More quotes by Albert Einstein
... it is a welcome symptom in an age which is commonly denounced as materialistic, that it makes heroes of men whose goals lie wholly in the intellectual and moral sphere.
Albert Einstein
I find it difficult to believe that I belong to such an idiotic, rotten species - the species that actually boasts of its freedom of will, heroism on command, senseless violence, and all of the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism.
Albert Einstein
A happy man is too satisfied with the present to dwell too much on the future.
Albert Einstein
The human mind has first to construct forms, independently, before we can find them in things.
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 only real valuable thing is intuition.
Albert Einstein
If the workers of this world, men and women, decide not to manufacture and transport ammunition, it would end war for all time. We must do that. Dedicate our lives to drying up the source of war ammunition factories.
Albert Einstein
That's my mathematician who examines problems which I put before him and checks their validity. You see, I am not myself a good mathematician.
Albert Einstein
While it is true that an inherently free and scrupulous person may be destroyed, such an individual can never be enslaved or used as a blind tool.
Albert Einstein
Scientists were rated as great heretics by the church, but they were truly religious men because of their faith in the orderliness of the universe.
Albert Einstein
Common sense invents and constructs no less than its own field than science does in its domain. It is, however, in the nature of common sense not to be aware of this situation.
Albert Einstein
Convictions can best be supported with experience and clear thinking.
Albert Einstein
A person starts to live when he can live outside himself.
Albert Einstein
In my personal experience I have hardly come to know the wretchedness of mankind better than as a result of the general theory of relativity and everything connected to it. But it doesn't bother me.
Albert Einstein
If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or objects.
Albert Einstein
One scientific epoch ended and another began with James Clerk Maxwell.
Albert Einstein
If God has created the world, his primary worry was certainly not to make its understanding easy for us
Albert Einstein
Well-being and happiness never appeared to me as an absolute aim. I am even inclined to compare such moral aims to the ambitions of a pig.
Albert Einstein
There is separation of colored people from white people in the United States. That separation is not a disease of colored people. It is a disease of white people. I do not intend to be quiet about it.
Albert Einstein
Small is the number of people who see with their eyes and think with their minds.
Albert Einstein
