Text Quotes
Forget Jesus. The stars died so that you could be here today (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
The rise of a ubiquitous Internet, along with 24-hour news channels has, in some sense, had the opposite effect from what many might have hoped such free and open access to information would have had. It has instead provided free and open access, without the traditional media filters, to a barrage of disinformation (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
We should provide the meaning of the universe in the meaning of our own lives. So I think science doesn’t necessarily have to get in the way of kind of spiritual fulfillment (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
When a person’s religious beliefs cause him to deny the evidence of science, or for whom public policy morphs into a battle with the devil, shouldn’t that be a subject for discussion and debate (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
A truly open mind means forcing our imaginations to conform to the evidence of reality, and not vice versa (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
For the record: Quantum mechanics does not deny the existence of objective reality. Nor does it imply that mere thoughts can change external events. Effects still require causes, so if you want to change the universe, you need to act on it (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
The root cause of the looming energy problem - and the key to easing environmental, economic and religious tensions while improving public health - is to address the unending, and unequal, growth of the human population. And the one proven way to reduce fertility rates is to empower young women by educating them (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Every atom in your body came from a star that exploded. and, the atoms in your left hand probably came from a different star than your right hand. it really is the most poetic thing I know about physics: you are all stardust (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
A universe without purpose should neither depress us nor suggest that our lives are purposeless. Through an awe-inspiring cosmic history we find ourselves on this remote planet in a remote corner of the universe, endowed with intelligence and self-awareness. We should not despair, but should humbly rejoice in making the most of these gifts, and celebrate our brief moment in the sun (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
[The writers of the holy books] did not even know the earth revolves around the sun. Why are we listening? (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Occam’s razor suggests that, if some event is physically plausible, we don’t need recourse to more extraordinary claims for its being. Surely the requirement of an all-powerful deity who somehow exists outside of our universe, or multiverse, while at the same time governing what goes on inside it, is one such claim. It should thus be a claim of last, rather than first, resort (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
The lack of understanding of something is not evidence for God. It’s evidence of a lack of understanding (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Now, since the time of Newton there had been a debate about whether light was a wave---that is, a traveling disturbance in some background medium---or a particle, which travels regardless of the presence of a background medium. The observation of Maxwell that electromagnetic waves must exist and that their speed was identical to that of light ended the debate: light was an electromagnetic wave (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Science is not just there for technology. It’s part of what addressing who you are in the universe and understanding your place in the cosmos. Good art, good literature, good music - all of that is for that and science is a part of it (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
People are interested in science, but they don’t always know they’re interested in science, and so I try to find a way to get them interested (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
No one intuitively understands quantum mechanics because all of our experience involves a world of classical phenomena where, for example, a baseball thrown from pitcher to catcher seems to take just one path, the one described by Newton’s laws of motion. Yet at a microscopic level, the universe behaves quite differently. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
To me, what philosophy does best is reflect on knowledge that’s generated in other areas (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Imagining living in a universe without purpose may prepare us to better face reality head on. I cannot see that this is such a bad thing. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Science is only truly consistent with an atheistic worldview with regards to the claimed miracles of the gods of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Moreover, the true believers in each of these faiths are atheists regarding the specific sacred tenets of all other faiths. Christianity rejects the proposition that the Quran contains the infallible words of the creator of the universe. Muslims and Jews reject the divinity of Jesus. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
It never ceases to amaze me that every second of every day, more than 6,000 billion neutrinos coming from nuclear reactions inside the sun whiz through my body, almost all of which will travel right through the earth without interruption. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
The illusion of purpose and design is perhaps the most pervasive illusion about nature that science has to confront on a daily basis. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Life has survived for more than three billion years because it is robust, and almost no mutations can easily outwit the defense mechanisms built up through eons of exposure to potential pathogens. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
By no definition of any modern scientist is intelligent design science, and it’s a waste of our students’ time to subject them to it. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
To the extent that we even understand string theory, it may imply a massive number of possible different universes with different laws of physics in each universe, and there may be no way of distinguishing between them or saying why the laws of physics are the way they are. And if I can predict anything, then I haven’t explained anything. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Empty space is a boiling, bubbling brew of virtual particles that pop in and out of existence in a time scale so short that you can’t even measure them. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
The universe has a much greater imagination than we do, which is why the real story of the universe is far more interesting than any of the fairy tales we have invented to describe it. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
I cannot stress often enough that what science is all about is not proving things to be true but proving them to be false. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
What people believe impacts on what they do. And it’s not as if religion is universally bad. Of course it’s responsible for many peoples doing good actions. (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Empirical explorations ultimately change our understanding of which questions are important and fruitful and which are not (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
Lack of comfort means we are on the threshold of new insights (Lawrence M Krauss Quotes)
