Stephen Hawking citáty
page 3

Stephen William Hawking je jeden z popredných svetových teoretických fyzikov. Hawking je od roku 1979 lucasiánsky profesor matematiky na univerzite v Cambridge a vedecký pracovník na katedre Gonville a Caius tej istej univerzity. Skutočnosť, že zastáva tento post napriek takmer celkovej pracovnej neschopnosti kvôli amyotrofnej laterálnej skleróze, z neho urobila svetovú hviezdu. 8. januára 2009 bol emeritovaný, nakoľko dosiahne dôchodkový vek 67 rokov.

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.

„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.“

„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.”

“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.”

"The Quantum State of the Universe", Nuclear Physics (1984) <!-- B239, p. 258 -->
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.

“Women. They are a complete mystery.”

“The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance. It is the illusion of knowledge.”

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)

“I am discounting reports of UFOs. Why would they appear only to cranks and weirdos?”

As quoted in a TED talk, " Asking Big Questions about the Universe http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/242"

“I have hardly ever known a mathematician who was able to reason.”

“Galileo, perhaps more than any other single person, was responsible for the birth of modern science.”

“Science could predict that the universe must have had a beginning.”

Stephen Hawking kniha Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays

Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays (1993)

“Evolution has ensured that our brains just aren't equipped to visualise 11 dimensions directly. However, from a purely mathematical point of view it's just as easy to think in 11 dimensions, as it is to think in three or four.”

As quoted in "Return of the time lord" in The Guardian http://books.guardian.co.uk/departments/scienceandnature/story/0,6000,1579384,00.html (27 September 2005)

“I used to think that information was destroyed in black holes. But the AdS/CFT correspondence led me to change my mind. This was my biggest blunder, or at least my biggest blunder in science.”

"Stephen Hawking at 70: Exclusive interview" http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg21328460.500-stephen-hawking-at-70-exclusive-interview.html in New Scientist, (4 January 2012). In his comment that he "used to think that information was destroyed in black holes", he is referring to the black hole information paradox.

“I regard [the many worlds interpretation] as self-evidently correct. [T. F.: Yet some don't find it evident to themselves. ] Yeah, well, there are some people who spend an awful lot of time talking about the interpretation of quantum mechanics. My attitude — I would paraphrase Goering—is that when I hear of Schrödinger's cat, I reach for my gun.”

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."'.
