hawking
Using e-mail, I can communicate with scientists all over the world.
Stephen Hawking
If aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn't turn out well for the Native Americans.
Stephen Hawking
Our only chance of long-term survival is not to remain lurking on planet Earth, but to spread out into space.
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
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
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
Galileo, perhaps more than any other single person, was responsible for the birth of modern science.
Stephen Hawking
Only time - whatever that may be - will tell.
