My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn't prevent you doing well, and don't regret the things it interferes with. Don't be disabled in spirit, as well as physically.

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

Science is not only a disciple of reason but, also, one of romance and passion.
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.

I don't think the human race will survive the next thousand years, unless we spread into space.

People who boast about their I.Q. are losers.

Science does not deny religion, it just offers a simpler alternative.

We waste time, so you don't have to.

Most sets of values would give rise to universes that, although they might be very beautiful, would contain no one able to wonder at that beauty.
Stephen Hawking

Or in other words, why does disorder increase in the same direction of time as that in which the universe expands?
Stephen Hawking

The downside of my celebrity is that I cannot go anywhere in the world without being recognized. It is not enough for me to wear dark sunglasses and a wig. The wheelchair gives me away.

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.

Before we understand science, it is natural to believe that God created the universe. But now science offers a more convincing explanation.

Only time - whatever that may be - will tell.

The concern here is that financial services become a kind of tech-led Wild West.
