Stephen Hawking Citáty o vesmíre
„Môj cieľ je prostý. Je to úplné chápanie vesmíru, prečo je taký aký je a prečo vôbec existuje.“
My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all. (en)

Varianta: Najväčším nepriateľom poznania nie je ignorancia, je ním ilúzia poznania.

Varianta: Takže Einstein sa mýlil, keď povedal „Boh nehrá kocky.“ Uvažovanie o čiernych dierach nasvedčuje, že Boh nielenže hrá kocky, ale občas ich hádže aj tam, kde ich nikto nemôže vidieť.
„Sotva som niekedy poznal matematika, ktorý bol schopný odôvodňovať.“
I have hardly ever known a mathematician who was able to reason. (en)

„Takže Einstein sa mýlil, keď povedal „Boh nehrá kocky.““
Uvažovanie o čiernych dierach nasvedčuje, že Boh nielenže hrá kocky, ale občas ich hádže aj tam, kde ich nikto nemôže vidieť.
So Einstein was wrong when he said "God does not play dice". Consideration of black holes suggests, not only that God does play dice, but that He sometimes confuses us by throwing them where they can't be seen. (en)

Stephen Hawking: Citáty v angličtine
“Disorder increases with time because we measure time in the direction in which disorder increases.”
Stephen Hawking kniha A Brief History of Time
Zdroj: A Brief History of Time (1988), Ch. 9
Kontext: Just like a computer, we must remember things in the order in which entropy increases. This makes the second law of thermodynamics almost trivial. Disorder increases with time because we measure time in the direction in which disorder increases. You can’t have a safer bet than that!
“God abhors a naked singularity.”

Kontext: Many people would claim that the boundary conditions are not part of physics but belong to metaphysics or religion. They would claim that nature had complete freedom to start the universe off any way it wanted. That may be so, but it could also have made it evolve in a completely arbitrary and random manner. Yet all the evidence is that it evolves in a regular way according to certain laws. It would therefore seem reasonable to suppose that there are also laws governing the boundary conditions.

Sometimes attributed to Hawking without a source, but originally from historian Daniel J. Boorstin. It appears in different forms in The Discoverers (1983), Cleopatra's Nose (1995), and introduction to The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (1995)

In his comment that he "used to think that information was destroyed in black holes", he is referring to the black hole information paradox.
Heard in person by this contributor when Hawking showed-up in a Caltech physics class taught by Robert Christy in 1980 or '81; when asked about collapse of the state-vector he whispered to his assistant Chris (surname unknown) something at which point Chris stood up and said 'Stephen is paraphrasing Herman Göring by saying "When I hear the words 'Schrödinger's Cat' I reach for my gun."'. <br class="br">Zdroj: In a conversation with Timothy Ferris (4 April 1983), as quoted in The Whole Shebang (1998) by Timothy Ferris, p. 345 http://books.google.com/books?id=qjYbQ7EBAKwC&lpg=PA345&ots=F6VWymjiPx&dq=%22reach%20for%20my%20revolver%22%20hawking%20-%22oft-made%22&pg=PA345#v=onepage&q=%22reach%20for%20my%20revolver%22%20hawking%20-%22oft-made%22&f=false
