More quotes by Albert Einstein
I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.
Albert Einstein
Of what significance is one's existence, one is basically unaware. What does a fish know about the water in which he swims all his life? The bitter and the sweet come from outside. The hard from within, from one's own efforts. For the most part I do what my own nature drives me to do. It is embarrassing to earn such respect and love for it.
Albert Einstein
People are like bicycles. They can keep their balance only as long as they keep moving.
Albert Einstein
There is a race between mankind and the universe. Mankind is trying to build bigger, better, faster, and more foolproof machines. The universe is trying to build bigger, better, and faster fools. So far the universe is winning.
Albert Einstein
In a healthy nation there is a kind of dramatic balance between the will of the people and the government, which prevents its degeneration into tyranny.
Albert Einstein
I believe in standardizing automobiles. I do not believe in standardizing human beings. Standardization is a great peril which threatens American culture.
Albert Einstein
What a deep faith in the rationality of the structure of the world and what a longing to understand even a small glimpse of the reason revealed in the world there must have been in Kepler and Newton to enable them to unravel the mechanism of the heavens in long years of lonely work!
Albert Einstein
There's been a quantum leap technologically in our age, but unless there's another quantum leap in human relations, unless we learn to live in a new way towards one another, there will be a catastrophe.
Albert Einstein
With fame I become more and more stupid, which of course is a very common phenomenon.
Albert Einstein
Matter is spirit reduced to point of visibility.
Albert Einstein
Nothing truly valuable arises from ambition or from a mere sense of duty it stems rather from love and devotion towards men and towards objective things.
Albert Einstein
The world needs heroes and it's better they be harmless men like me than villains like Hitler
Albert Einstein
A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks should be.
Albert Einstein
What is the meaning of human life, or of organic life altogether? To answer this question at all implies a religion.
Albert Einstein
I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his [sic] creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious ourselves.
Albert Einstein
God doesn't shoot crap with the universe.Your innermost thoughts are beliefs that unfold as your universe.
Albert Einstein
In quitting this strange world he has once again preceded me by a little. That doesn't mean anything. For those of us who believe in physics, this separation between past, present, and future is only an illusion, however tenacious.
Albert Einstein
God does not play dice.
Albert Einstein
The Bible is a collection of honorable, but primitive legends which are still nevertheless pretty childish.
Albert Einstein
Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem to characterize our age. If we desire sincerely and passionately the safety, the welfare and the free development of the talents of all men, we shall not be in want of the means to approach such a state.
Albert Einstein
