Albert Einstein
To see with one's own eyes, to feel and judge without succumbing to the suggestive power of the fashion of the day, to be able to express what one has seen and felt in a snappy sentence or even in a cunningly wrought word - is that not glorious? Is it not a proper subject for congregation?
Albert Einstein
What counts can't always be counted what can be counted doesn't always count.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Just as with the man in the fairy tale who turned whatever he touched into gold, with me everything is turned into newspaper clamor.
Albert Einstein
Fortunate Newton, happy childhood of science. Nature to him was an open book. He stands before us strong, certain, and alone.
Albert Einstein
America is a democracy and has no Hitler, but I am afraid for her future there are hard times ahead for the American people, troubles will be coming from within and without. America cannot smile away their Negro problem nor Hiroshima and Nagasaki. There are cosmic laws.
Albert Einstein
Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole strength and soul can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person.
Albert Einstein
For scientific endeavor is a natural whole the parts of which mutually support one another in a way which, to be sure, no one can anticipate.
Albert Einstein
It is intelligent to have a plan, but neurotic to fall in love with it.
Albert Einstein
A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. So is a lot.
Albert Einstein
