"It is not clear that intelligence has any long-term survival value." ― Stephen Hawking Topic(s): Intelligence More From Stephen Hawking "Science predicts that many different kinds of universe will be spontaneously created out of nothing. It is a matter of chance which we are in." "The whole history of science has been the gradual realization that events do not happen in an arbitrary manner, but that they reflect a certain underlying order, which may or may not be divinely inspired." "People won’t have time for you if you are always angry or complaining."

We knew that two al Qaeda operatives who ultimately participated in the 9/11 disaster were in the United States. We didn’t find them."― Richard Ben-Veniste "The first method for estimating the intelligence of a ruler is to look at the men he has around him."― Niccolo Machiavelli
