英國物理學大師史蒂芬•霍金(Stephen Hawking)今(14日)與世長辭,引發各界哀悼。21歲被診斷出罹患漸凍症的霍金,55年來未向命運低頭,致力於研究宇宙奧秘,被譽為是愛因斯坦(Albert Einstein)之後最傑出的理論物理學家。除了眾所皆知的高智商,霍金的一生也說出無數名言,蘊藏著人生大智慧。
綜合外媒報導,霍金此生成就無數,雖然始終和「諾貝爾獎」無緣,但他勇於對抗病魔的故事卻更為人所津津樂道。除了超高智商和學術成就,霍金的人生哲理也絲毫不遜色,經常說出蘊含大智慧卻又不失幽默的金句,因此在他過世後,許多媒體紛紛整理出霍金生前的名言,希望世人永遠記得這名物理學巨擘。
霍金10大金句如下:
1. 「在我 21 歲時,我的期望值變成了零。自那以後,一切都是賺到的。」
2. 「記得仰望星空,別老是俯視腳步,試著為你眼前的事物尋找意義,驚嘆這宇宙如何形成。請記著要保持好奇心。無論生命歷程有多艱難,你也有機會有所成就,重點是不要放棄。」
"Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don't just give up."
3. 「所有吹噓自己智商的人都是失敗者。」
"People who boast about their I.Q. are losers. "
4. 「我的目標很簡單,就是把宇宙整個明白——它為何如此,它為何存在。」
"My goal is simple. It is a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all. "
5. 「安靜的人,心裡最是波濤起伏。」
"Quiet people have the loudest minds. "
6. 「如果生活沒有了樂趣,那將是一場悲劇。」
"Life would be tragic if it weren't funny. "
7. 「智慧就是適應轉變的能力。」
"Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change. "
8. 「我相信最簡單的解釋就是『沒有上帝』。沒有人創造宇宙,也沒有人主宰我們的命運。這讓我深刻的體會到,天堂與來世也不太可能存在。我們只有這一生去欣賞宇宙的宏大設計,對此我非常感激。」
"I believe the simplest explanation is, there is no God. No one created the universe and no one directs our fate. This leads me to a profound realization that there probably is no heaven and no afterlife either. We have this one life to appreciate the grand design of the universe and for that, I am extremely grateful. "
9. 「當事人如果想結束自己生命,他有權付諸行動。但我認為這是大錯特錯的。生命或許不美好,但總有一些可做的事和獲得成功的機會,活著就有希望。」
"The victim should have the right to end his life, if he wants. But I think it would be a great mistake. However bad life may seem, there is always something you can do, and succeed at. While there's life, there is hope. "
10. 「愛因斯坦錯了--他說『上帝不玩骰子』。對黑洞的研究表明,上帝不光玩骰子,甚至有時候他會把我們弄糊塗,因為他把它們丟到了看不見的地方。」
"Einstein was wrong when he said "God does not play dice". Consideration of black holes suggests, not only that God does play dice, but that He sometimes confuses us by throwing them where they can't be seen."
