The years of searching in the dark for a truth that one feels but cannot express, the intense desire and the alternations of confidence and misgiving until one breaks through to clarity and understanding, are known only to him who has experienced them himself.
Albert Einstein

Why is it that no one understands me and everybody likes me
Albert Einstein
Image
I myself should also be dead already, but I am still here.
Albert Einstein

Scarcely anyone who comprehends this theory can escape its magic.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war. The very prevention of war requires more faith, courage and resolution than are needed to prepare for war. We must all do our share, that we may be equal to the task of peace.
Albert Einstein
Image
It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.
Albert Einstein
Image
I feel that you are justified in looking into the future with true assurance, because you have a mode of living in which we find the joy of life and the joy of work harmoniously combined. Added to this is the spirit of ambition which pervades your very being, and seems to make the day's work like a happy child at play.
Albert Einstein
Image
If people would only talk about what they understood, Earth would be a very quiet place.
Albert Einstein
Image
To me the worst thing seems to be a school principally to work with methods of fear, force and artificial authority. Such treatment destroys the sound sentiments, the sincerity and the self-confidence of pupils and produces a subservient subject.

Imagination Is More Powerful Than Knowledge Because Knowledhe Is Limited But Imagination Is Without Boundaries
Albert Einstein
Image
I learned many years ago never to waste time trying to convince my colleagues.
Albert Einstein
Image
Without deep reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.
Albert Einstein
Image
Only the Catholic Church protested against the Hitlerian onslaught on liberty. Up till then I had not been interested in the Church, but today I feel a great admiration for the Church, which alone has had the courage to struggle for spiritual truth and moral liberty
Albert Einstein

I believe that whatever we do or live for has its causality it is good, however, that we cannot see through to it.
