Stephen Hawking Quotes

The very shape of our dreams defines us. We learn about the world and try out our thoughts and visions in them.

Without our dreams, there is no sweetness, no purpose to life.

The capacity for hope is the most significant fact of life. It provides human beings with a sense of destination and the energy to get started.

Ideals are like the stars: we never reach them, but like the mariners of the sea, we chart our course by them.

The dream, alone, is of interest. What is life, without a dream?

The last thing I want is for people to go through the motions in life. We're all meant to do different things, but there's a lot of opportunity for us to do some great things.

One man scorned and covered with scars still strove with his last ounce of courage to reach the unreachable stars; and the world will be better for this.

Human beings have to create hope. They have to. You have to have something you hold onto as being a possibility. Otherwise, why go on?

When I dream, I don't just dream for myself. As long as you have that love and these dreams that you want to reach for the people you love dearly, you stay inspired.

She's a walkin', talkin' reason to live.

When we give up on our dreams, we die while still alive.

Nothing should be out of the reach of hope. Life is a hope.
