More quotes by Stephen Hawking
I think the human race doesn't have a future if we don't go into space. We need to expand our horizons beyond planet Earth if we are to have a long-term future. We cannot remain looking inward at ourselves on a small and increasingly polluted and overcrowded planet. We need to look outward to the wider universe.
Stephen Hawking
If any one of about 40 physical qualities had more than slightly different values, life as we know it could not exist.
Stephen Hawking
Not to leave planet Earth would be like castaways on a desert island not trying to escape...Sending humans to other planets ... will shape the future of the human race in ways we don't yet understand, and may determine whether we have any future at all.
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
I'm very interested in film making. It's telling a story, fiction or non-fiction. I have been filmed quite a lot. Contrary to popular belief, filming isn't glamorous. It can be wearingly repetitious, as the same shot is taken over and over again.
Stephen Hawking
Humanities deepest desire for knowledge is justification enough for continuing our quest. and our goal is nothing less than a complete description of the universe we live in.
Stephen Hawking
When I was young, Stephen Hawking wasn't the world's most famous physicist. The fame didn't arrive until the publication of A Brief History of Time, by which time I was in my late teens. When I was a child, he was well known among physicists, but they are a fairly select, serious bunch, not much given to celebrity idolizing.
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
Science makes God unnecessary.
Stephen Hawking
The laws of science, as we know them at present, contain many fundamental numbers, like the size of the electric charge of the electron and the ratio of the masses of the proton and the electron .... The remarkable fact is that the values of these numbers seem to have been finely adjusted to make possible the development of life.
Stephen Hawking
Never put off the work till tomorrow what you can put off today.
Stephen Hawking
If one is physically disabled, one cannot afford to be psychologically disabled as well.
Stephen Hawking
It is said that there's no such thing as a free lunch. But the universe is the ultimate free lunch.
Stephen Hawking
If we ever do find a complete theory of the universe, it would be a great triumph of human reason but it wouldn't leave much for us to do. We need an intellectual challenge.
Stephen Hawking
One can't prove that God doesn't exist. But science makes God unnecessary. The laws of physics can explain the universe without the need for a creator.
Stephen Hawking
What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise.
Stephen Hawking
It is reasonable to ask who or what created the universe, but if the answer is God, then the question has merely been deflected to that of who created God.
Stephen Hawking
We live in the most probable of all possible worlds.
Stephen Hawking
Save water. Shower with your girlfriend.
Stephen Hawking
One cannot really argue with a mathematical theorem.
