We Quotes

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

Lost wealth may be replaced by industry, lost knowledge by study, lost health by temperance or medicine, but lost time is gone forever Picture Quote #1

An intense anticipation itself transforms possibility into reality; our desires being often but precursors of the things which we are capable of performing Picture Quote #1

The battle of life is, in most cases, fought uphill; and to win it without a struggle were perhaps to win it without honor. If there were no difficulties there would be no success; if there were nothing to struggle for, there would be nothing to be achieved Picture Quote #1

Though an inheritance of acres may be bequeathed, an inheritance of knowledge and wisdom cannot. The wealthy man may pay others for doing his work for him; but it is impossible to get his thinking done for him by another, or to purchase any kind of self-culture Picture Quote #1

Cheerfulness is also an excellent wearing quality. It has been called the bright weather of the heart Picture Quote #1

Necessity is always the first stimulus to industry, and those who conduct it with prudence, perseverance and energy will rarely fail. Viewed in this light, the necessity of labor is not a chastisement, but a blessing, the very root and spring of all that we call progress in individuals and civilization in nations Picture Quote #1

Although genius always commands admiration, character most secures respect. The former is more the product of the brain, the latter of heart-power; and in the long run it is the heart that rules in life Picture Quote #1

Anthropologists are a connecting link between poets and scientists; though their field-work among primitive peoples has often made them forget the language of science Picture Quote #1

If I were a girl, I'd despair. The supply of good women far exceeds that of the men who deserve them Picture Quote #1

Take your delight in momentariness, walk between dark and dark - a shining space with the grave's narrowness, though not its peace Picture Quote #1
