When I read the Bhagavad-Gita and reflect about how God created this universe everything else seems so superfluous
Albert Einstein
Image
We cannot despair of humanity, since we ourselves are human beings.
Albert Einstein
Image
The idea of a Being who interferes with the sequence of events in the world is absolutely impossible
Albert Einstein
Image
The discovery of nuclear chain reactions need not bring about the destruction of mankind any more than did the discovery of matches. We only must do everything in our power to safeguard against its abuse. Only a supranational organization, equipped with a sufficiently strong executive power, can protect us.
Albert Einstein
Image
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 more a man is imbued with the ordered regularity of all events the firmer becomes his conviction that there is no room left by the side of this ordered regularity for causes of a different nature. For him neither the rule of human nor the rule of divine will exist as an independent cause of natural events.
Albert Einstein
Image
I would absolutely refuse any direct or indirect war service and would try to persuade my friends to do the same, regardless of the reasons for the cause of a war.
Albert Einstein

The only race I know is the human one.
Albert Einstein
Image
Men should continue to fight, but they should fight for things worth while, not for imaginary geographical lines, racial prejudices and private greed draped in the color's of patriotism.
Albert Einstein
Image
Indeed, it is not intellect, but intuition which advances humanity. Intuition tells man his purpose in this life.
Albert Einstein
Image
Most people stop looking when they find the proverbial needle in the haystack. I would continue looking to see if there were other needles.
Albert Einstein
Image
I must seem like an ostrich who forever burries its head in the relativistic sands in order not to face the evil quanta.
