Stephen Hawking

I’m really easy to get along with once you see it my way.

Stephen Hawking

I’ve noticed that even people who believe in fate look both ways before crossing the street.

Stephen Hawking

It is a waste of time to be angry about my disability. One has to get on with life and I haven’t done badly. People won’t have time for you if you are always angry or complaining.

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

It matters if you don’t just give up.

Stephen Hawking

It surprises me how disinterested we are today about things like physics, space, the universe and philosophy of our existence, our purpose, our final destination. Its a crazy world out there. Be curious.

Stephen Hawking

Keeping an active mind has been vital to my survival, as has been maintaining a sense of humor.

Stephen Hawking

My advice to other disabled people would be, concentrate on things your disability doesn’t prevent you doing well, and don’t regret the things it interferes with. Don’t be disabled in spirit as well as physically.

Stephen Hawking

My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.

Stephen Hawking

Not only does God play dice, but… he sometimes throws them where they cannot be seen.
