"Philosophers have not kept up with modern developments in science. Particularly physics." ― Stephen Hawking Topic(s): Science More From Stephen Hawking "I have noticed even people who claim everything is predestined, and that we can do nothing to change it, look before they cross the road." "It is no good getting furious if you get stuck. What I do is keep thinking about the problem but work on something else. Sometimes it is years before I see the way forward. In the case of information loss and black holes, it was 29 years." "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." More In Science "Science has explained nothing; the more we know the more fantastic the world becomes and the profounder the surrounding darkness."― Aldous Huxley "Experimental science is fascinating, but I don’t want to do it. I want other people to do it, and I’ll read about it."― Barbara Ehrenreich "People are patronizing the theatres with renewed enthusiasm – there is an entire picnic-like attitude when families go out to see movies, which is a very good sign. They want to see larger-than-life characters on the big screen and not just watch movies on television or on DVDs."― Salman Khan
