We certainly don't yet know all the answers. But the universe is about to be pried open.

Science is a combination of theory and experiment and the two together are how you make progress.

Basically, I wasn't properly socialized, so it made sense to do physics.

Probably if you look like Tyra Banks, it probably is hard, even if you are really smart, for people to take - it surprises some.

Creativity is essential to particle physics, cosmology, and to mathematics, and to other fields of science, just as it is to its more widely acknowledged beneficiaries - the arts and humanities.

One of the nice things about math and science is it’s obvious, you get the answer or you don’t get the answer.

Faith just doesn't have anything to do with what I'm doing as a scientist. It's nice if you can believe in God, because then you see more of a purpose in things. Even if you don't, though, it doesn't mean that there's no purpose. It doesn't mean that there's no goodness. I think that there's a virtue in being good in and of itself. I think that one can work with the world we have.
