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
Scientists have become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge.
Stephen Hawking
Many people do not like the idea that time has a beginning, probably because it smacks of divine intervention.
Stephen Hawking
Nothing cannot exist forever.
Stephen Hawking
It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival value.
Stephen Hawking
In effect, we have redefined the task of science to be the discovery of laws that will enable us to predict events up to the limits set by the uncertainty principle.
Stephen Hawking
So remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and hold on to that childlike wonder about what makes the universe exist.
Stephen Hawking
It often happens that I have an idea, but then I try to fill in the intermediate steps and find they don't work, so I have to give it up.
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
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
If everything in the universe depends upon everything else in a fundamental way, it might be impossible to get close to a full solution by investigating parts of the problem in isolation.
Stephen Hawking
I like physics, but I love cartoons.
Stephen Hawking
Go the extra mile. It makes your boss look like an incompetent slacker.
Stephen Hawking
Science makes God unnecessary.
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
Real science can be far stranger than science fiction and much more satisfying.
Stephen Hawking
We won't know for a few years.
Stephen Hawking
There is a very real danger that we will kill everything on this planet now that we have the technological power to do so.
Stephen Hawking
We've created life in our own image.
Stephen Hawking
I am damned if I'm going to die before I have unraveled more of the universe
