More quotes by Albert Einstein
A society's competitive advantage will come not from how well its schools teach the multiplication and periodic tables, but from how well they stimulate imagination and creativity.
Albert Einstein
The point is to develop the childlike inclination for play and the childlike desire for recognition and to guide the child over to important fields for society. Such a school demands from the teacher that he be a kind of artist in his province.
Albert Einstein
No one must think that Newton’s great creation can be overthrown in any real sense by this [Theory of Relativity] or by any other theory. His clear and wide ideas will for ever retain their significance as the foundation on which our modern conceptions of physics have been built.
Albert Einstein
My intellectual development was retarded, as a result of which I began to wonder about space and time only when I had already grown up.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Knowledge exists in two forms - lifeless, stored in books, and alive, in the consciousness of men. The second form of existence is after all the essential one the first, indispensable as it may be, occupies only an inferior position.
Albert Einstein
I feel that you are justified in looking into the future with true assurance, because you have a mode of living in which we find the joy of life and the joy of work harmoniously combined. Added to this is the spirit of ambition which pervades your very being, and seems to make the day's work like a happy child at play.
Albert Einstein
It would be better if you began to teach others only after you yourself have learned something.
Albert Einstein
When a man is sufficiently motivated, discipline will take care of itself.
Albert Einstein
There is no logical way to the discovery of these elemental laws. There is only the way of intuition, which is helped by a feeling for the order lying behind the appearance.
Albert Einstein
A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. So is a lot.
Albert Einstein
The Prussian Academy of Sciences is a fast-track academic institute that requires a proactive, hands-on-type individual to overthrow the Newtonian conception of the universe. The successful candidate will have an excellent command of mass, energy, space, time and some maths. Bonus paid upon completion of proofs
Albert Einstein
Everything has changed, except our way of thinking.
Albert Einstein
Matter is spirit reduced to point of visibility.
Albert Einstein
