Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking
Once I wept for I had no shoes. Then I met a man with no feet, so I took his shoes. I mean, it wasn't as if he was going to need them.
Stephen Hawking
The wise never marry, and when they marry they become otherwise.
Stephen Hawking
The intelligent beings in these regions should therefore not be surprised if they observe that their locality in the universe satisfies the conditions that are necessary for their existence. It is a bit like a rich person living in a wealthy neighborhood not seeing any poverty.
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
A zero-gravity flight is a first step toward space travel.
Stephen Hawking
All my adult life people have been helping me.
Stephen Hawking
