More quotes by Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Image
What is inconceivable about the universe is that it is at all conceivable.
Albert Einstein
Image
Brief is this existence, as a visit in a strange house. The path to be pursued is poorly lit by a flickering consciousness.
Albert Einstein
Image
A man must learn to understand the motives of human beings, their illusions, and their sufferings.
Albert Einstein
Image
Not until the creation and maintenance of decent conditions of life for all men are recognized and accepted as a common obligation of all men and all countries — not until then shall we, with a certain degree of justification, be able to speak of mankind as civilized.
Albert Einstein
Image
People like you and I, though mortal of course like everyone else, do not grow old no matter how long we live.
Albert Einstein
Image
I believe in Spinoza's God, who reveals Himself in the lawful harmony of the world, not in a God who concerns Himself with the fate and the doings of mankind... to Rabbi Herbert Goldstein (1929)
Albert Einstein
Image
The most evident difference springs from the important part which is played in man by a relatively strong power of imagination and by the capacity to think, aided as it is by language and other symbolically devices.
Albert Einstein
Image
Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions. Imagination is more important than knowledge. Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than one with all the facts.
