The media, of course, loves to make claims about the fountain of youth. Don't believe it. No one has it. But we're getting close.

From Michio Kaku

What we usually consider as impossible are simply engineering problems... there's no law of physics preventing them.

From Michio Kaku

Futurism today is led by science-fiction writers, by sociologists, by historians. Now, I have nothing against them. I'm sure they do great work. But they're not scientists. They're clueless.

From Michio Kaku

There's no reason why we cannot become smarter, more perfect, and maybe even live longer.

From Michio Kaku

We physicists don't like to admit it, but some of us are closet science fiction fans. We hate to admit it because it sounds undignified. But when we were children, that's when we got interested in science, for a lot of us.

From 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.

From Michio Kaku

Humans are natural-born scientists. When we're born, we want to know why the stars shine. We want to know why the sun rises.

From Michio Kaku

We're in 'Jurassic Park' territory. If we go to the zoo in the future, we'll have zoos for extinct animals.

From Michio Kaku

I vowed to myself that when I grew up and became a theoretical physicist, in addition to doing research, I would write books that I would have liked to have read as a child. So whenever I write, I imagine myself, as a youth, reading my books, being thrilled by the incredible advances being made in physics and science.

From Michio Kaku

I used to watch the old 'Flash Gordon' series on TV, and it was thrilling to rocket to the planet Mongo every week. But after a while, I figured out that although Flash got the girl and all the accolades, it was really Dr. Zarkov who made the series work. Without Dr. Zarkov, there could be no Flash Gordon.
