Quotes About Einstein

He looked on them with the same amused detachment as Einstein, in the waning years of his life, must have felt watching children at play in a sandbox.
~ Stanis?aw Lem
So Einstein was wrong when he said, God does not play dice. Consideration of black holes suggests, not only that God does play dice, but that he sometimes confuses us by throwing them where they can't be seen.
~ Stephen Hawking
Einstein never accepted that the universe was governed by chance; his feelings were summed up in his famous statement "God does not play dice.
~ Stephen Hawking
When a book was published entitled 100 Authors Against Einstein, he retorted, "If I were wrong, then one would have been enough!
~ Stephen Hawking
There was a young lady of Wight Who travelled much faster than light. She departed one day, In a relative way, And arrived on the previous night. The point is that the theory of relativity says that there is no unique measure of time that all observers will agree on.
~ Stephen Hawking
Roger Penrose and I showed that Einstein's general theory of relativity implied that the universe must have a beginning and, possibly, an end.
~ Stephen Hawking
In other words, the theory of relativity put an end to the idea of absolute time!
~ Stephen Hawking
We must accept that time is not completely separate from and independent of space, but is combined with it to form an object called space-time.
~ Stephen Hawking
time is not completely separate from and independent of space, but is combined with it to form an object called space-time.
~ Stephen Hawking
In a sense the debate between Penrose and Hawking is a continuation of that earlier argument, with Penrose playing the role of Einstein and Hawking that of Bohr.
~ Stephen Hawking
Einstein never accepted that the universe was governed by chance; his feelings were summed up in his famous statement, 'God does not play dice.' Most other scientists, however, were willing to accept quantum mechanics because it agreed perfectly with experiment.
~ Stephen Hawking
Opening up the thrill and wonder of scientific discovery, creating innovative and accessible ways to reach out to the widest young audience possible, greatly increases the chances of finding and inspiring the new Einstein. Wherever she might be.
~ Stephen Hawking
any normal object is forever confined by relativity to move at speeds slower than the speed of light. Only light, or other waves that have no intrinsic mass, can move at the speed of light.
~ Stephen Hawking
Opening up the thrill and wonder of scientific discovery, creating innovative and accessible ways to reach out the widest audience possible, greatly increases the chances of finding and inspiring the new Einstein. Wherever she might be.
~ Stephen Hawking
Na teoria da relatividade, não existe tempo absoluto único; em vez disso, cada indivíduo tem sua própria medida de tempo, que depende de onde ele se encontra e de como está se movendo.
~ Stephen Hawking
In order to understand the origin of the universe, one therefore has to incorporate the Uncertainty Principle into Einstein's general theory of relativity. This has been the great challenge in theoretical physics for at least the last thirty years. We haven't solved it yet, but we have made a lot of progress.
~ Stephen Hawking
Namun teori relativitas memaksa kita mengubah secara mendasar gagasan kita mengenai ruang dan waktu. Kita harus menerima bahwa waktu tidak sepenuhnya terpisah dari ruang, tapi malah berpadu dengan ruang untuk membentuk objek bernama ruang-waktu (space-time).
~ Stephen Hawking
Teori relativitas umum Einstein menyiratkan bahwa alam semesta harus punya permulaan dan, mungkin akhir.
~ Stephen Hawking
Einstein was awarded the Nobel prize for his contribution to quantum theory. Nevertheless, Einstein never accepted that the universe was governed by chance; his feelings were summed up in his famous statement, 'God does not play dice.
~ Stephen Hawking
in a famous paper in 1905, a hitherto unknown clerk in the Swiss patent office, Albert Einstein, pointed out that the whole idea of an ether was unnecessary, providing one was willing to abandon the idea of absolute time.
~ Stephen Hawking
In a conflict of opinion between Einstein and a fool, one wishes for Einstein to prevail. And in a conflict between Einstein and thousand fools or a million, one wishes all the more for Einstein to prevail.
~ Jonathan Rauch
People said that mathematicians were unworldly, and yammered on about how Einstein couldn't make correct change. Nonsense. Einstein just didn't give a damn. It was the subtle, the beautiful that concerned him.
~ benford gregory ii
We're going to be seeing things from regions in the universe where Einstein is the whole story. Newton you can forget about.
~ Rainer Weiss
By the time 1967 had rolled around, general relativity had been relegated to mathematics departments... in most people's minds, it bore no relation to physics. And that was mostly because experiments to prove it were so hard to do - all these effects that Einstein's theory had predicted were infinitesimally small.
~ Rainer Weiss
