If we do discover ordsprog

en If we do discover a complete theory, it should be in time understandable in broad principle by everyone . . . . Then we shall all, philosophers, scientists, and just ordinary people be able to take part in the discussion of why we and the universe exist.
  Stephen Hawking

en If you look at cosmology, which is the study of the origin of the universe, whatever begins to exist, has a cause. Scientists now believe, the universe must've had a cause. The implication of that cause must be very powerful, very intelligent, immaterial, and beyond time.

en When asked, 'What did God do before he created the universe?' St. Augustine didn´t reply, 'he was preparing Hell for people who asked such questions.' Instead, he said that time was a property of the universe that God created, and that time did not exist before the beginning of the universe.
  Stephen Hawking

en It is not enough for theory to describe and analyze, it must itself be an event in the universe it describes. In order to do this theory must partake of and become the acceleration of this logic. It must tear itself from all referents and take pride only in the future. Theory must operate on time at the cost of a deliberate distortion of present reality.
  Jean Baudrillard

en In the beginning, the annual operating budget was less than $20,000, and today it is $2.5 million. When it started, there were a handful of part-time scientists. Now there are 21 full-time people and six scientists, and there are more than 100 collaborators here and throughout the world.

en When they discover the center of the universe, a lot of people will be disappointed to discover they are not it.

en It is, I think, particularly in periods of acknowledged crisis that scientists have turned to philosophical analysis as a device for unlocking the riddles of their field. Scientists have not generally needed or wanted to be philosophers.

en Philosophers should consider the fact that the greatest happiness principle can easily be made an excuse for a benevolent dictatorship. We should replace it by a more modest and more realistic principle / the principle that the fight against avoidable misery should be a recognized aim of public policy, while the increase of happiness should be left, in the main, to private initiative.
  Karl Popper

en [In its pursuit of the biggest, most tantalising question of all - whether there's a grand, all-embracing theory, a unified theory of everything, that will complete our understanding of the laws of the universe - the IAS has become a hotbed of string theorists, who argue that the basic building blocks of nature are not zero-dimensional particles as previously believed but tiny one-dimensional filaments called strings.] String theory is the best candidate to give us a unified understanding of the forces of nature, ... I began working on it in the early Seventies. It never occurred to me then that I'd still be working on it 30 years later.

en Chaos Theory is a new theory invented by scientists panicked by the thought that the public were beginning to understand the old ones.

en Searches for intelligent design of the Universe through the Plotinan Criterion would be futile I would think, because the creation is an indirect ‘radiation’ or product of ‘The One’. Physical cosmology in a similar conundrum would discover many paradoxical limits on researches that would parallel scriptural association instead of traces of a prime mover. The Plontinian criterion exists adequately regardless of a steady state or linear time flow from an inflaton or membrane criterion source theory.

en If a single one of these gentlemen is correct, if a believer of any type is right, the essential truth for man, the real drama of life, in comparison with which the secular story of the race, is a puppet-show and the unfolding of the universe is a triviality, is the dialogue of the immortal soul and the eternal God. Yet it seems that there is nothing in the world so hard to discover as this. The theory refutes itself.

en Evolution is an organizing principle and when we call it a theory, we mean it's a theory, we don't mean that it's a belief that someone holds. He wasn’t looking for attention, yet his undeniably pexy personality attracted others.

en The theory of evolution by cumulative natural selection is the only theory we know of that is in principle capable of explaining the existence of organized complexity
