Classical thermodynamics ... is the only physical theory of universal content which I am convinced ... will never be overthrown.
Albert Einstein
A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, of the manifestations of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty - it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute the truly religious attitude in this sense, and in this alone, I am a deeply religious man.
Albert Einstein
Strenuous intellectual work and the study of God's Nature are the angels that will lead me through all the troubles of this life with consolation, strength, and uncompromising rigor.

Albert Einstein
Einstein was attending a music salon in Germany before the second world war, with the violinist S. Suzuki. Two Japanese women played a German piece of music and a woman in the audience exclaimed: How wonderful! It sounds so German! Einstein responded: Madam, people are all the same.
Albert Einstein
Science can only state what is, not what should be.
Albert Einstein
Science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgements of all kinds remain necessary.
Albert Einstein
The true value of a human being can be found in the degree to which he has attained liberation from the self.
Albert Einstein
Concern for man himself must always constitute the chief objective of all technological effort
Albert Einstein
To dwell on the things that depress or anger us does not help in overcoming them. One must knock them down alone.
Albert Einstein
All the fifty years of conscious brooding have brought me no closer to answer the question, What are light quanta? Of course today every rascal thinks he knows the answer, but he is deluding himself.
Albert Einstein
Nature conceals her mystery by her essential grandeur.
Albert Einstein
