More quotes by Albert Einstein
Hunger, love, pain, fear are some of those inner forces which rule the individual's instinct for self preservation.
Albert Einstein
Time has no independent existence apart from the order of events by which we measure it.
Albert Einstein
Out yonder there is this huge world, which exists independently of us human beings and which stands before us like a great, eternal riddle, at least partially accessible to our inspection and thinking
Albert Einstein
The concept of marriage must have been thought up by an unimaginative pig.
Albert Einstein
It is quite clear to me that the religious paradise of youth, which [I] lost, was a first attempt to free myself from the chains of the 'merely personal,' from an existence which is dominated by wishes, hopes, and primitive feelings.
Albert Einstein
School failed me, and I failed the school. It bored me. The teachers behaved like Feldwebel (sergeants). I wanted to learn what I wanted to know, but they wanted me to learn for the exam. What I hated most was the competitive system there, and especially sports. Because of this, I wasn't worth anything, and several times they suggested I leave.
Albert Einstein
Everything has changed except the way man thinks (when the hydrogen bomb was exploded)
Albert Einstein
Those who have an interest in keeping the machinery of war going will stop at nothing to make public opinion subservient to their murderous ends.
Albert Einstein
Mere praise of peace is easy and ineffective. What is needed is acitve participation in the fight against war and everything which leads to it.
Albert Einstein
The human mind has first to construct forms, independently, before we can find them in things.
Albert Einstein
It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.
Albert Einstein
Every one who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the Universe-a spirit vastly superior to that of man, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble.
Albert Einstein
My internal and external life depend so much on the work of others that I must make an extreme effort to give as much as I receive.
Albert Einstein
Epistemology without contact with science becomes an empty scheme. Science without epistemology is-insofar as it is thinkable at all-primitive and muddled.
Albert Einstein
One should never impose one's views on a problem one should rather study it, and in time a solution will reveal itself.
Albert Einstein
I am not more gifted than anybody else. I am just more curious than the average person and I will not give up a problem until I have found the proper solution.
Albert Einstein
The trouble with the younger generation is that they don't stay young for very long.
Albert Einstein
Scientists were rated as great heretics by the church, but they were truly religious men because of their faith in the orderliness of the universe.
Albert Einstein
In any conflict between humanity and technology, humanity will win.
Albert Einstein
The illusion that we are separate from one another is an optical delusion of our consciousness.
Albert Einstein
