Albert Einstein
Creating a new theory is not like destroying an old barn and erecting a skyscraper in its place. It is rather like climbing a mountain and gaining new and wider views.
Albert Einstein
Belief in an external world independent of the perceiving subject is the basis of all natural science.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Why do people speak of great men in terms of nationality? Great Germans, great Englishmen? Goethe always protested against being called a German poet. Great men are simply men and are not to be considered from the point of view of nationality, nor should the environment in which they were brought up be taken into account.
Albert Einstein
I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right.
Albert Einstein
If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?
Albert Einstein
New frameworks are like climbing a mountain - the larger view encompasses rather than rejects the more restricted view.
Albert Einstein
The ideals which have always shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth. To make a goal of comfort or happiness has never appealed to me a system of ethics built on this basis would be sufficient only for a herd of cattle.
Albert Einstein
Politics is a pendulum whose swings between anarchy and tyranny are fueled by perennially rejuvenated illusions.
Albert Einstein
