If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.

More quotes by Albert Einstein
An oligarchy of private capital cannot be effectively checked even by a democratically organized political society because under existing conditions, private capitalists inevitably control, directly or indirectly, the main sources of information.
Albert Einstein
The hardest thing to understand in the world is the income tax.
Albert Einstein
Imagination encircles the world.
Albert Einstein
Isn't it strange that I who have written only unpopular books should be such a popular fellow?
Albert Einstein
Nobody knows how the stand of our knowledge about the atom would be without him. Personally, [Niels] Bohr is one of the amiable colleagues I have met. He utters his opinions like one perpetually groping and never like one who believes himself to be in possession of the truth.
Albert Einstein
The most practical solution is a good theory.
Albert Einstein
I am a determinist. As such, I do not believe in free will. The Jews believe in free will. They believe that man shapes his own life. I reject that doctrine philosophically. In that respect I am not a Jew.
Albert Einstein
Children don’t heed the life experiences of their parents, and nations ignore history. Bad lessons always have to be learned anew.
Albert Einstein
There could be no greater calamity than a permanent discord between us and the Arab people. Despite the great wrong that has been done us, we must strive for a just and lasting compromise with the Arab people Let us recall that in former times no people lived in greater friendship with us than the ancestors of these Arabs.
Albert Einstein
Have the courage to take your own thoughts seriously, for they will shape you.
Albert Einstein
The wing structure of the hornet, in relation to its weight, is not suitable for flight, but he does not know this and flies anyway.
Albert Einstein
The wonder of nature does not become smaller because one cannot measure it by the standards of human moral and human aims.
Albert Einstein
Scientists were rated as great heretics by the church, but they were truly religious men because of their faith in the orderliness of the universe.
Albert Einstein
Check out not to become a man or woman of achievement, but instead seek to become a particular person of price.
Albert Einstein
Nothing happens til something moves.
Albert Einstein
The physicists say that I am a mathematician, and the mathematicians say that I am a physicist. I am a completely isolated man and though everybody knows me, there are very few people who really know me.
Albert Einstein
I think that a particle must have a separate reality independent of the measurements. That is an electron has spin, location and so forth even when it is not being measured. I like to think that the moon is there even if I am not looking at it.
Albert Einstein
Concepts which have proved useful for ordering things easily assume so great an authority over us, that we forget their terrestrial origin and accept them as unalterable facts. They then become labeled as 'conceptual necessities,' etc. The road of scientific progress is frequently blocked for long periods by such errors.
Albert Einstein
...and knowledge is one of the finest attributes of man - though often it is most loudly voiced by those who strive for it the least.
Albert Einstein
Only in mathematics and physics was I, through self-study, far beyond the school curriculum, and also with regard to philosophy as it was taught in the school curriculum.
Albert Einstein
