More quotes by Stephen Hawking
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing.
Stephen Hawking
Scientists have become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge.
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
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
If you lined up all the cars in the world end to end, someone would try to pass them.
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
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
Using e-mail, I can communicate with scientists all over the world.
Stephen Hawking
I am just a child who has never grown up. I still keep asking these 'how' and 'why' questions. Occasionally, I find an answer.
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
Perhaps we could write code to optimize code, then run that code through the code optimizer?
Stephen Hawking
Physics as we know it will be over in six months - Max Born
Stephen Hawking
The large-scale homogeneity of the universe makes it very difficult to believe that the structure of the universe is determined by anything so peripheral as some complicated molecular structure on a minor planet orbiting a very average star in the outer suburbs of a fairly typical galaxy.
Stephen Hawking
One can't predict the weather more than a few days in advance.
Stephen Hawking
If one is physically disabled, one cannot afford to be psychologically disabled as well.
Stephen Hawking
Science is not only a disciple of reason but, also, one of romance and passion.
Stephen Hawking
Only time - whatever that may be - will tell.
Stephen Hawking
There could be whole antiworlds and antipeople made out of antiparticles. However, if you ever meet your antiself, don't shake hands! You would both vanish in a great flash of light.
Stephen Hawking
Never put off the work till tomorrow what you can put off today.
Stephen Hawking
Our only chance of long-term survival is not to remain lurking on planet Earth, but to spread out into space.
Stephen Hawking
