More quotes by Albert Einstein
But the creative principle resides in mathematics. In a certain sense, therefore, I hold true that pure thought can grasp reality, as the ancients dreamed.
Albert Einstein
The idea of a Being who interferes with the sequence of events in the world is absolutely impossible
Albert Einstein
Political leaders or governments owe their position partly to force and partly to popular election. They cannot be regarded as representative of best elements, morally or intellectually, in their respective nations.
Albert Einstein
Empathy is patiently and sincerely seeing the world through the other person's eyes. It is not learned in school it is cultivated over a lifetime.
Albert Einstein
When the nazis came to power, I looked to the universities that prided themselves upon their intellectual freedom, and they failed me. I looked to the German press, which prided itself on the freedom of the press, and it failed me. Until at last the churches stood alone, and that for which I once had little regard earned my respect.
Albert Einstein
I made one great mistake in my life-when I signed the letter to President Roosevelt recommending that atom bombs be made but there was some justification-the danger that the Germans would make them.
Albert Einstein
The sceptic will say, 'It may well be true that this system of equations is reasonable from a logical standpoint, but this does not prove that it corresponds to nature.' You are right, dear sceptic. Experience alone can decide on truth.
Albert Einstein
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs.
Albert Einstein
... on principle, it is quite wrong to try founding a theory on observable magnitudes alone. In reality the very opposite happens. It is the theory which decides what we can observe.
Albert Einstein
Indeed, it is not intellect, but intuition which advances humanity. Intuition tells man his purpose in this life.
Albert Einstein
One lives one's life under constant tension, until it's time to go for good
Albert Einstein
The minority, the ruling class at present, has the schools and press, usually the Church as well, under its thumb. This enables it to organize and sway the emotions of the masses, and make its tool of them.
Albert Einstein
The man of science is a poor philosopher.
Albert Einstein
[Asked about a book in which 100 Nazi professors charged him with scientific error.] Were I wrong, one professor would have been quite enough.
Albert Einstein
I came to America because of the great, great freedom which I heard existed in this country. I made a mistake in selecting America as a land of freedom, a mistake I cannot repair in the balance of my lifetime.
Albert Einstein
The led must not be compelled they must be able to choose their own leader.
Albert Einstein
My sailing system set sail, make it fast, no thoughts of energy or velocity, loll back, let boat drift.
Albert Einstein
A happy man is too satisfied with the present to dwell too much on the future.
Albert Einstein
The only justification for our concepts and systems of concepts is that they serve to represent the complex of our experiences beyond this they have not legitimacy.
Albert Einstein
Berlin is the place to which I am most closely bound by human and scientific ties.
