The laws of science do not distinguish between the past and the future. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The lesson of the book is that the universe is governed by the laws of science. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
If you believe in science, like I do, you believe that there are certain laws that are always obeyed. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
“A scientific law is not a scientific law, if it holds only when some supernatural being decides not to intervene” — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
We could call order by the name of God, but it would be an impersonal God. There's not much personal about the… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
I think the universe was spontaneously created out of nothing, according to the laws of science. It has no beginning and no… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
So great a contribution to physics was Two New Sciences that scholars have long maintained that the book anticipated Isaac Newton's laws… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
In real time, the universe has a beginning and an end at singularities that form a boundary to space-time and at which… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
One can't prove that God doesn't exist. But science makes God unnecessary. The laws of physics can explain the universe without the… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
In fact, if one considers the possible constants and laws that could have emerged, the odds against a universe that produced life… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
One does not have to appeal to God to set the initial conditions for the creation of the universe, but if one… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
In effect, we have redefined the task of science to be the discovery of laws that will enable us to predict events… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
There is no physical law precluding particles from being organised in ways that perform even more advanced computations than the arrangements of… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
I'm not religious in the normal sense. I believe the universe is governed by the laws of science. The laws may have… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The question is: is the way the universe began chosen by God for reasons we can't understand, or was it determined by… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
Because there is a law such as gravity, the Universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The initial configuration of the universe may have been chosen by God, or it may itself have been determined by the laws… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The laws of science, as we know them at present, contain many fundamental numbers, like the size of the electric charge of… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
What could define God, [is thinking of God] as the embodiment of the laws of nature. However, this is not what most… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The universe and the Laws of Physics seem to have been specifically designed for us. If any one of about 40 physical… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
I think the next [21st] century will be the century of complexity. We have already discovered the basic laws that govern matter… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
Though we feel we can choose what we do, our understanding of the molecular basis of biology shows that biological processes are… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
In A Brief History Of Time I used the word "God" like Einstein did as a shorthand for the laws of physics.… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
Just like a computer, we must remember things in the order in which entropy increases. This makes the second law of thermodynamics… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
We shouldn't be surprised that conditions in the universe are suitable for life, but this is not evidence that the universe was… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The doctor who diagnosed me with ALS, or motor neuron disease, told me that it would kill me in two or three years. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
We are the product of quantum fluctuations in the very early universe. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The human race does not have a very good record of intelligent behavior. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
“We have finally found something that doesn’t have a cause, because there was no time for a cause to exist in. For me this… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
[On President Bush's plan to get to Mars in 10 years] Stupid. Robots would do a better job and be much cheaper because you… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
I believe the simplest explanation is, there is no God. No one created the universe and no one directs our fate. This leads me… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The Paralympic Games is about transforming our perception of the world. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
The increase of disorder or entropy is what distinguishes the past from the future, giving a direction to time. — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
Most sets of values would give rise to universes that, although they might be very beautiful, would contain no one able to wonder at… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
There is a fundamental difference between religion, which is based on authority, and science, which is based on observation and reason. Science will win… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
“In the eighteenth century, philosophers considered the whole of human knowledge, including science, to be their field and discussed questions such as: Did the… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
A model is a good model if first it interprets a wide range of observations in terms of a simple and elegant model, and… — Stephen Hawking Copy Share Image
