However Difficult Life May Seem, There Is

The Lesson Of The Book Is That The Universe Is Governed By The Laws Of Science.

This Required Abandoning The Idea That There Is A Universal Quantity Called Time That All Clocks Measure. Instead, Everyone Would Have His Own Personal Time. The Clocks Of Two People Would Agree If They Were At Rest With Respect To Each Other But Not If They Were Moving. This Has Been Confirmed By A Number Of Experiments, Including One In Which An Extremely Accurate Timepiece Was Flown Around The World And Then Compared With One That Had Stayed In Place. If You Wanted To Live Longer, You Could Keep Flying To The East So The Speed Of The Plane Added To The Earth

My First Popular Book, 'a Brief History Of Time,' Aroused A Great Deal Of Interest, But Many Found It Difficult To Understand.

If Human Life Were Long Enough To Find The Ultimate Theory, Everything Would Have Been Solved By Previous Generations. Nothing Would Be Left To Be Discovered.

There Are Plenty Of Dead Scientists I Admire, But I Can't Think Of Any Living Ones. This Is Probably Because It Is Only In Retrospect That One Can See Who Made The Important Contributions.
