We Quotes

Three little maids from school are we, pert as a school-girl well can be, filled to the brim with girlish glee Picture Quote #1

I still believe that if your aim is to change the world, journalism is a more immediate short-term weapon 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

Corporations may lesser commonwealths in the bowels of a greater, like worms in the entrails of a natural man Picture Quote #1

I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road 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

There is a real danger that computers will develop intelligence and take over. We urgently need to develop direct connections to the brain so that computers can add to human intelligence rather than be in opposition 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

The world has changed far more in the past 100 years than in any other century in history. The reason is not political or economic but technological - technologies that flowed directly from advances in basic science 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 think that it's important for scientists to explain their work, particularly in cosmology. This now answers many questions once asked of religion Picture Quote #1

The victim should have the right to end his life, if he wants. But I think it would be a great mistake. However bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While there's life, there is hope Picture Quote #1

The downside of my celebrity is that I cannot go anywhere in the world without being recognized. It is not enough for me to wear dark sunglasses and a wig. The wheelchair gives me away 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

Bodies like the Earth are not made to move on curved orbits by a force called gravity; instead, they follow the nearest thing to a straight path in a curved space, which is called a geodesic. A geodesic is the shortest (or longest) path between two nearby points 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

All the evidence shows that God was actually quite a gambler, and the universe is a great casino, where dice are thrown, and roulette wheels spin on every occasion. Over a large number of bets, the odds even out and we can make predictions; that's why casino owners are so rich. But over a very small number of rolls of the dice, the uncertainty principle is very important Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

There's a gigantic gray area between good moral behavior and outright felonious activities. I call that the Weasel Zone and it's where most of life happens Picture Quote #1

I love those hockey moms. You know what they say the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull is? Lipstick Picture Quote #1

Each of us knows that we have an obligation to care for the old, the young and the sick. We stand strongest when we stand with the weakest among us Picture Quote #1

Hope is the companion of power, and the mother of success; for who so hopes has within him the gift of miracles Picture Quote #1
