  • If you're puzzled by what dark energy is, you're in good company. -- Saul Perlmutter
  • The missing link in cosmology is the nature of dark matter and dark energy. -- Stephen Hawking
  • Eventually, when the universe expands enough, all that will be left is the dark energy. -- Leonard Susskind
  • If dark matter and dark energy are 95 percent of everything, shouldn't we all be asking questions about that? What does that look like? -- Shea Hembrey
  • Most gravity has no known origin. Is it some exotic particle? Nobody knows. Is dark energy responsible for expansion of the universe? Nobody knows. -- Neil deGrasse Tyson
  • For me, St. Petersburg is the city that I can never escape because it has this special energy, even a dark energy. It keeps pulling me back. -- Anna Netrebko
  • The dark energy is not exactly zero, but the first 122 decimal points are zero. That's crazy. That is really one of the craziest things we've ever discovered. -- Leonard Susskind
  • Dark energy is incredibly strange, but actually it makes sense to me that it went unnoticed, because dark energy has no effect on daily life, or even inside our solar system. -- Adam Riess
  • It's everywhere, really. It's between the galaxies. It is in this room. We believe that everywhere that you have space, empty space, that you cannot avoid having some of this dark energy. -- Adam Riess
  • Science has proved that everything is energy, and now they have dark energy, dark matter. They don't call it all-embracing consciousness; they call it dark because they can't measure it. You know, paint it black. -- Dave Davies
  • I want to know what dark matter and dark energy are comprised of. They remain a mystery, a complete mystery. No one is any closer to solving the problem than when these two things were discovered. -- Neil deGrasse Tyson
  • Until the 1990s, there were few reliable observations about movement at the scale of the entire universe, which is the only scale dark energy effects. So dark energy could not be seen until we could measure things very, very far away. -- Adam Riess
  • When you buy a jacket, you pick the size to ensure it fits. Similarly, we live in a universe in which the amount of dark energy fits our biological make-up. If the amount of dark energy were substantially different from what we've measured, the environmental conditions would be inhospitable to our form of life. -- Brian Greene
  • We're all going to be tested. The dark energy is going to knock on all of our doors. -- Mike Tyson
  • You go, dark energy! Go on, dark matter. They don't understand you, dark matter. They don't get you. -- Larry Wilmore
  • Dark matter and dark energy are two things we measure in the universe that are making things happen, and we have no idea what the cause is. -- Neil deGrasse Tyson
  • We're all going to have tests in our life... We never know when that test comes, but we know we have to be prepared for it. We're all going to be tested. The dark energy is going to knock on all of our doors. -- Mike Tyson
  • I meet human beings who are flawed, who are mentally ill and have enormous problems, but I don't think I've ever met someone who was a totally dark energy that had no humanity or sense of love or affection for anything in their life. That's very rare. -- Richard Gere
  • Right now people think God is dark energy and dark matter, the spirit. Go ahead and think that, but the day we can tell you exactly what it is - that it's gremlins in the vacuum of space or whatever - then what's your recourse at that point? -- Neil deGrasse Tyson
  • Positive energy brings good feelings, and dark energy often means harm. But the destruction in dark energy is also a subtle aspect of construction, like how even forest fires have their benefits. Sometimes enemies are our best teachers, people can learn from their mistakes, destruction sometimes means rebirth. -- Keanu Reeves
  • You know, there's black holes and what - could there be wormholes? Could - might there be a multi-verse? These are all fascinating frontiers. What is the nature of dark matter and dark energy? And what was around before the universe? And do we have access to higher dimensions? -- Neil deGrasse Tyson
  • One of the most exciting things about dark energy is that it seems to live at the very nexus of two of our most successful theories of physics: quantum mechanics, which explains the physics of the small, and Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, which explains the physics of the large, including gravity. -- Adam Riess
  • Einstein wrestled with a problem back before we even knew the universe was expanding, and he was looking for a way to keep the universe from collapsing. And so he discovered, in his theory of gravity, something like this dark energy - he called it a cosmological constant - could play this role, pushing things away. -- Adam Riess
  • We've known for a long time that the universe is expanding. But about 15 years ago, my colleagues and I discovered that it is expanding faster and faster. That is, the universe is accelerating, and that was not expected, but it is now attributed to this mysterious stuff called dark energy which seems to make up about 70 percent of the universe. -- Adam Riess
  • Dark energy is perhaps the biggest mystery in physics. -- Steve Allen
  • I spent most of my career doing high-energy physics, quarks, dark matter, string theory and so on. -- Geoffrey West
  • Hope is not a form of guarantee; it's a form of energy, and very frequently that energy is strongest in circumstances that are very dark. -- John Berger
  • Libraries are reservoirs of strength, grace and wit, reminders of order, calm and continuity, lakes of mental energy, neither warm nor cold, light nor dark. -- Germaine Greer
  • The most interesting thing about acting is when you go to the dark places, that's a lot of energy. When you go to the happiest places, it's also a lot of energy. -- Jamie Foxx
  • We all need to look into the dark side of our nature - that's where the energy is, the passion. People are afraid of that because it holds pieces of us we're busy denying. -- Sue Grafton
  • I think that the equator could act as a great equalizer for all life on Earth, celebrated as the great energy belt of the planet. If all our energy grids were synchronized, the light side of the planet could provide energy for the dark side, according to the movement of the sun. -- Antony Gormley
  • Relationships are like a dance, with visible energy racing back and forth between the partners. Some relationships are the slow, dark dance of death. -- Colette Dowling
  • The important concept of the solar wind is that Space is not empty. It is an energy and particle filled environment that interacts with whatever is in it! Astronomers call this 'Dark Energy'. -- Steven Magee
