More quotes by Stephen Hawking
I want to encourage public interest in space. I have never let my condition stop me. You only live once.
Stephen Hawking
Before we understand science, it is natural to believe that God created the universe. But now science offers a more convincing explanation.
Stephen Hawking
If what we regard as real depends on our theory, how can we make reality the basis of our philosophy? But we cannot distinguish what is real about the universe without a theory. It makes no sense to ask if it corresponds to reality, because we do not know what reality is independent of a theory.
Stephen Hawking
Half the battle is just showing up.
Stephen Hawking
A few years ago, the city council of Monza, Italy, barred pet owners from keeping goldfish in curved bowls... saying that it is cruel to keep a fish in a bowl with curved sides because, gazing out, the fish would have a distorted view of reality. But how do we know we have the true, undistorted picture of reality?
Stephen Hawking
It was recently discovered that research causes cancer in rats.
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

Stephen Hawking
Science is not only a disciple of reason but, also, one of romance and passion.
Stephen Hawking

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
I’m not religious in the normal sense. I believe the universe is governed by the laws of science. The laws may have been decreed by God, but God does not intervene to break the laws.
Stephen Hawking
Computers double their performance every month.
Stephen Hawking
thus, in a sense, we are all doomed. even if we stay away from black holes
Stephen Hawking
More often than politicians, but not as often as they should.
Stephen Hawking
It matters if you don't just give up.
Stephen Hawking
The human capacity for guilt is such that people can always find ways to blame themselves
Stephen Hawking
A lot of prizes have been awarded for showing the universe is not as simple as we might have thought.
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
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.
