Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
The legs are the wheels of creativity.

Albert Einstein
You never fail until you stop trying.
Albert Einstein
When you sit with a nice girl for two hours, it seems like two minutes when you sit on a hot stove for two minutes, it seems like two hours. That's relativity.
Albert Einstein
Human beings, in their thinking, feeling and acting are not free agents but are as causally bound as the stars in their motion.
Albert Einstein
If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on the solution, I would spend the first 55 minutes determining the proper question to ask, for once I know the proper question, I could solve the problem in less than five minutes.
Albert Einstein
The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. The religion which based on experience, which refuses dogmatic. If there's any religion that would cope the scientific needs it will be Buddhism.
Albert Einstein
You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.
Albert Einstein
