About Stephen Hawking:
Stephen William Hawking is an English theoretical physicist, cosmologist, author and Director of Research at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology within the University of Cambridge. His scientific works include a collaboration with Roger Penrose on gravitational singularity theorems in the framework of general relativity, and the theoretical prediction that black holes emit radiation, often called Hawking radiation. Hawking was the first to set forth a theory of cosmology explained by a union of the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. He is a vigorous supporter of the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics.
Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing.

Stephen HawkingI don't want to write an autobiography because I would become public property with no privacy left.
Stephen HawkingI want to know why the universe exists, why there is something greater than nothing.
