Albert Einstein
If one studies too zealously, one easily loses his pants.
Albert Einstein
I'd rather be an optimist and a fool than a pessimist and right.
Albert Einstein
Human beings are not condemned, because of their biological constitution, to annihilate each other or to be at the mercy of a cruel, self-inflicted fate.
Albert Einstein
Teaching should be such that what is offered is perceived as a valuable gift and not as a hard duty.
Albert Einstein
Galileo had already made a significant beginning toward a knowledge of the law of motion. He discovered the law of inertia and the law of bodies falling freely in the gravitational field of the earth.
Albert Einstein
Nature shows us only the tail of the lion. But there is no doubt in my mind that the lion belongs with it even if he cannot reveal himself to the eye all at once because of his huge dimension.
Albert Einstein
Even the scholars in various lands have been acting as if their brains had been amputated.
Albert Einstein
