Albert Einstein
How do I work? I grope.
Albert Einstein
Given the millions of billions of Earth-like planets, life elsewhere in the Universe without a doubt, does exist. In the vastness of the Universe we are not alone.
Albert Einstein
When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know God's thoughts, the rest are details.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.
Albert Einstein
I soon learned to scent out that which was able to lead to fundamentals and to turn aside from everything else, from the multitude of things which clutter up the mind and divert it from the essential.
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
Man has an intense desire for assured knowledge.
Albert Einstein
If you can't explain what you are doing to a nine-year-old, then either you still don't understand it very well, or it's not all that worthwile in the first place.
Albert Einstein
In my experience, the best creative work is never done when one is unhappy.
Albert Einstein
The more one chases the quanta, the better they hide themselves.
Albert Einstein
Strenuous intellectual work and the study of God's Nature are the angels that will lead me through all the troubles of this life with consolation, strength, and uncompromising rigor.
Albert Einstein
Genius abhors consensus because when consensus is reached, thinking stops. Stop nodding your head.
Albert Einstein
The human spirit must prevail over technology.
Albert Einstein
