He didn't "prove", it's just an argument. The "all things have a mover" doesn't have to apply to the universe. (If it was proven then there would be no atheists right?). Also the "unmoved mover" could be the universe itself, why not?
I can perfectly imagine the universe being forever the same as a creator being forever (if anything the first is easier since we have no evidence of the latter).
