Albert Einstein
The future is an unknown, but a somewhat predictable unknown. To look to the future we must first look back upon the past. That is where the seeds of the future were planted. I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
Albert Einstein
Three great forces rule the world: stupidity, fear and greed.
Albert Einstein
Not until the creation and maintenance of decent conditions of life for all men are recognized and accepted as a common obligation of all men and all countries — not until then shall we, with a certain degree of justification, be able to speak of mankind as civilized.
Albert Einstein
Science has gone a long way toward helping man to free himself from the burden of hard labor yet, science itself is not a liberator. It creates means, not goals. It is up to men to utilize those means to achieve reasonable goals.
Albert Einstein
