If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?
Time is a drug. Too much of it kills you.
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.
I'm sure the universe is full of intelligent life. It's just been too intelligent to come here.
In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
That which can be asserted without evidence, can be dismissed without evidence.
Everything must be made as simple as possible. But not simpler.
The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it.
If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants.
It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense; it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure.
Life would be tragic if it weren't funny.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Who is more humble? The scientist who looks at the universe with an open mind and accepts whatever the universe has to teach us, or somebody who says everything in this book must be considered the literal truth and never mind the fallibility of all the human beings involved?
In my opinion, we don't devote nearly enough scientific research to finding a cure for jerks.
Do you know what we call opinion in the absence of evidence? We call it prejudice.
If you try and take a cat apart to see how it works, the first thing you have on your hands is a non-working cat.
We are an impossibility in an impossible universe.
Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.
God does not play dice with the universe.
Science investigates; religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge, which is power; religion gives man wisdom, which is control. Science deals mainly with facts; religion deals mainly with values. The two are not rivals.
The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is at all comprehensible.
For, after all, how do we know that two and two make four? Or that the force of gravity works? Or that the past is unchangeable? If both the past and the external world exist only in the mind, and if the mind itself is controllable – what then?
I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail.
Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.
We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works.
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.
Let us try to teach generosity and altruism, because we are born selfish. Let us understand what our own selfish genes are up to, because we may then at least have the chance to upset their designs, something that no other species has ever aspired to do.
To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird's nest or a wildflower in spring — these are some of the rewards of the simple life.
A process cannot be understood by stopping it. Understanding must move with the flow of the process, must join it and flow with it.
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.
