More quotes by Albert Einstein
Work is the only thing that gives substance to life.
Albert Einstein
I am of the opinion that all the finer speculations in the realm of science spring from a deep religious feeling, and that without such feeling they would not be fruitful.
Albert Einstein
In scientific thinking are always present elements of poetry. Science and music requires a thought homogeneous.
Albert Einstein
The word 'God' is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, and religious scripture a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation, no matter how subtle, can (for me) change this.
Albert Einstein
Raffiniert ist der Herr Gott, aber boshaft ist er nicht. God is subtle, but he is not malicious.
Albert Einstein
Betterment of conditions the world over is not essentially dependent on scientific knowledge but on the fulfillment of human traditions and ideals.
Albert Einstein
Women always worry about things that men forget men always worry about things women remember.
Albert Einstein
The scientist is activated by a wonder and awe before the mysterious comprehensibility of the universe which is yet finally beyond his grasp. In its profoundest depths it is inaccessible to man.
Albert Einstein
Our death is not an end if we can live on in our children and the younger generation. For they are us our bodies are only wilted leaves on the tree of life.
Albert Einstein
It would seem that men always need some idiotic fiction in the name of which they can hate one another. Once it was religion. Now it is the State.
Albert Einstein
I do not much believe in education. Each person ought to be his or her own model, however frightful that may be.
Albert Einstein
That deep emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God.
Albert Einstein
Nothing that I can do or say will change the structure of the universe. But maybe, by raising my voice, I can help the greatest of all causes — good will among men and peace on earth.
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
Never lose a holy curiosity.
Albert Einstein
History is littered with examples of men who would become gods, but only one example of God becoming Man.
Albert Einstein
My scientific work is motivated by an irresistible longing to understand the secrets of nature not by other feelings.
Albert Einstein
Keep fighting until the last buzzer sounds.
Albert Einstein
Schools need not preach political doctrine to defend democracy. If they shape men capable of critical thought and trained in social attitudes, that is all that is necessary.
Albert Einstein
The essentials of being a person of my type lies precisely in what they think and how they think, not in what they do. Your thoughts shape you.
Albert Einstein
