More quotes by Stephen Hawking
Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution.
Stephen Hawking
We are entering an increasingly dangerous period of our history. But I'm an optimist.
Stephen Hawking
I don't fear God- I fear His believers.
Stephen Hawking
I believe everyone should have a broad picture of how the universe operates and our place in it. It is a basic human desire. And it also puts our worries in perspective.
Stephen Hawking
We live in the most probable of all possible worlds.
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
Perhaps we could write code to optimize code, then run that code through the code optimizer?
Stephen Hawking
We should seek the greatest value of our action.
Stephen Hawking
A picture is worth a thousand words...and uses up a thousand times the memory.
Stephen Hawking
I'm very interested in film making. It's telling a story, fiction or non-fiction. I have been filmed quite a lot. Contrary to popular belief, filming isn't glamorous. It can be wearingly repetitious, as the same shot is taken over and over again.
Stephen Hawking
However difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at.
Stephen Hawking
I'm not afraid of death, but I'm in no hurry to die. I have so much I want to do first.
Stephen Hawking
To my mathematical brain, the numbers alone make thinking about aliens perfectly rational.
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
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
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
Over a very small number of rolls of the dice, the uncertainty principle is very important.
Stephen Hawking
To boldly go where no one has gone before
Stephen Hawking
It was recently discovered that research causes cancer in rats.
Stephen Hawking
One cannot really argue with a mathematical theorem.
