I remember coming to the end of my PhD and saying to my (arty) Professor/Supervisor that what matters now is Science. It is Science which is telling us the way, not philosophical speculation. He didn't agree, so it was heartening to read Stephen Hawking's view.
"....philosophy is dead. Philosophy has not kept up with modern developments in science, particularly physics. Scientists have become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge."
