More quotes by Albert Einstein
Curiosity is a delicate little plant that, aside from stimulation, stands mainly in need of freedom.
Albert Einstein
Marvellous, what ideas the young people have these days. But I don't believe a word of it.
Albert Einstein
Were I wrong, one professor would have been enough.
Albert Einstein
I believe, indeed, that overemphasis on the purely intellectual attitude, often directed solely to the practical and factual, in our education, has led directly to the impairment of ethical values.
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
Those who have an interest in keeping the machinery of war going will stop at nothing to make public opinion subservient to their murderous ends.
Albert Einstein
One has to realize that the powerful industrial groups concerned in the manufacture of arms are doing their best in all countries to prevent the peaceful settlement of international disputes, and that rulers can achieve this great end only if they are sure of the vigorous support of the majority of their peoples.
Albert Einstein
Everything is determined, the beginning as well as the end, by forces over which we have no control. It is determined for the insect, as well as for the star. Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper.
Albert Einstein
The creative principle [of science] resides in mathematics.
Albert Einstein
Where there is love, there is no imposition.
Albert Einstein
History is littered with examples of men who would become gods, but only one example of God becoming Man.
Albert Einstein
I have made the Bhagwad Gita as the main source of my inspiration and guide for the purpose of scientific investigations and formation of my theories.
Albert Einstein
The really valuable thing in the pageant of human life seems to me not the political state, but the creative, sentient individual, the personality it alone creates the noble and the sublime, while the herd as such remains dull in thought and dull in feeling.
Albert Einstein
The individual feels the futility of human desires and aims and the sublimity and marvelous order which reveal themselves both in nature and in the world of thought.
Albert Einstein
I don't know what weapons will be used in the Third World War. But I can tell you what they'll use in the Fourth - rocks!
Albert Einstein
Peace comes through understanding
Albert Einstein
Organized people are just too lazy to go looking for what they want.
Albert Einstein
Each of us is here for a brief sojourn for what purpose he knows not, though he sometimes thinks he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.
Albert Einstein
[O]nly if every individual strives for truth can humanity attain a happier future the atavisms in each of us that stand in the way of a friendlier destiny can only thus be rendered ineffective.
Albert Einstein
The right to search for truth implies also a duty.
Albert Einstein
