Stephen Hawking
A zero-gravity flight is a first step toward space travel.
Stephen Hawking
I do not believe in a personal God.
Stephen Hawking
There is a very real danger that we will kill everything on this planet now that we have the technological power to do so.
Stephen Hawking
In Britain, like most of the developed world, stem-cell research is regarded as a great opportunity. America will be left behind if it doesn't change policy.
Stephen Hawking
It is very important for young people keep their sense of wonder and keep asking why.
Stephen Hawking
