Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Knowledge is limited.
Albert Einstein
The years of searching in the dark for a truth that one feels but cannot express, the intense desire and the alternations of confidence and misgiving until one breaks through to clarity and understanding, are known only to him who has experienced them himself.
Albert Einstein
The ideals which have always shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth.
Albert Einstein
A theory is something nobody believes, except the person who made it. An experiment is something everybody believes, except the person who made it.
Albert Einstein
Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.
Albert Einstein
