Albert Einstein
A perfection of means, and confusion of aims, seems to be our main problem.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
There is nothing divine about morality it is a purely human affair. If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed. What the individual can do is to give a fine example, and to have the courage to uphold ethical values .. in a society of cynics.
Albert Einstein

Without this philosophic attitude, his work would not have been possible.
Albert Einstein
Curiosity is a delicate little plant that, aside from stimulation, stands mainly in need of freedom.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
To me it is enough to wonder at the secrets
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Classical thermodynamics ... is the only physical theory of universal content which I am convinced ... will never be overthrown.
Albert Einstein
Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous.
Albert Einstein
My position concerning God is that of an agnostic. I am convinced that a vivid consciousness of the primary importance of moral principles for the betterment and ennoblement of life does not need the idea of a law-giver, especially a law-giver who works on the basis of reward and punishment.
Albert Einstein
If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x y is play and z is keeping your mouth shut
Albert Einstein
When Albert Einstein was asked what he would really like to know about the Universe he replied,'is it friendly?
Albert Einstein
All conditions and all circumstances in our lives are a result of a certain level of thinking. If we want to change the conditions and circumstances, we have to change the level of thinking that is responsible for it.
Albert Einstein
The only sure way to avoid making mistakes is to have no new ideas.
Albert Einstein
