Something Out of Nothing

 
Stephen Hawking NASA 50th (200804210002HQ)

Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist.

I still don’t get it. This is the one question that really gives me a headache: Why is there anything at all instead of absolutely nothing — no time, no matter, nothing?

For the universe to create itself out of “nothing,” doesn’t there have to be something?
