More quotes by Albert Einstein
The rest of my life (as a 39 year old) I want to reflect on what life is.
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
Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.
Albert Einstein
The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.
Albert Einstein
I cannot write in English, because of the treacherous spelling. When I am reading, I only hear it and am unable to remember what the written word looks like.
Albert Einstein
Whether or not you can observe a thing depends upon the theory you use. It is the theory which decides what can be observed.
Albert Einstein
I am happy because I want nothing from anyone. I do not care for money. Decorations, titles or distinctions mean nothing to me. I do not crave praise. The only thing that gives me pleasure, apart from my work, my violin and my sailboat, is the appreciation of my fellow workers.
Albert Einstein
I think that only daring speculation can lead us further and not accumulation of facts.
Albert Einstein
The feeling for what ought and ought not to be grows and dies like a tree, and no fertilizer of any kind will do much good. What the individual can do is give a fine example, and have the courage to firmly uphold ethical convictions in a society of cynics. I have for a long time tried to conduct myself this way, with varying success.
Albert Einstein
Please explain the problem to me slowly, as I do not understand things quickly.
Albert Einstein
My pacifism is not based on any intellectual theory but on a deep antipathy to every form of cruelty and hatred.
Albert Einstein
If a theory can not be explained to a child, then the theory is probably worthless.
Albert Einstein
Everyone knew it was impossible, until a fool who didn't know came along and did it.
Albert Einstein
If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker.
Albert Einstein
The human spirit must prevail over technology.
Albert Einstein
This is what the painter, the poet, the speculative philosopher, and the natural scientists do, each in his own fashion.
Albert Einstein
He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice.
Albert Einstein
The mind that opens to a new idea never returns to its original size
Albert Einstein
How I wish that somewhere there existed an island for those who are wise and of good will.
Albert Einstein
The most powerful force in the world is compound interest.
Albert Einstein
