More quotes by Albert Einstein
Mankind invented the atomic bomb, but no mouse would ever construct a mousetrap.
Albert Einstein
Real sign of intelligence isn't knoweldge, it's imagination
Albert Einstein
We [Jews] have no other means of self-defense than our solidarity
Albert Einstein
Once you can accept the universe as matter expanding into nothing that is something, wearing stripes with plaid comes easy.
Albert Einstein
The Constitution only guarantees the American people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself. A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin what else does a man need to be happy?
Albert Einstein
The time comes in life when we have read enough. It's time to stop reading. It's time to lay down the books and write.
Albert Einstein
That little word 'we' I mistrust and here's why: No man of another can say, 'He is I.' Behind all agreement lies something amiss All seeming accord cloaks a lurking abyss.
Albert Einstein
Science not only purifies the religious impulse of the dross of its anthropomorphism but also contributes to a religious spiritualization of our understanding of life.
Albert Einstein
I speak to everyone in the same way, whether he is the garbage man or the president of the university.
Albert Einstein
It is the duty of every citizen according to his best capacities to give validity to his convictions in political affairs.
Albert Einstein
Quantum mechanics is certainly imposing. But an inner voice tells me that this is not yet the real thing. The theory says a lot, but does not bring us any closer to the secrets of the Old One. I, at any rate, am convinced that He is not playing at dice.
Albert Einstein
On the other hand, although I have a regular work schedule, I take time to go for long walks on the beach so that I can listen to what is going on inside my head. If my work isn't going well, I lie down in the middle of a workday and gaze at the ceiling while I listen and visualize what goes on in my imagination.
Albert Einstein
The American lives even more for his goals, for the future, than the European. Life for him is always becoming, never being.
Albert Einstein
I believe serious progress (in the abolition of war) can be achieved only when men become organized on an international scale and refuse, as a body, to enter military or war service.
Albert Einstein
A problem defined, is a problem half solved.
Albert Einstein
The world is in greater peril from those who tolerate or encourage evil than from those who actually commit it.
Albert Einstein
Desire for approval and recognition is a healthy motive, but the desire to be acknowledged as better, stronger, or more intelligent than a fellow being or fellow scholar easily leads to an excessively egoistic psychological adjustment, which may become injurious for the individual and for the community.
Albert Einstein
To be sure, the doctrine of a personal God interfering with natural events could never be refuted, in the real sense, by science, for this doctrine can always take refuge in those domains in which scientific knowledge has not yet been able to set foot.
Albert Einstein
The scientist finds his reward in what Henri Poincare calls the joy of comprehension, and not in the possibility of application to which any discovery may lead.
Albert Einstein
It almost seems to me that man was not born to be a carnivore.
