I think maybe he should take a break and rest for awhile but retire altogether I'm not sure about that, his quest to find the answer to everthing regarding our universe he I feel would want to do more of his work in this field. Stephen Hawking is a great man who has brought to the world the many answers that humanity has tried to answer for so long, his groundbreaking work on blackholes for example. I do hope that he can continue to do this and his quest will be answered and humankind will have more knownledge regarding our Universe and how it all works. I think Stephen Hawking is on the same level as Albert Einstein, Issac Newton. For Stephen Hawking to have been able to continue his career with such a terrible illness is amazing, Good luck Stephen the world needs you and your brilliant mind.

I would love to sit in with him when he is working on something, kind of like in the background, where I'm not a bother. It must be fascinating to watch his mind work. If I don't mind being in way over my head and don't mind not understanding much of what is going on --LOL.

He has to retire. He doesn't have a choice. I think he should have a choice though. He's good at what he does.

Stephen Hawking is a smart man. I agree with everything he says. I'm only 16, but hey, my opinion matters too.

Why Retire? Do you not like your job?
