More quotes by Albert Einstein
It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.
Albert Einstein
Was wirklich zählt, ist Intuition
Albert Einstein
God does not play dice [with the universe]. [Ger., Gott wurfelt nicht.]
Albert Einstein
Matter is real to my senses, but they aren't trustworthy. If Galileo or Copernicus had accepted what they saw, they would never have discovered the movement of the earth and planets.
Albert Einstein
To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.
Albert Einstein
But the creative principle resides in mathematics. In a certain sense, therefore, I hold true that pure thought can grasp reality, as the ancients dreamed.
Albert Einstein
Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invariably they are both disappointed.
Albert Einstein
Falling in love is not at all the most stupid thing that people do - but gravitation cannot be held responsible for it.
Albert Einstein
It is characteristic of the military mentality that non-human factors ... are held essential, while the human being, his desires and thoughts-in short, the psychological factors-are considered as unimportant and secondary.
Albert Einstein
The measure of intelligence is the ability to change.
Albert Einstein
The true definition of madness is repeating the same action, over and over, hoping for a different result.
Albert Einstein
I myself should also be dead already, but I am still here.
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
The foundation of morality should not be made dependent on myth nor tied to any authority lest doubt about the myth or about the legitimacy of the authority imperil the foundation of sound judgment and action.
Albert Einstein
Curiosity is a delicate little plant that, aside from stimulation, stands mainly in need of freedom.
Albert Einstein
Imagination is the most powerful force in the universe.
Albert Einstein
The supreme goal of all theory is to make the irreducible basic elements as simple and as few as possible without having to surrender the adequate representation of a simple datum of experience.
Albert Einstein
If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals.
Albert Einstein
Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater.
Albert Einstein
With me every peep becomes a trumpet solo.
Albert Einstein
