65 Stephen Hawking Quotes
When humanity gets rid of aggression, it will solve the world’s problems.
Having a hard time? Well, there always comes a time when there’s something you have to do and you succeed at.
Stephen Hawking is a theoretical physicist. He has been very busy in his research in the field of physics. His research work includes black holes and big bang as well as blackholes.
My name is Stephen Hawking, and I like numbers.
I know people are really crazy about how I solved the big question of relativity.
But that’s not the fun part, like watching movies.
You can do that with me.
We found out that we are in a galaxy, and our galaxy is inside of an even bigger galaxy of thousands of galaxies of stars and planets and galaxies. Most of those galaxies are outside of the Milky Way. Some of them are within our galaxy.
In the world of AI, if intelligence is defined as the ability to learn from experience, then AI can learn from any experience, like the past or the future. It is not bound by the limitations of human experience. It can learn a lot about the universe and about how humans behave in the universe, and can learn how to control the future, or even the past, by controlling the AI learning processes.
Life isn’t tragic, but being alive seems to be a challenge to figure out how to be happy.
God, like all of us, enjoys playing dice and sometimes throws them in a way that will not be seen by us.
9th of 65 Stephen Hawking Quotes
There are so many people coming into the world, and so little space and resources to go around. If we continue to grow at this rate, we are going to have a hard time keeping up with the changes.
It will be exciting when we can understand dark matter and dark energy. Hawking used to use the term “theory of everything”, even though this does not seem a very accurate description of the Standard Model of particle physics.
Stephen Hawking is very careful with his identity. He is well known in the academic world. He also is well known for his handicap. I don’t want to say much more.
If we consider all the earth’s species, then even though they all belong to the same species, they have very distinct characteristics and are adapted to their environments in very different ways.
Stephen Hawking is a brilliant scientist who died last year. He did a lot of work on black holes, and he thought the Internet was a good metaphor for the brain.
Hawking was speaking about an advanced AI robot, but his general point could apply to any advanced robot. An advanced AI robot could be the best friend possible for a human.
Life, and everything in it, is a series in motion. It is not just a random sequence of events, but a great big, complicated machine. And if you stare at it long enough – maybe even look within – there are answers, you just have to look for them.
Stephen Hawking is a very smart guy. He knows IQ is not the main measure. He has achieved a lot.
17th of 65 Stephen Hawking Quotes
I know you’re tired and I know it’s hard and I know you’re scared of dying and I know we never know what’s going to happen in this life. But I promise you that I’m going to try. The thing I want to do is to have fun. That is the only thing I’m scared of.
Stephen Hawking said that when he was at school, the brightest people did math and physics, while the less bright people did physics and chemistry. I wanted to be a mathematician but my father said I should do chemistry because he thought there would be no jobs for mathematicians.
The words that you speak are all that’s good in your life. They are the reason why you’re alive. They affect you, they change you, they shape you. A little bit of a difference can change your life. Keep speaking up. Keep asking the question. Keep saying what you believe in.
The universe is expanding at a speed that’s accelerating. This means that it’s getting bigger faster than it was in the past. Most people think the universe began because of some big bang explosion, like a cosmic explosion. I think the truth is more complicated. As the universe gets older, it gets cooler. Cooler means smaller. And smaller means more compact. And compact means there was less space for things to spread in. So, even though the universe has been around a really long time, it’s actually getting smaller.
My own philosophy is to learn and learn and learn, and then learn some more.
Stephen Hawking said that people who boast about their intelligence are losers.
Science has answered a lot of the questions of cosmology, but the true nature of dark matter and dark energy are still unknown. The questions remain unanswered…
The universe is a complex place. If you try and understand it, at the risk of making yourself dizzy, it will repay you
with a profound understanding of
its own weirdness. And in the
meantime, be curious, and however
difficult life may seem, there is
always something you can do, and
succeed at. It matters that you
don’t just give up.
26th of 65 Stephen Hawking Quotes
People are the most complex structures, so it’s no wonder that the universe that we live in is so complex.
While I agree that life has appeared on Earth as well the universe and therefor it seems likely that there is life elsewhere, I’d like to note that even if there are intelligent beings out in the universe, and I suspect there are, that there is nothing special about the Earth to make intelligent life more likely. Maybe our sun is weird. Maybe our solar system is weird. Maybe we happened to be near a star where life first occurred and that makes us lucky.
I have noticed that even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road.
Stephen Hawking believes that Superman is a bad influence since he is all powerful, doesn’t care about anyone’s feelings, and doesn’t have much sense of humor.
Stephen Hawking said that intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.
When I was young, I was told that the future is something that you should not think of. Then I realized that the future was something that you should think of. By thinking about the future, we will be able to create a better future, and the future will become a reality.

This book is really good. I think its not as good as “The Elegant Universe” but its a good book.
If you want people to listen to you, you should think about how to make them want to listen to you.
Some people would claim that love and compassion are things that 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.
This is the paraphrase I came up with in my first try:
Some people would claim that love and compassion are things that 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.
I find this to be quite true. If you have an idea of how the universe behaves, then you will likely be disappointed.
Hawking believed that human beings were a combination of science and spirit. There was a lot of science and technology that Hawking used to try and explain the world around him. He also had a lot of spirit. Hawking believed that humans were meant to adapt and survive.
I think they might exist in massive ships, having used up all the resources from their home planet. Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach. If the aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn’t turn out very well for the Native Americans.
Hawking said that he used to be an atheist but that he came to believe in God when he visited the Vatican and saw the statues of the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ.
Hawking thinks that there’s nothing that can stop the human race from achieving its goals.

I hate wasting time and I know that there is so much that I want to do. I make it a point to make time for what I want to do because I hate wasting time.
If the government is covering up knowledge of aliens, then they are doing a better job of it than they do at anything else.
When people complain or be angry, they can’t see the bigger picture. They can’t see the greater value of living and doing what they want to do.
Even though gravity is the weakest of four categories of forces, it is still the one that is responsible for the gravitational attraction between galaxies.
‘Don’t be disabled in spirit as well as physically’. It’s one thing to be disabled by the limitations of your condition and quite another to be disabled by the limitations of society.
The first is a challenge that can be overcome by people with all kinds of conditions. The second is a challenge that we still haven’t overcome.
If we had to choose only one source of inspiration for our life, it would have to be imperfection, not perfection. Without imperfection, we would never have created things like us, or would have created things like the stars.
People who are quiet have the brightest minds, no matter what the size of their brain.
Even in the event of major disasters it is in our best interest to keep the space station and other space- related activities going.
Astronauts are still needed to take care of the space station, even after all humans die.

Stephen Hawking says that time and space are infinite and that they are like the surface of the earth, but he imagines that they have a hidden extra dimension.
We are looking at ourselves, all of us, and we are destroying our planet with our greed and our stupidity. We cannot remain looking inwards on ourselves on a small and increasingly polluted and overcrowded planet. We need a new generation of leaders, who will see the urgency of the changes we need to make and the importance of starting change right now.
DNA has evolved slowly, since it was first created, and we should be able to affect the evolutionary process. We could, for instance, change human characteristics such as height, eye color, or intelligence. But, it will probably take a very long time.
The government and its agencies should work best under public scrutiny. Otherwise, they can abuse any rule, law, or procedure they find.
Hawking said that the human race will survive in the next thousand years, but only in space.
I think that human made computer viruses can be compared to the DNA of human beings. If we know the structure of DNA and create a virus by copying it, then we can understand the functions of the virus and even control it. But if we don’t, there will be a new virus every time the body and environment change. So I think humans can never know the limit of their capability.
If aliens visited us, the outcome would be much as when Columbus landed in America, which didn’t turn out so well for the Native Americans.
I find it hard to see through my glass window. It makes me angry. I get stuck and don’t know what to do. If I have a lot of time, I try to think about something else. In the case of black holes, it was over 29 years.
Stephen Hawking was very active and maintained a sense of humor throughout his entire life. Also, it has been vital for his survival, as it has helped him keep his mind active and has helped him maintain his life.
59th of 65 Stephen Hawking Quotes
The scientific method is a tool that can uncover all of the answers to all of the questions in the universe. If we use the scientific method properly, we can use it to figure out our own existence.
So what is the scientific method? It is an approach that uses observation and experimentation to understand what is real. It then figures out what it is. And then it can figure out why it is. That is called a deductive scientific method. We don’t use the scientific method to try to find out if what we thought was real is real, but rather we use it to figure out the true nature of things.
As you can see, Stephen Hawking is one of the smartest people on the planet. He has been described as a “genius child” who “was born without a body, without a mind, and with a mind that understood more than any other child”.
I love science because it provides me with the opportunity to challenge the laws of nature, and to change them when I can.
As a scientist, Stephen Hawking recognizes that the potential of the human brain is far greater than that of the physical body and recognizes the importance of science and research in developing new treatments for neurodegenerative diseases that are currently incurable. He is an advocate of stem cell research.
I can’t understand the glories of the universe without believing there is some Supreme Intelligence behind it.
