More quotes by Stephen Hawking
Then we shall... be able to take part in the discussion of the question of why it is that we and the universe exist. If we find the answer to that, it would be the ultimate triumph of human reason - for then we would know the mind of God.
Stephen Hawking
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
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
Science could predict that the universe must have had a beginning.
Stephen Hawking
I don't think the human race will survive the next thousand years, unless we spread into space.
Stephen Hawking
My first popular book, 'A Brief History of Time,' aroused a great deal of interest, but many found it difficult to understand.
Stephen Hawking
If the government is covering up knowledge of aliens, they are doing a better job of it than they do at anything else.
Stephen Hawking
Nothing is fool-proof to a sufficiently talented fool.
Stephen Hawking
I don't have much positive to say about motor neuron disease, but it taught me not to pity myself because others were worse off, and to get on with what I still could do. I'm happier now than before I developed the condition.
Stephen Hawking
Quiet people have the loudest minds.
Stephen Hawking
What I have done is to show that it is possible for the way the universe began to be determined by the laws of science. In that case, it would not be necessary to appeal to God to decide how the universe began. This doesn't prove that there is no God, only that God is not necessary.
Stephen Hawking
I want to encourage public interest in space. I have never let my condition stop me. You only live once.
Stephen Hawking
Perhaps we could write code to optimize code, then run that code through the code optimizer?
Stephen Hawking
We each exist for but a short time, and in that time explore but a small part of the whole universe
Stephen Hawking
I was not a good student. I did not spend much time at college I was too busy enjoying myself.
Stephen Hawking
Keeping an active mind has been vital to my survival, as has been maintaining a sense of humor.
Stephen Hawking
We are only the temporary custodians of the particles which we are made of. They will go on to lead a future existence in the enormous universe that made them
Stephen Hawking
If you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away.
Stephen Hawking
I do not believe in a personal God.
Stephen Hawking
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing.
Stephen Hawking
