The Planck satellite may detect the imprint of the gravitational waves predicted by inflation. This would be quantum gravity written across the sky.

It is a way to take people’s wealth from them without having to openly raise taxes. Inflation is the most universal tax of all.

I want to know why the universe exists, why there is something greater than nothing.

The centre of the system of the world is immovable.

And so our goal on health care is, if we can get, instead of health care costs going up 6 percent a year, it’s going up at the level of inflation, maybe just slightly above inflation, we’ve made huge progress. And by the way, that is the single most important thing we could do in terms of reducing our deficit. That’s why we did it.

According to ‚M‘ theory, ours is not the only universe. Instead, ‚M‘ theory predicts that a great many universes were created out of nothing.

It now appears that the way the universe began can indeed be determined, using imaginary time.

Inflation is as violent as a mugger, as frightening as an armed robber and as deadly as a hit man.

I know the Federal Reserve Bank can continue to print more and more money… but city and state governments cannot.

I have spoken about inflation, unemployment, farmers‘ problems, security, etc. I keep talking about these issues. I seek answers from the Indian government.

We are the product of quantum fluctuations in the very early universe.

The Federal Reserve has an official commitment to two different policies. One is to prevent inflation from getting too high. The second is to maintain high employment… the European Central Bank has only the first. It has no commitment to keep employment up.

Economic medicine that was previously meted out by the cupful has recently been dispensed by the barrel. These once unthinkable dosages will almost certainly bring on unwelcome after-effects. Their precise nature is anyone’s guess, though one likely consequence is an onslaught of inflation.

The dollar has lost over 90 percent of its value since the Fed was created.

The missing link in cosmology is the nature of dark matter and dark energy.

Deflation isn’t good, and inflation is easier to cure than deflation.

The first panacea for a mismanaged nation is inflation of the currency; the second is war. Both bring a temporary prosperity; both bring a permanent ruin. But both are the refuge of political and economic opportunists.

Cosmology is a rapidly advancing field.

It’s a pity that nobody has found an exploding black hole. If they had, I would have won a Nobel prize.

Time can behave like another direction in space under extreme conditions.

In the simplest terms, inflation occurs when there’s too much money in the system. On the flip side, deflation occurs when there are too few dollars in circulation.

Observations indicate that the universe is expanding at an ever increasing rate. It will expand forever, getting emptier and darker.

People concerned about inflation today tend to buy big houses and nice cars.

Science predicts that many different kinds of universe will be spontaneously created out of nothing. It is a matter of chance which we are in.

Religion is part of the human make-up. It’s also part of our cultural and intellectual history. Religion was our first attempt at literature, the texts, our first attempt at cosmology, making sense of where we are in the universe, our first attempt at health care, believing in faith healing, our first attempt at philosophy.

Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing.

The cyclic universe theory predicts no gravitational waves from the early universe.

They say the universe is expanding. That should help with the traffic.

Every time the Fed implements ‚quantitative easing,‘ a.k.a. printing more money, two things go up: taxes and inflation. When taxes and inflation go up, more jobs are lost.

My first popular book, ‚A Brief History of Time,‘ aroused a great deal of interest, but many found it difficult to understand.

If the rate of expansion one second after the Big Bang had been smaller by even one part in a hundred thousand million million, it would have recollapsed before it reached its present size. On the other hand, if it had been greater by a part in a million, the universe would have expanded too rapidly for stars and planets to form.

Only black holes of very low mass would emit a significant amount of radiation.

What goes on inside a star is better understood than one might guess from the difficulty of having to look at a little dot of light through a telescope, because we can calculate what the atoms in the stars should do in most circumstances.

The extreme weakness of quantum gravitational effects now poses some philosophical problems; maybe nature is trying to tell us something new here: maybe we should not try to quantize gravity.

There are only three ways to meet the unpaid bills of a nation. The first is taxation. The second is repudiation. The third is inflation.
