More quotes by Stephen Hawking
The question is: is the way the universe began chosen by God for reasons we can't understand, or was it determined by a law of science? I believe the second. If you like, you can call the laws of science 'God', but it wouldn't be a personal God that you could meet, and ask questions.
Stephen Hawking
Many people do not like the idea that time has a beginning, probably because it smacks of divine intervention.
Stephen Hawking
In fact, if one considers the possible constants and laws that could have emerged, the odds against a universe that produced life like ours are immense.
Stephen Hawking
The universe does not behave according to our pre-conceived ideas. It continues to surprise us.
Stephen Hawking
I would like nuclear fusion to become a practical power source. It would provide an inexhaustible supply of energy, without pollution or global warming.
Stephen Hawking
Half the battle is just showing up.
Stephen Hawking
Working with my father [Stephen Hawking ] is a great thrill - he has the amazing ability to hold enormous amounts of information in his head.
Stephen Hawking
If aliens visit us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn't turn out well for the Native Americans.
Stephen Hawking
If you lined up all the cars in the world end to end, someone would try to pass them.
Stephen Hawking
Theology is unnecessary.
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
Among physicists, I'm respected I hope.
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
So long as the Universe had a beginning, we could suppose it had a creator. But if the Universe is really completely self-contained, it would have neither beginning or end, it would simply be. What place then for a creator?
Stephen Hawking
Nothing is better than reading and gaining more and more knowledge.
Stephen Hawking
There are no black holes - in the sense of regimes from which light can't escape to infinity. There are however apparent horizons which persist for a period of time.
Stephen Hawking
Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.
Stephen Hawking
We shouldn't be surprised that conditions in the universe are suitable for life, but this is not evidence that the universe was designed to allow for life. We could call order by the name of God, but it would be an impersonal God. There's not much personal about the laws of physics.
Stephen Hawking
I have so much that I want to do. I hate wasting time.
Stephen Hawking
I believe things cannot make themselves impossible.
