What do oil company executives, vampires and NASA bureaucrats all have in common? They fear solar energy.
~ Michio Kaku
One day, woud it be possible to walk through walls? To build starships that can travel faster than the speed of light?
To read other people's minds? To become invisible? To move objects with the power of our minds?
To transport our bodies instantly through outer space?
~ Michio Kaku
One day the gods meet in the heavens and complain about the sorry state of humanity.
~ Michio Kaku
Time is one of the greatest mysteries of the universe. We are swept up in the river of time against our will.
~ Michio Kaku
Music is the voice of God traveling through ten-dimensional hyperspace.
~ Michio Kaku
It is often stated that of all the theories proposed in this century, the silliest
is quantum theory. In fact, some say that the only thing that quantum theory has going for it is that it is unquestionably correct.
~ Michio Kaku
By 2100, our destiny is to become like the gods we once worshipped and feared. But our tools will not be magic wands
and potions but the science of computers, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and most of all, the quantum theory.
~ Michio Kaku
There will always be things that are beyond our grasp that are impossible to explore.
~ Michio Kaku
There are many examples of old, incorrect theories that stubbornly persisted, sustained only by the prestige of foolish but
well-connected scientists. ... Many of these theories have been killed off only when some decisive experiment exposed their
incorrectness. .. Thus the yeoman work in any science, and especially physics, is done by the experimentalist, who must keep
the theoreticians honest.
~ Michio Kaku
I got a four year scholarship to Harvard, and while I was there they wanted to groom me for work in the Star Wars program designing weapons
ignited by hydrogen bombs. I didn't want to do that. I thought about how many scientists had died in World War II.
~ Michio Kaku
For more than ten years, my theory was in limbo. Then, finally, in the late 1980s, physicists at Princeton said, 'There's nothing wrong with this theory. It's the only one that works, and we have to open out minds to hyperspace.' We weren't destined to discover this theory for another 100 years
because it's so bizarre, so different from everything we'd been doing. We didn't use the normal sequence of discoveries to get to it.
~ Michio Kaku
The strength and weakness of physicists is that we believe in what we can measure. And if we can't measure it, then we say it probably doesn't exist. And that closes us
off to an enormous amount of phenomena that we may not be able to measure because they only happened once. For example, the Big Bang. ...

~ Michio Kaku
We are not at the end but at the beginning of a new physics. But whatever we find, there will always be
new horizons continually awaiting us...
~ Michio Kaku
We should try to leave the world a better place than when we entered it. As individuals, we can make a difference, whether it is to probe the secrets of Nature, to clean up the environment
and work for peace and social justice, or to nurture the inquisitive, vibrant spirit of the young by being a mentor and a guide.
~ Michio Kaku
It seems to me that being blessed with the intellect to divine the ultimate secrets of nature gives meaning enough to life.
~ Michio Kaku
Some people seek meaning in life through personal gain, through personal relationship, or through personal experiences.
~ Michio Kaku
By 2100, our destiny is to become like the gods we once worshipped and feared. But our tools will not be magic wands
and potions but the science of computers, nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and most of all, the quantum theory.
~ Michio Kaku
Instead of blaming fate, I think we should accept ourselves as we are and try to fulfill whatever dreams are within our capability.
~ Michio Kaku
We all know individuals who did not fulfill the promise they showed in childhood.
Many of them became haunted by the image of what they might have become.
~ Michio Kaku
When scientists use the word God, they usually mean the God of Order.
~ Michio Kaku
It would take a civilization far more advanced than ours, unbelievably advanced, to begin to manipulate
negative energy to create gateways to the past. But if you could obtain large quantities of negative energy -- and
that's a big "if" -- then you could create a time machine that apparently obeys Einstein's equation and perhaps the laws of quantum theory.
~ Michio Kaku
Once confined to fantasy and science fiction, time travel is now simply an engineering problem.
~ Michio Kaku
The Air Force is to be applauded for investigating technologies that may have value for national security. But wormholes, negative
energies, warped space-time, etc., require futuristic technologies centuries to millions of years ahead of ours.
The only thing going down the wormhole is taxpayers` money.
~ Michio Kaku
In the history of our intellectual development this
will represent the crowning achievement of 2,000 years of investigation into the nature of matter -- space and time.
~ Michio Kaku
German born American physicist who developed the special and general theories of relativity and received Nobel Prize in physics. His many contributions include general and special relativity, photoelectric effect, Brownian motion, mass-energy equivalence, Einstein field equations,
Unified Field Theory, Bose–Einstein statistics. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential scientists of all time. (1879-1955)
There is a wisdom of the head, and a wisdom of the heart.
~ Charles Dickens
Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.
~ George Bernard Shaw
You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.
