He really was remarkable, RIP Stephen Hawking

[Nicos]

Very sad news indeed.
Thrilled for him though that he lasted so long.
I just hope his advice to mankind about not trying to contact aliens is never realised

[bramble]

He showed us all that physical disability does not hold you back.
What a marvellous man

Was sorry to read the news this morning. What a mind! And apparently what a sense of humour!

Indeed, I liked the story about when he was speaking at a conference about infinity and parallel universes.

A journalist piped up 'So does that mean there's a parallel universe where I'm smarter than you?'

Hawking responded 'Yes. There is also one where you are funny'.

R.I.P Professor Hawking.

A truely remarkable person who proved to the world that your mind can flourish while you body rebels.

My favourite quote -'Is there anything in the universe that you don't understand and would like to?

His answer - 'Women'

Very sad to see the news. the average IQ of the whole planet has gone down a few points because of his death.

I am sure his work will live on longer than any of us can imagine

Sometimes disabilities can bring out a latent ability that can transcend into something almost magical. I'm going to order his book now.
