One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it. Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

The human race is just a chem...

The human race is just a chemical scum on a moderate-sized planet, orbiting around a very average star in the outer suburb of one among a hundred billion galaxies. We are so insignificant that I can't believe the whole universe exists for our benefit. That would be like saying that you would disappear if I closed my eyes.

Wagner manages to convey emotion with music better than anyone, before or since.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

Some people would claim that ...

Some people would claim that things like love, joy and beauty belong to a different category from science and can't be described in scientific terms, but I think they can now be explained by the theory of evolution.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

My father was a research scie...

My father was a research scientist in tropical medicine, so I always assumed I would be a scientist, too. I felt that medicine was too vague and inexact, so I chose physics.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

There are plenty of dead scie...

There are plenty of dead scientists I admire, but I can't think of any living ones. This is probably because it is only in retrospect that one can see who made the important contributions.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

I was never top of the class ...

I was never top of the class at school, but my classmates must have seen potential in me, because my nickname was 'Einstein.'

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

I'm never any good in the morning. It is only after four in the afternoon that I get going.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

I entered the health care debate in response to a statement in the United States press in summer 2009 which claimed the National Health Service in Great Britain would have killed me off, were I a British citizen. I felt compelled to make a statement to explain the error.

My ideal role would be a baddie in a James Bond film. I think the wheelchair and the computer voice would fit the part.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

If we want to travel into the future, we just need to go fast. Really fast. And I think the only way we're ever likely to do that is by going into space.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

I have wanted to fly into space for many years, but never imagined it would really be feasible.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

It's time to commit to finding the answer, to search for life beyond Earth. Mankind has a deep need to explore, to learn, to know. We also happen to be sociable creatures. It is important for us to know if we are alone in the dark.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

So Einstein was wrong when he...

So Einstein was wrong when he said, "God does not play dice." Consideration of black holes suggests, not only that God does play dice, but that he sometimes confuses us by throwing them where they can't be seen.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

Mankind's greatest achievemen...

Mankind's greatest achievements have come about by talking and its greatest failures by not talking. It doesn’t have to be like this.

Doing a job RIGHT the first time gets the job done. Doing the job WRONG fourteen times gives you job security.

Go the extra mile. It makes your boss look like an incompetent slacker.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn't prevent you doing well, and don't regret the things it interferes with. Don't be disabled in spirit, as well as physically.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

Some forms of motor neuron disease are genetically linked, but I have no indication that my kind is. No other member of my family has had it. But I would be in favour of abortion if there was a high risk.

Stephen Hawking 456 quotes

The Planck satellite may detect the imprint of the gravitational waves predicted by inflation. This would be quantum gravity written across the sky.
