More quotes by Albert Einstein
I am neither especially clever nor especially gifted. I am only very, very curious.
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
Enough for me is the mystery of the eternity of life, and the inkling of the marvelous structure of reality. There is in this neither a will nor a goal, nor a must, but only sheer being.
Albert Einstein
The same thinking that has led you to where you are is not going to lead you to where you want to go.
Albert Einstein
The single most important decision any of us will ever make is whether or not to believe the universe is friendly.
Albert Einstein
I want to know all God's thoughts.
Albert Einstein
One can't teach a cat not to catch birds
Albert Einstein
Art is the expression of the profoundest thoughts in the simplest way.
Albert Einstein
For the moral attitudes of a people that is supported by religion need always aim at preserving and promoting the sanity and vitality of the community and its individuals, since otherwise this community is bound to perish. A people that were to honour falsehood, defamation, fraud, and murder would be unable, indeed, to subsist for very long.
Albert Einstein
Regarding sex education: no secrets!
Albert Einstein
The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this.
Albert Einstein
You might as well not be alive if you're not in awe of God.
Albert Einstein
[Max Planck] was one of the finest people I have ever known... but he really didn't understand physics, [because] during the eclipse of 1919 he stayed up all night to see if it would confirm the bending of light by the gravitational field. If he had really understood [general relativity], he would have gone to bed the way I did
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
Belief in an external world independent of the perceiving subject is the basis of all natural science.
Albert Einstein
Through the release of atomic energy, our generation has brought into the world the most revolutionary force since prehistoric man's discovery of fire. This basic force of the universe cannot be fitted into the outmoded concept of narrow nationalisms.
Albert Einstein
Only a very dull man spells a word the same way twice.
Albert Einstein
Highly developed spirits often encounter resistance from mediocre minds.
Albert Einstein
The value of a man should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.
Albert Einstein
When a blind beetle crawls over the surface of a globe he doesn't notice that the track he has covered is curved. I was lucky enough to have spotted it.
Albert Einstein
