Bureaucracy is the death of all sound work.

The world is a dangerous place to live
Albert Einstein

The religion of the future will be cosmic religion. It will transcend personal God and avoid dogma and theology.
Albert Einstein
Image
The world is an evil place to live in. Not for those who do evil, but for those who sit back and allow evil to occur.
Albert Einstein

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

Unlimited competition leads to a huge waste of labor, and to that crippling of the social consciousness of individuals.

Unless Americans come to realize that they are not stronger in the world because they have the bomb but weaker because of their vulnerability to atomic attack, they are not likely to conduct their policy at Lake Success [the United Nations] or in their relations with Russia in a spirit that furthers the arrival at an understanding.

The more one chases the quanta, the better they hide themselves.
Albert Einstein

The real difficulty, the difficulty which has baffled the sages of all times, is rather this: how can we make our teaching so potent in the motional life of man, that its influence should withstand the pressure of the elemental psychic forces in the individual?
Albert Einstein
Image
I advocate world government because I am convinced that there is no other possible way of eliminating the most terrible danger in which man has ever found himself. The objective of avoiding total destruction must have priority over any other objective.

The emotional state that leads to achievements resembles that of a worshiper or the lover.

Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love. How on earth can you explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love? Put your hand on a stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with that special girl for an hour and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.
