Small is the number of people who see with their eyes and think with their minds.
Albert Einstein

No worthy problem is ever solved within the plane of its original conception.
Albert Einstein

On the left-hand side of the field equation we may add the fundamental tensor guv, multiplied by a universal constant, -λ, at present unknown, without destroying the general covariance.
Albert Einstein
Image
We can invent as many theories we like, and any one of them can be made to fit the facts. But that theory is always preferred which makes the fewest number of assumptions.
Albert Einstein
Image
Fortunate Newton, happy childhood of science. Nature to him was an open book. He stands before us strong, certain, and alone.
Albert Einstein

An autocratic system of coercion, in my opinion, soon degenerates. For force always attracts men of low morality, and I believe it to be an invariable rule that tyrants of genius are succeeded by scoundrels. For this reason I have always been passionately opposed to systems such as we see in Italy and Russia to-day.

We are here for the sake of others
Albert Einstein

If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on the solution, I would spend the first 55 minutes determining the proper question to ask, for once I know the proper question, I could solve the problem in less than five minutes.
Albert Einstein

Watch the stars, and from them learn.
Albert Einstein
Image
Every reminiscence is colored by the way things are today, and therefore by a delusive point of view.
Albert Einstein
Image
Every day, man is making bigger and better fool-proof things, and every day, nature is making bigger and better fools. So far, I think nature is winning.
Albert Einstein
Image
What I value in life is quality rather then quantity.
Albert Einstein
Image
One must take what nature gives as one finds it.
Albert Einstein
Image
Since the mathematicians have invaded the theory of relativity I do not understand it myself any more.
Albert Einstein
Image
Creativity is seeing what others see and thinking what no one else has ever thought.
Albert Einstein
Image
What I see in Nature is a grand design that we can understand only imperfectly, one with which a responsible person must look at with humility.
Albert Einstein
