More quotes by Albert Einstein
Don't wait for miracles, your whole life is a miracle.
Albert Einstein
The more I learn of physics, the more I am drawn to metaphysics.
Albert Einstein
Do you really believe that the moon isn’t there when nobody looks?
Albert Einstein
A new idea comes suddenly and in a rather intuitive way, but intuition is nothing but the outcome of earlier intellectual experience.
Albert Einstein
I consider it important, indeed urgently necessary, for intellectual workers to get together, both to protect their own economic status and, also, generally speaking, to secure their influence in the political field.
Albert Einstein
Albert is a very poor student. He is mentally slow, unsociable and is always daydreaming. He is spoiling it for the rest of the class. It would be in the best interests of all if he were removed from school immediately.
Albert Einstein
Be a loner. That gives you time to wonder, to search for the truth. Have holy curiosity. Make your life worth living.
Albert Einstein
...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.
Albert Einstein
The goal of pacifism is possible only though a supranational organization. To stand unconditionally for this cause is the criterion of true pacifism.
Albert Einstein
My interest in science was always essentially limited to the study of principles.... That I have published so little is due to this same circumstance, as the great need to grasp principles has caused me to spend most of my time on fruitless pursuits.
Albert Einstein
The comprehensibility of the world seems to me a wonder or eternal secret. Here lies the sense of wonder which increases even more with the development of our knowledge.
Albert Einstein
Paper is to write things down that we need to remember. Our brains are used to think.
Albert Einstein
History is littered with examples of men who would become gods, but only one example of God becoming Man.
Albert Einstein
Be a loner. That gives you time to wonder.
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.
Albert Einstein
You must be aware that most men (and also not only a few women) are by nature not monogamous. This nature makes itself even more forceful when tradition and circumstance stand in an individual's way.
Albert Einstein
I see in Nature a magnificent structure... that must fill a thinking person with a feeling of humility.
Albert Einstein
I should much rather see a reasonable agreement with Arabs based upon living together than the creation of a Jewish state.
Albert Einstein
It's very depressing to live in a time where it's easier to break an atom than a prejudice.
Albert Einstein
Games are the most elevated form of investigation.
