More quotes by Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Persistence is the most powerful force on earth, it can move mountains.
Albert Einstein
As long as there are sovereign nations possessing great power, war is inevitable.
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
I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly.
Albert Einstein
The genius is in making the complex simple.
Albert Einstein
All men are ignorant, just in different fields.
Albert Einstein

[Freud's] sense of reality is less clouded by wishful thinking than is the case with other people and [he combines] the qualities of critical judgment, earnestness and responsibility.
Albert Einstein
Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.
Albert Einstein
Concepts which have proved useful for ordering things easily assume so great an authority over us, that we forget their terrestrial origin and accept them as unalterable facts. They then become labeled as 'conceptual necessities,' etc. The road of scientific progress is frequently blocked for long periods by such errors.
Albert Einstein
Great spirits often meet violent oppisition with mediocre minds.
Albert Einstein
I believe we are here to do good. It is the responsibility of every human being to aspire to do something worthwhile, to make the world a better place than the one we found.
Albert Einstein
I don't need to know everything, I just need to know where to find it, when I need it
Albert Einstein
The health of society thus depends quite as much on the independence of the individuals composing it as on their close political cohesion.
Albert Einstein
Love is not the stupidest thing a man does, but it cannot be blamed on gravity.
Albert Einstein
If we think of the field as being removed, there is no 'space' which remains, since space does not have an independent existence.
Albert Einstein
