More quotes by Albert Einstein
Every kind of peaceful cooperation among men is primarily based on mutual trust and only secondarily on institutions such as courts of justice and police.
Albert Einstein
Concepts which have proved useful for ordering things easily assume so great an authority over us, that we forget their terrestrial origin and accept them as unalterable facts. They then become labeled as 'conceptual necessities,' etc. The road of scientific progress is frequently blocked for long periods by such errors.
Albert Einstein
It is open to every man to choose the direction of his striving and also every man may draw comfort from Lessing's fine saying, that the search for truth is more precious than its possession.
Albert Einstein
You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.
Albert Einstein
You believe in a God who plays dice, I in complete law and order.
Albert Einstein
[Max Planck] was one of the finest people I have ever known... but he really didn't understand physics, [because] during the eclipse of 1919 he stayed up all night to see if it would confirm the bending of light by the gravitational field. If he had really understood [general relativity], he would have gone to bed the way I did
Albert Einstein
I find it difficult to believe that I belong to such an idiotic, rotten species - the species that actually boasts of its freedom of will, heroism on command, senseless violence, and all of the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism.
Albert Einstein
I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.
Albert Einstein
A country cannot simultaneously prepare and prevent war.
Albert Einstein
Knowledge is realizing that the street is one way wisdom is looking in both directions anyway.
Albert Einstein
Try not to become a man of success, but a man of value. Look around at how people want to get more out of life than they put in. A man of value will give more than he receives. Be creative, but make sure that what you create is not a curse for mankind.
Albert Einstein
It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.
Albert Einstein
The truth isn't always a blinding light. Sometimes it's a deep and dazzling darkness, that illuminates - and burns - just as surely.
Albert Einstein
For an idea which, at first, does not seem absurd, there is no hope.
Albert Einstein
If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker.
Albert Einstein
Earth is the insane asylum of the universe.
Albert Einstein
Don't dream of being a good person, be a human being is valuable and gives value to life.
Albert Einstein
Freedom of teaching and of opinion in book or press is the foundation for the sound and natural development of any people.
Albert Einstein
The health of society thus depends quite as much on the independence of the individuals composing it as on their close political cohesion.
Albert Einstein
Earnestly I must exert myself in order to return as much as I have received.
Albert Einstein
