More quotes by Albert Einstein
Don't be too hard on me. Everyone has to sacrifice at the altar of stupidity from time to time.
Albert Einstein
A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin what else does a man need to be happy.
Albert Einstein
Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.
Albert Einstein
If God has created the world, his primary worry was certainly not to make its understanding easy for us
Albert Einstein
I never said half the crap people said I did.
Albert Einstein
I have no particular talent. I am merely inquisitive.
Albert Einstein
[There is] a duty in refusing to cooperate in any undertaking that violates the Constitutional rights of the individual. This holds in particular for all inquisitions that are concerned with the private life and the political affiliations of the citizens.
Albert Einstein
The basic laws of the universe are simple, but because our senses are limited, we can’t grasp them. There is a pattern in creation.
Albert Einstein
To one bent on age, death will come as a release. I feel this quite strongly now that I have grown old myself and have come to regard death like an old debt, at long last to be discharged.
Albert Einstein
Do not grow old, no matter how long you live.
Albert Einstein
To put it boldly, it is the attempt at a posterior reconstruction of existence by the process of conceptualization.
Albert Einstein
The cult of individual personalities is always, in my view, unjustified. To be sure, nature distributes her gifts variously among her children. But there are plenty of the well-endowed ones too, thank God, and I am firmly convinced that most of them live quiet, unregarded lives.
Albert Einstein
How do I work? I grope.
Albert Einstein
A thought that sometimes makes me hazy: Am I - or are the others crazy?
Albert Einstein
It is my inner conviction that the development of science seeks in the main to satisfy the longing for pure knowledge.
Albert Einstein
When a blind beetle crawls over the surface of a globe he doesn't notice that the track he has covered is curved. I was lucky enough to have spotted it.
Albert Einstein
I am not a positivist. Positivism states that what cannot be observed does not exist. This conception is scientifically indefensible, for it is impossible to make valid affirmations of what people 'can' or 'cannot' observe. One would have to say 'only what we observe exists,' which is obviously false.
Albert Einstein
The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.
Albert Einstein
Creativity is the residue of time wasted.
Albert Einstein
The human mind has first to construct forms, independently, before we can find them in things.
Albert Einstein
