Us Quotes

That which you call your soul or spirit is your consciousness, and that which you call 'free will' is your mind's freedom to think or not, the only will you have, your only freedom, the choice that controls all the choices you make and determines your life and your character Picture Quote #1

I never blame myself when I'm not hitting. I just blame the bat and if it keeps up, I change bats. After all, if I know it isn't my fault that I'm not hitting, how can I get mad at myself? Picture Quote #1

When you're part of a team, you stand up for your teammates. Your loyalty is to them. You protect them through good and bad, because they'd do the same for you Picture Quote #1

To be an artist at all is like living in Switzerland during a world war. To be an artist in Zurich, in 1917, implies a degree of self-absorption that would have glazed over the eyes of Narcissus Picture Quote #1

Buddy Holly was twenty-two. Think of what he might have gone on to achieve. I mean, if Beethoven had been killed in a plane crash at twenty-two, the history of music would have been very different. As would the history of aviation, of course Picture Quote #1

We cross our bridges when we come to them and burn them behind us, with nothing to show for our progress except a memory of the smell of smoke, and a presumption that once our eyes watered Picture Quote #1

Moral philosophy is nothing else but the science of what is good, and evil, in the conversation, and society of mankind. Good, and evil, are names that signify our appetites, and aversions; which in different tempers, customs, and doctrines of men, are different Picture Quote #1

For a man's conscience and his judgement is the same thing; and as the judgement, so also the conscience may be erroneous Picture Quote #1

Intemperance is naturally punished with diseases; rashness, with mischance; injustice; with violence of enemies; pride, with ruin; cowardice, with oppression; and rebellion, with slaughter Picture Quote #1

Opinion of ghosts, ignorance of second causes, devotion to what men fear, and talking of things casual for prognostics, consisteth the natural seeds of religion Picture Quote #1

He who stands aloof runs the risk of believing himself better than others and misusing his critique of society as an ideology for his private interest Picture Quote #1

Truth is inseperable from the illusory belief that from the figures of the unreal one day, in spite of all, real deliverance will come Picture Quote #1

I used to think information was destroyed in black hole. This was my biggest blunder, or at least my biggest blunder in science Picture Quote #1

Science predicts that many different kinds of universe will be spontaneously created out of nothing. It is a matter of chance which we are in Picture Quote #1

The universe is governed by science. But science tells us that we can't solve the equations, directly in the abstract Picture Quote #1

Time travel used to be thought of as just science fiction, but Einstein's general theory of relativity allows for the possibility that we could warp space-time so much that you could go off in a rocket and return before you set out Picture Quote #1

We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we can understand the Universe. That makes us something very special Picture Quote #1

For millions of years, mankind lived just like the animals. Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imaginations, we learned to talk Picture Quote #1

If human life were long enough to find the ultimate theory, everything would have been solved by previous generations. Nothing would be left to be discovered Picture Quote #1

All my life, I have been fascinated by the big questions that face us, and have tried to find scientific answers to them Picture Quote #1

I don't think the human race will survive the next thousand years, unless we spread into space. There are too many accidents that can befall life on a single planet. But I'm an optimist. We will reach out to the stars Picture Quote #1

Evolution has ensured that our brains just aren't equipped to visualise 11 dimensions directly. However, from a purely mathematical point of view it's just as easy to think in 11 dimensions, as it is to think in three or four Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

In a world that is in chaos politically, socially and environmentally, how can the human race sustain another 100 years? Picture Quote #1

There is a fundamental difference between religion, which is based on authority and science, which is based on observation and reason. Science will win, because it works Picture Quote #1

Just like a computer, we must remember things in the order in which entropy increases. This makes the second law of thermodynamics almost trivial. Disorder increases with time because we measure time in the direction in which disorder increases. You can't have a safer bet than that! Picture Quote #1

Maybe that is our mistake: maybe there are no particle positions and velocities, but only waves. It is just that we try to fit the waves to our preconceived ideas of positions and velocities.The resulting mismatch is the cause of the apparent unpredictability Picture Quote #1

So next time someone complains that you have made a mistake, tell him that may be a good thing. Because without imperfection, neither you nor I would exist Picture Quote #1

There is no prescribed route to follow to arrive at a new idea. You have to make the intuitive leap. But the difference is that once you've made that intuitive leap you have to justify it by filling in the intermediate steps Picture Quote #1

Someone told me that each equation I included in my book would halve the sales. I did put in one equation, Einstein's famous equation, E = MC squared. I hope that this will not scare off half of my potential readers Picture Quote #1
