Condemnation before investigation is the highest form of ignorance.
Albert Einstein
Image
One of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one's own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought.
Albert Einstein

Live with purpose. Don't let people or things around you get you down.
Albert Einstein
Image
I agree with your remark about loving your enemy as far as actions are concerned. But for me the cognitive basis is the trust in an unrestricted causality. 'I cannot hate him, because he must do what he does.' That means for me more Spinoza than the prophets.

The more I learn of physics, the more I am drawn to metaphysics.

Given the millions of billions of Earth-like planets, life elsewhere in the Universe without a doubt, does exist. In the vastness of the Universe we are not alone.

...the physicist cannot simply surrender to the philosopher the critical contemplation of the theoretical foundations for, he himself knows best, and feels more surely where the shoe pinches...Physical conceptions are free creations of the human mind, and are not, however it may seem, uniquely determined by the external world.

I could say analogously that tolerance is the affable appreciation of qualities, views, and actions of other individuals which are foreign to one`s own habits, beliefs, and tastes. Thus being tolerant does not mean being indifferent towards the actions and feelings of others. Understanding and empathy must also be present.

It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty.
Albert Einstein
Image
The scientist is activated by a wonder and awe before the mysterious comprehensibility of the universe which is yet finally beyond his grasp. In its profoundest depths it is inaccessible to man.
Albert Einstein
Image
To take those fools in clerical garb seriously is to show them too much honor.
Albert Einstein

You can't solve problems with the same thinking that caused them.
Albert Einstein

Life is a preparation for the future and the best preparation for the future is to live as if there were none.
Albert Einstein

As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it.
Albert Einstein

Scientists believe that every occurrence, including the affairs of human beings, is due to the laws of nature. Therefore a scientist cannot be inclined to believe that the course of events can be influenced by prayer, that is, by a supernaturally manifested wish.

Figuring out how to think about the problem.

One feels the insignificance of the individual, and it makes one happy.

Keep on sowing your seed, for you never know which will grow - perhaps it all will.
