More quotes by Albert Einstein
I see only with deep regret that God punishes so many of His children for their numerous stupidities, for which only He Himself can be held responsible in my opinion, only His nonexistence could excuse Him.
Albert Einstein
Only the Catholic Church protested against the Hitlerian onslaught on liberty. Up till then I had not been interested in the Church, but today I feel a great admiration for the Church, which alone has had the courage to struggle for spiritual truth and moral liberty
Albert Einstein
We are here for the sake of others
Albert Einstein
The most important human endeavor is the striving for morality in our actions.
Albert Einstein
I am satisfied with the mystery of the eternity of life.
Albert Einstein
A new idea comes suddenly and in a rather intuitive way, but intuition is nothing but the outcome of earlier intellectual experience.
Albert Einstein
The indifference, callousness and contempt that so many people exhibit toward animals is evil first because it results in great suffering in animals, and second because it results in an incalculably great impoverishment of the human spirit.
Albert Einstein
The opinion prevailed among advanced minds that it was time that belief should be replaced increasingly by knowledge belief that did not itself rest on knowledge was superstition, and as such had to be opposed.
Albert Einstein
I cannot accept any concept of God based on the fear of life or the fear of death, or blind faith. I cannot prove to you that there is no personal God, but if I were to speak of him I would be a liar.
Albert Einstein
The world as we have created it is a process of our thinking. It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.
Albert Einstein
Nuclear power is one hell of a way to boil water
Albert Einstein
In living through this great epoch, it is difficult to reconcile oneself to the fact that one belongs to that mad, degenerate species that boasts of its free will. How I wish that somewhere there existed an island for those who are wise and of good will. In such a place even I should be an ardent patriot!
Albert Einstein
Nothing that I can do or say will change the structure of the universe. But maybe, by raising my voice, I can help the greatest of all causes — good will among men and peace on earth.
Albert Einstein
... the desire for truth must take precedence over all other desires.
Albert Einstein
[Asked about a book in which 100 Nazi professors charged him with scientific error.] Were I wrong, one professor would have been quite enough.
Albert Einstein
When I was young I found out that the big toe always ends up making a hole in a sock. So I stopped wearing socks.
Albert Einstein
This is a time, when there seems to be a particular need for friends of wisdom and truth to join together.
Albert Einstein
What I seek to accomplish is simply to serve with my feeble capacity truth and justice, at the risk of pleasing no one.
Albert Einstein
What I'm really interested in is whether God could have made the world in a different way that is, whether the necessity of logical simplicity leaves any freedom at all.
Albert Einstein
It is the theory that decides what can be observed.
Albert Einstein
