Stephen Hawking
One should love animals. They are so tasty.
Stephen Hawking
Evolution has ensured that our brains just aren't equipped to visualise 11 dimensions directly. However, from a purely mathematical point of view it's just as easy to think in 11 dimensions, as it is to think in three or four.
Stephen Hawking
It was recently discovered that research causes cancer in rats.
