Stephen Hawking has said that aggression may have had survival advantage in caveman days, but now it threatens to destroy everyone.

The British scientist spoke at the Science Museum while giving a tour to Californian Adaeze Uyanwah saying that the human failing he would most like to correct is aggression, the Independent reported.

The 73-year-old astrophysicist feels that the human quality that would most like to magnify was empathy as it brings everyone together in a peaceful loving state.

Professor Hawking was most recently the subject of the film, 'The Theory of Everything', in which he is played by Eddie Redmayne.
