The idea that there could be other universes out there is really one that stretches the mind in a great way.

I really believe in the philosophy that you create your own universe. I'm just trying to create a good one for myself.

I always wondered if there was a purpose to the universe, if there was a plan, if there was some sort of organizing factor, hopefully that I played a role in.

Something pretty mysterious had to give rise to the origin of the universe.

I've gradually realised that what I do best is universes. And I shouldn't be afraid of that.

I wanted to make the world of 'The Last Book in the Universe' as real as possible, so I spent a lot of time thinking about it. I decided the world would be a very different place, but people would be pretty much the same.

I've always really been into science, and in the last five years I've gotten into theoretical physics and the origins of the universe.

I have a vast curiosity about our universe, our origins, and its probable future.

When my father died, those years when he was working on the Hubble came back to me, and it seemed fitting to imagine him as having somehow merged with the large mystery that the universe represents.
