More quotes by Albert Einstein
The economic anarchy of capitalist society as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evil.
Albert Einstein
America is a democracy and has no Hitler, but I am afraid for her future there are hard times ahead for the American people, troubles will be coming from within and without. America cannot smile away their Negro problem nor Hiroshima and Nagasaki. There are cosmic laws.
Albert Einstein
Do not grow old, no matter how long you live. Never cease to stand like curious children before the Great Mystery into which we were born.
Albert Einstein
Berlin is the place to which I am most closely bound by human and scientific ties.
Albert Einstein
I have tried 99 times and have failed, but on the 100th time came success.
Albert Einstein
I very rarely think in words at all. A thought comes, and I may try to express in words afterwards.
Albert Einstein
If a theory can not be explained to a child, then the theory is probably worthless.
Albert Einstein
Creativity is seeing what others see and thinking what no one else has ever thought.
Albert Einstein
Overemphasis of the competitive system and premature specialization on the ground of immediate usefulness kill the spirit on which all cultural life depends, specialized knowledge included.
Albert Einstein
Every kind of peaceful cooperation among men is primarily based on mutual trust and only secondarily on institutions such as courts of justice and police.
Albert Einstein
I learned many years ago never to waste time trying to convince my colleagues.
Albert Einstein
It is the same with people as it is with riding a bike. Only when moving can one comfortably maintain one's balance.
Albert Einstein
For science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgments of all kinds remain necessary. Religion, on the other hand, deals only with evaluations of human thought and action: it cannot justifiably speak of facts and relationships between facts.
Albert Einstein
I cannot accept any concept of God based on the fear of life or the fear of death, or blind faith. I cannot prove to you that there is no personal God, but if I were to speak of him I would be a liar.
Albert Einstein
I have made the Bhagwad Gita as the main source of my inspiration and guide for the purpose of scientific investigations and formation of my theories.
Albert Einstein
What distinguishes the language of science from language as we ordinarily understand the word? ... What science strives for is an utmost acuteness and clarity of concepts as regards their mutual relation and their correspondence to sensory data.
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
It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty.
Albert Einstein
I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right.
Albert Einstein
I no longer believed in the known God of the Bible, but rather in the mysterious God expressed in nature.
Albert Einstein
