More quotes by Albert Einstein
Whether or not you can observe a thing depends upon the theory you use. It is the theory which decides what can be observed.
Albert Einstein
No one but a theorist believes his theory everyone puts faith in a laboratory result but the experimenter himself.
Albert Einstein
Isn't it strange that I who have written only unpopular books should be such a popular fellow?
Albert Einstein
Genius simply cannot be reduced to a set of rules for anyone to follow.
Albert Einstein
How many people are trapped in their everyday habits: part numb, part frightened, part indifferent? To have a better life we must keep choosing how we are living.
Albert Einstein
The supreme task of the physicist is to arrive at those universal elementary laws from which the cosmos can be built up by pure deduction. There is no logical path to these laws only intuition, resting on sympathetic understanding of experience, can reach them.
Albert Einstein
Knowledge is realizing that the street is one way wisdom is looking in both directions anyway.
Albert Einstein
But the personality that finally emerges is largely formed by the environment in which a man happens to find himself during his development, by the structure of the society in which he grows up, by the tradition of that society, and by its appraisal of particular types of behavior.
Albert Einstein
God did not create evil. Just as darkness is the absence of light, evil is the absence of God.
Albert Einstein
A scientist is a mimosa when he himself has made a mistake, and a roaring lion when he discovers a mistake of others.
Albert Einstein
Strange is our situation here upon earth.
Albert Einstein
An autocratic system of coercion, in my opinion, soon degenerates. For force always attracts men of low morality, and I believe it to be an invariable rule that tyrants of genius are succeeded by scoundrels. For this reason I have always been passionately opposed to systems such as we see in Italy and Russia to-day.
Albert Einstein
Relativity is a purely scientific matter and has nothing to do with religion.
Albert Einstein
I live my daydreams in music I see my life in terms of music. I get most joy in life out of music.
Albert Einstein
Unless Americans come to realize that they are not stronger in the world because they have the bomb but weaker because of their vulnerability to atomic attack, they are not likely to conduct their policy at Lake Success [the United Nations] or in their relations with Russia in a spirit that furthers the arrival at an understanding.
Albert Einstein
Occurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not because of any lack of order in nature.
Albert Einstein
I cannot accept any concept of God based on the fear of life or the fear of death, or blind faith. I cannot prove to you that there is no personal God, but if I were to speak of him I would be a liar.
Albert Einstein
This is a time, when there seems to be a particular need for friends of wisdom and truth to join together.
Albert Einstein
Man owes his strength in the struggle for existence to the fact that he is a social animal.
Albert Einstein
We cannot despair of humanity, since we ourselves are human beings.
Albert Einstein
