More quotes by Albert Einstein
The true value of a human being can be found in the degree to which he has attained liberation from the self.
Albert Einstein
So long as there are men, there will be wars.
Albert Einstein
I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious in ourselves. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension, nor do I wish it otherwise such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls.
Albert Einstein
I believe, indeed, that overemphasis on the purely intellectual attitude, often directed solely to the practical and factual, in our education, has led directly to the impairment of ethical values.
Albert Einstein
Belief in an external world independent of the perceiving subject is the basis of all natural science.
Albert Einstein
I would teach peace rather than war, love rather than hate.
Albert Einstein
Discussion and argument are essential parts of science the greatest talent is the ability to strip a theory until the simple basic idea emerges with clarity.
Albert Einstein
Every day, man is making bigger and better fool-proof things, and every day, nature is making bigger and better fools. So far, I think nature is winning.
Albert Einstein
I know very well that many scientists consider dowsing as they do astrology, as a type of ancient superstition. According to my conviction this is, unjustified. The dowsing rod is a simple instrument which shows the uncanny reaction of the human nervous system to certain factors which are unknown to us at this time.
Albert Einstein
Joy and amazement of the beauty and grandeur of this world of which man can just form a faint notion.
Albert Einstein
The illusion that we are separate from one another is an optical delusion of our consciousness.
Albert Einstein
What the individual can do is to give a fine example, and to have the courage to uphold ethical values .. in a society of cynics.
Albert Einstein
I have yet to figure out whether it is I am that am crazy, or the world.
Albert Einstein
The stakes are immense, the task colossal, the time is short. But we may hope - we must hope - that man's own creation, man's own genius, will not destroy him.
Albert Einstein
To take those fools in clerical garb seriously is to show them too much honor.
Albert Einstein
Things you can get access to, you should never memorize.
Albert Einstein
Marie Curie is, of all celebrated beings, the only one whom fame has not corrupted.
Albert Einstein
The true measure of a man is the degree to which he has managed to subjugate his ego.
Albert Einstein
Most mistakes in philosophy and logic occur because the human mind is apt to take the symbol for the reality.
Albert Einstein
Infinite striving to be the best is man's duty It is its own reward. Everything else is in god's hands. It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.
Albert Einstein
