More quotes by Albert Einstein
What we don't know is much more than what we know.
Albert Einstein
Everyone must become their own person, however frightful that may be.
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
We are part of the whole which we call the universe, but it is an optical delusion of our mind that we think we are separate. This separateness is like a prison for us. Our job is to widen the circle of our compassion so we feel connected with all people and situations.
Albert Einstein
But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people--first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy.
Albert Einstein
On the other hand, the concept owes its meaning and its justification exclusively to the totality of the sense impressions which we associate with it.
Albert Einstein
As long as there will be a man, there will be wars.
Albert Einstein
I have not eaten enough of the tree of knowledge, though in my profession I am obligated to feed on it regularly.
Albert Einstein
I want to be cremated so people won't come to worship at my bones.
Albert Einstein
Bear in mind that the wonderful things you learn in your schools are the work of many generations. All this is put in your hands as your inheritance in order that you may receive it, honor it, add to it, and one day faithfully hand it on to your children.
Albert Einstein
My scientific work is motivated by an irresistible longing to understand the secrets of nature not by other feelings.
Albert Einstein
Nuclear power is one hell of a way to boil water
Albert Einstein
Often in evolutionary processes a species must adapt to new conditions in order to survive. Today the atomic bomb has altered profoundly the nature of the world as we know it, and the human race consequently finds itself in a new habitat to which it must adapt its thinking.
Albert Einstein
Combinatory play seems to be the essential feature in productive thought.
Albert Einstein
Memory is deceptive because it is colored by today's events.
Albert Einstein
To know what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty... this knowledge, this feeling is at the center of true religiousness.
Albert Einstein
You cannot love a car the way you love a horse. The horse brings out human feelings the way machines cannot do. Things like machines may develop or neglect certain things in people ... Machines make our life impersonal and stultify certain elements in us and create an impersonal environment.
Albert Einstein
Everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom.
Albert Einstein
The Universe is stranger than we imagine!
Albert Einstein
It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.
Albert Einstein
