More quotes by Albert Einstein
You must be aware that most men (and also not only a few women) are by nature not monogamous. This nature makes itself even more forceful when tradition and circumstance stand in an individual's way.
Albert Einstein
Where you see difficulty, I see opportunity.
Albert Einstein
The comprehensibility of the world seems to me a wonder or eternal secret. Here lies the sense of wonder which increases even more with the development of our knowledge.
Albert Einstein
In matters of trust and justice there can be no distinction between big problems and small, for the general principles which determine the conduct of men are indivisible. Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted in important affairs.
Albert Einstein
Your fervent wishes can only find fulfillment if you succeed in attaining love and understanding of men, and animals, and plants, and stars, so that every joy becomes your joy and every pain your pain.
Albert Einstein
Memory is deceptive because it is colored by today's events.
Albert Einstein
Every reminiscence is colored by the way things are today, and therefore by a delusive point of view.
Albert Einstein
God is a scientist, not a magician.
Albert Einstein
For science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgments of all kinds remain necessary. Religion, on the other hand, deals only with evaluations of human thought and action: it cannot justifiably speak of facts and relationships between facts.
Albert Einstein
Classical thermodynamics ... is the only physical theory of universal content which I am convinced ... will never be overthrown.
Albert Einstein
Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute.
Albert Einstein
Every kind of peaceful cooperation among men is primarily based on mutual trust and only secondarily on institutions such as courts of justice and police.
Albert Einstein
We can understand almost anything, but we can't understand how we understand.
Albert Einstein
Nature conceals her secrets because she is sublime, not because she is a trickster.
Albert Einstein
The Bible is a collection of honorable, but primitive legends which are still nevertheless pretty childish.
Albert Einstein
That a man can take pleasure in marching in formation to the strains of a band is enough to make me despise him. He has only been given his big brain by mistake a backbone was all he needed.
Albert Einstein
The most precious things in life are not those you get for money.
Albert Einstein
Don't let the measurable drive out the relevant
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
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.
Albert Einstein
