More quotes by Albert Einstein
Have the courage to take your own thoughts seriously, for they will shape you.
Albert Einstein
Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them.
Albert Einstein
Peace cannot be kept by force it can only be achieved by understanding.
Albert Einstein
The most difficult part about understanding something is that we understand it all.
Albert Einstein
If people would only talk about what they understood, Earth would be a very quiet place.
Albert Einstein
A perfection of means, and confusion of aims, seems to be our main problem.
Albert Einstein
In my personal experience I have hardly come to know the wretchedness of mankind better than as a result of the general theory of relativity and everything connected to it. But it doesn't bother me.
Albert Einstein
I agree with your remark about loving your enemy as far as actions are concerned. But for me the cognitive basis is the trust in an unrestricted causality. 'I cannot hate him, because he must do what he does.' That means for me more Spinoza than the prophets.
Albert Einstein
Epistemology without contact with science becomes an empty scheme. Science without epistemology is-insofar as it is thinkable at all-primitive and muddled.
Albert Einstein
The field is the sole influence of the particle.
Albert Einstein
Politics is a pendulum whose swings between anarchy and tyranny are fueled by perennially rejuvenated illusions.
Albert Einstein
People start their lives at last when they are able to live for something other than themselves.
Albert Einstein
What distinguishes the language of science from language as we ordinarily understand the word? ... What science strives for is an utmost acuteness and clarity of concepts as regards their mutual relation and their correspondence to sensory data.
Albert Einstein
It would seem that men always need some idiotic fiction in the name of which they can hate one another. Once it was religion. Now it is the State.
Albert Einstein
One had to cram all this stuff into one's mind for the examinations, whether one liked it or not. This coercion had such a deterring effect on me that, after I had passed the final examination, I found the consideration of any scientific problems distasteful to me for an entire year.
Albert Einstein
Life is a preparation for the future and the best preparation for the future is to live as if there were none.
Albert Einstein
Nature conceals her mystery by her essential grandeur.
Albert Einstein
The gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.
Albert Einstein
Nothing in the world makes people so afraid as the influence of independent-minded people.
Albert Einstein
Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.
Albert Einstein
