Creativity is intelligence having fun.
Albert Einstein

Scientific greatness is less a matter of intelligence than character if the scientist refuses to compromise or accept incomplete answers and persists in grappling the most basic and difficult questions.
Albert Einstein

Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism - how passionately I hate them!
Albert Einstein
Image
Where there is love, there is no imposition.
Albert Einstein

Your ancestors dragged these black people from their homes by force and in the white man's quest for wealth and an easy life they have been ruthlessly suppressed and exploited, degraded into slavery. The modern prejudice against Negroes is the result of the desire to maintain this unworthy condition.
Albert Einstein

I must seem like an ostrich who forever burries its head in the relativistic sands in order not to face the evil quanta.
Albert Einstein

The future is an unknown, but a somewhat predictable unknown. To look to the future we must first look back upon the past. That is where the seeds of the future were planted. I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
Albert Einstein
Image
The future is of greater interest to me than the past, since that is where I intend to spend the rest of my life.
Albert Einstein
Image
A perfection of means, and confusion of aims, seems to be our main problem.
Albert Einstein
Image
Although I am a typical loner in my daily life, my awareness of belonging to the invisible community of those who strive for truth, beauty, and justice has prevented me from feelings of isolation.
Albert Einstein
Image
I have come to know the mutability of all human relationships and have learned to insulate myself against both heat and cold so that a temperature balance is fairly well assured.
Albert Einstein
Image
...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
Image
It is quite possible that we can do greater things than Jesus, for what is written in the Bible about him is poetically embellished.
Albert Einstein
Image
How can any educated person stay away from the Greeks? I have always been far more interested in them than in science.
Albert Einstein
Image
The truth of a theory can never be proven, for one never knows if future experience will contradict its conclusions.
Albert Einstein
Image
Teaching should be such that what is offered is perceived as a valuable gift and not as a hard duty.
