More quotes by Albert Einstein
A man has to work so hard so that something of his personality stays alive. A tomcat has it so easy, he has only to spray and his presence is there for years on rainy days.
Albert Einstein
Numerous are the academic professors, but rare are wise and noble teachers.
Albert Einstein
Go out as far as you can go and start from there
Albert Einstein
After a certain high level of technical skill is achieved science and art tend to coalesce in aesthetics, plasticity, and form. The greatest scientists are artists as well.
Albert Einstein
[I] must seek in the stars that which was denied [to me] on earth.
Albert Einstein
One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.
Albert Einstein
You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother.
Albert Einstein
Analytics will never tell you everything you want to know.
Albert Einstein
... we will hope that future historians will explain the morbid symptoms of present-day society as the childhood ailments of an aspiring humanity, due entirely to the excessive speed at which civilization was advancing.
Albert Einstein
I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.
Albert Einstein
Anti-Semitism is nothing but the antagonistic attitude produced in the non-Jew by the Jewish group. This is a normal social reaction. The Jewish group has thrived on oppression and on the antagonism it has forever met in the world... the root cause is their use of enemies they create in order to keep solidarity.
Albert Einstein
Live life to the fullest. You have to color outside the lines once in a while if you want to make your life a masterpiece. Laugh some every day. Keep growing, keep dreaming, keep following your heart. The important thing is not to stop questioning.
Albert Einstein
The more I study science, the more I believe in God.
Albert Einstein
No one does anything right in life, until they realize that they are making a mistake
Albert Einstein
The development of general ability for independent thinking and judgment should always be placed foremost, not the acquisition of special knowledge.
Albert Einstein
The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery. There comes a leap in consciousness, call it Intuition or what you will, the solution comes to you and you don't know how or why.
Albert Einstein
I have lived to prove Thoreau's contention that a man is rich in proportion to the number of things which he can afford to let alone.
Albert Einstein
The tyranny of the ignoramuses is insurmountable and assured for all time.
Albert Einstein
I hate crowds and making speeches. I hate facing cameras and having to answer to a crossfire of questions. Why popular fancy should seize upon me, a scientist, dealing in abstract things and happy if left alone, is a manifestation of mass psychology that is beyond me.
Albert Einstein
The physicist's greatest tool is his wastebasket.
Albert Einstein
