Ten years on the moon could tell us more about the universe than a thousand years on the earth might be able to.
Isaac Asimov
If we can find a theory of everything, it would be the ultimate triumph of human reason - for then we would know the mind of God.
Stephen Hawking
There is no conflict between science and religion. Science is a way of knowing what is true. Religion is a way of knowing what is good.
One of the basic rules of the universe is that nothing is perfect. Perfection is boring.
My advice for anyone who feels hopeless is to keep looking up. There are stars and stories and the people you love who love you back.
The universe is not merely perplexing, it provokes our deepest wonder.
Look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see, and wonder about what makes the universe exist.
There is a fundamental difference between religion, which is based on authority, and science, which is based on observation and reason.
Isn't the whole point of existence to keep asking questions?
The universe is not random. It is governed by laws which can be discovered.
We are each free to believe what we want, and it's my view that the simplest explanation is that there is no God.
Because there is an edge to time and space, it means the universe cannot be infinite in either space or time.
The more we know about the universe, the more fascinating it becomes.
If you can't simplify and explain things in simple terms, you don't really understand them.
My goal is to understand the universe completely, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.
