Motivating Thoughts of Stephen Hawkings

• While physics and mathematics may tell us how the universe began, they are not much use in predicting human behavior because there are far too many equations to solve. I'm no better than anyone else at understanding what makes people tick, particularly women.• There are too many accidents that can befall life on a single planet. • No one undertakes research in physics with the intention of winning a prize. It is the joy of discovering something no one knew before. • “My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all.”—Stephen Hawking
