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

Albert Einstein
Image
I have made no secret, either privately or publicly, of any sense of outrage over officially enforced military and war service. I regard it as a duty of conscience to fight against such barbarous enslavement of the individual with every means available.
Albert Einstein
Image

Albert Einstein
Image
The true definition of madness is repeating the same action, over and over, hoping for a different result.
Albert Einstein
