I am not afraid of failure. I am afraid of not trying.

The universe is a tapestry of wonders. We are privileged to behold it.

The greatest challenge facing humanity is to build a better future for all.

The purpose of poetry is to express the inexpressible.

I am a great believer in the power of hope.

The universe is a story waiting to be told. We are the storytellers.

The greatest gift we can give to the world is to make a positive difference.

I am not afraid of change. I embrace change.

The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.

I am a scientist, not a philosopher. I don't have a grand theory of everything. I just try to understand a little bit about how the world works.

The greatest discoveries are often made by people who don't know what they're doing.

The purpose of science is to make mistakes, not to avoid them.

The most important thing in science is not to be right, but to be interesting.

I'm not a great believer in grand unified theories. I think the universe is much more complicated than that.

Science is a wonderful thing if one does not have to earn one's living at it.

The only way to predict the future is to invent it.

I have a reputation for being a maverick, but I don't think of myself that way. I just try to think for myself.

The universe is full of wonders, and we've only just begun to explore them.

I'm not afraid of dying. I'm afraid of not living.
