3 quotes from The Universe in a Nutshell

  • "The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge."
  • "We are just an advanced breed of monkeys on a minor planet of a very average star. But we have a chance to understand the universe."
  • "The universe does not have the same structure that it had in the past; it is always evolving, and it is not static."

Author : Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking was widely regarded as one of the greatest theoretical physicists since Albert Einstein. He held the position of Lucas professor, one of the most prestigious academic posts in the world, at Cambridge for many years. Former holders before Hawking were all giants of science, like Isaac Newton and Paul Dirac. Hawking’s life is legendary. Suffering from a rare disease, he had to live in a wheelchair for most of his life, but the disease never destroyed him. Instead, he made extraordinary accomplishments in the field of theoretical physics with great courage and intelligence and left his mark in the history of science.
