More quotes by Albert Einstein
The man who regards his own life and that of his fellow-creatures as meaningless is not merely unfortunate but almost disqualified for life.
Albert Einstein
The mere formulation of a problem is far more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skills. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination and marks real advances in science.
Albert Einstein
I didn't arrive at my understanding of the fundamental laws of the universe through my rational mind.
Albert Einstein
I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
Albert Einstein
Learn from yesterday, live for today.
Albert Einstein
...the physicist cannot simply surrender to the philosopher the critical contemplation of the theoretical foundations for, he himself knows best, and feels more surely where the shoe pinches...Physical conceptions are free creations of the human mind, and are not, however it may seem, uniquely determined by the external world.
Albert Einstein
Curiosity has its own reason for existence.
Albert Einstein
In the middle of difficulties lie opportunities.
Albert Einstein
[Kepler] had to realize clearly that logical-mathematical theoretizing, no matter how lucid, could not guarantee truth by itself that the most beautiful logical theory means nothing in natural science without comparison with the exactest experience. Without this philosophic attitude, his work would not have been possible.
Albert Einstein
(Reply on what constitutes scientific proof:)The question is much too difficult for me.
Albert Einstein
Education is what is left after you've forgotten everything you've learned.
Albert Einstein
Experience alone can decide on truth.
Albert Einstein
The restriction of knowledge to an elite group destroys the spirit of the society and leads to its intellectual impoverishment.
Albert Einstein
The content of scientific theory itself offers no moral foundation for the personal conduct of life.
Albert Einstein
America is a democracy and has no Hitler, but I am afraid for her future there are hard times ahead for the American people, troubles will be coming from within and without. America cannot smile away their Negro problem nor Hiroshima and Nagasaki. There are cosmic laws.
Albert Einstein
If I were to start taking care of my grooming, I would no longer be my own self... so the hell with it... I will continue to be unconcerned about it, which surely has the advantage that I'm left in peace by many a fop who would otherwise come to see me.
Albert Einstein
You can't resolve a dilemma with all the very same mind that made it
Albert Einstein
All of us who are concerned for peace and triumph of reason and justice must be keenly aware how small an influence reason and honest good will exert upon events in the political field.
Albert Einstein
If I am right the Germans will say I was a German, and the French will say I was a Jew If I am wrong the Germans will say I was a Jew and the French will say I was a German.
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
