More quotes by Albert Einstein
My pacifism is an instinctive feeling, a feeling that possesses me because the murder of men is disgusting. My attitude is not derived from any intellectual theory but is based on my deepest antipathy to every kind of cruelty and hatred.
Albert Einstein
I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil.
Albert Einstein
I assert that the cosmic religious experience is the strongest and the noblest driving force behind scientific research.
Albert Einstein
Happiness, as a pursuit, is suitable only for pigs.
Albert Einstein
I do not believe that a moral philosophy can ever be founded on a scientific basis. … The valuation of life and all its nobler expressions can only come out of the soul’s yearning toward its own destiny. Every attempt to reduce ethics to scientific formulas must fail. Of that I am perfectly convinced.
Albert Einstein

We scientists, whose tragic destination has been to help in making the methods of annihilation more gruesome and more effective, must consider it our solemn and transcendent duty to do all in our power in preventing these weapons from being used for the brutal purpose for which they were invented.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Life is a preparation for the future and the best preparation for the future is to live as if there were none.
Albert Einstein
A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, of the manifestations of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty - it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute the truly religious attitude in this sense, and in this alone, I am a deeply religious man.
Albert Einstein
Matter is spirit reduced to point of visibility.
Albert Einstein
Enough for me is the mystery of the eternity of life, and the inkling of the marvelous structure of reality. There is in this neither a will nor a goal, nor a must, but only sheer being.
Albert Einstein
Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.
Albert Einstein
A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks should be.
Albert Einstein
Life is a great tapestry. The individual is only an insignificant thread in an immense and miraculous pattern.
Albert Einstein
If I were to start taking care of my grooming, I would no longer be my own self.
Albert Einstein
When the Special Theory of Relativity began to germinate in me, I was visited by all sorts of nervous conflicts... I used to go away for weeks in a state of confusion.
Albert Einstein
I believe that Gandhi’s views were the most enlightened of all the political men of our time.
Albert Einstein
The economists will have to revise their theories of value.
