There are grounds for cautious optimism that we may now be near the end ofthe search for the ultimate laws of nature. – Stephen Hawking
I enjoy all forms of music – pop, classical and opera. – Stephen Hawking
It is generally recognised that women are better than men at languages, personal relations and multi-tasking, but less good at map-reading and spatial awareness. It is therefore not unreasonable to suppose that women might be less good at mathematics and physics. – Stephen Hawking
Scientists have become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge. – Stephen Hawking
It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival value. – Stephen Hawking
The whole history of science has been the gradual realization that events do not happen in an arbitrary manner, but that they reflect a certain underlying order, which may or may not be divinely inspired. – Stephen Hawking
I believe in universal health care. And I am not afraid to say so. – Stephen Hawking
It is no good getting furious if you get stuck. What I do is keep thinking about the problem but work on something else. Sometimes it is years before I see the way forward. In the case of information loss and black holes, it was 29 years. – Stephen Hawking

God not only plays dice, He also sometimes throws the dice where they cannot be seen. – Stephen Hawking
Not only does God play dice, but… he sometimes throws them where they cannot be seen. – Stephen Hawking
My work and my family are very important to me. – Stephen Hawking
There is no heaven or afterlife for broken-down computers that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark. – Stephen Hawking
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. – Stephen Hawking
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. – Stephen Hawking
Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change. – Stephen Hawking
Most sets of values would give rise to universes that, although they might be very beautiful, would contain no one able to wonder at that beauty. – Stephen Hawking
The radiation left over from the Big Bang is the same as that in your microwave oven but very much less powerful. It would heat your pizza only to minus 271.3*C – not much good for defrosting the pizza, let alone cooking it. – Stephen Hawking
We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. – Stephen Hawking
