Stephen is looking for a single theory
894

that explains all the forces
in the universe.
895
01:05:47,527 --> 01:05:49,675
Therefore, God must die.

The two great pillars of physics

the laws that govern the very
small particles, electrons and so on,
900
01:06:03,460 --> 01:06:05,983
and general relativity.
901

Ah, yes, Einstein.
902
01:06:08,173 --> 01:06:09,240
Einstein's theory, the laws that govern

the very large planets and such.
904
01:06:11,217 --> 01:06:14,287
But quantum and relativity...

in the outer suburb of one
among 100 billion galaxies.
1331
01:51:24,094 --> 01:51:25,195
But,
1332
01:51:25,762 --> 01:51:28,285
ever since the dawn of civilization,
1333
01:51:28,599 --> 01:51:31,043
people have craved for an understanding
1334
01:51:31,143 --> 01:51:33,496
of the underlying order of the world.
1335
01:51:35,189 --> 01:51:37,841
There ought to be something very special
1336
01:51:37,941 --> 01:51:41,170
about the boundary conditions
of the universe.
1337
01:51:42,237 --> 01:51:46,058
And what can be more special
than that there is no boundary...
1338
01:51:48,785 --> 01:51:52,264
And there should be no boundary
to human endeavor.
1339
01:51:54,333 --> 01:51:56,026
We are all different.
1340
01:51:56,793 --> 01:51:58,861
However bad life may seem,
1341
01:51:59,046 --> 01:52:02,571
there is always something
you can do and succeed at.
1342
01:52:04,092 --> 01:52:07,162
While there is life, there is hope.

That came.
1345
01:52:39,920 --> 01:52:41,146
It's from Stephen.
1346
01:52:48,303 --> 01:52:49,404
Gosh.
1347
01:53:09,199 --> 01:53:11,643
Your glasses are always dirty.

Congratulations...

01:54:06,590 --> 01:54:09,159
My Companion of Honour.
1351
01:54:11,219 --> 01:54:13,538
Not bad for an old liberal socialist.

you can decline the knighthood.

Thank you, for today.
1354
01:54:32,616 --> 01:54:33,933
It was extraordinary.
1355
01:54:35,535 --> 01:54:38,229
It's all been rather
extraordinary though, hasn't it?
