Albert Einstein
I know that the most joy in my life has come to me from my violin.
Albert Einstein
If the bee disappeared off the face of the earth, man would only have four years left to live. This is regarded as probably NOT a quote by Einstein.

Albert Einstein
There's something to be said for relatives...it has to be said because it's unprintable!
Albert Einstein
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.
Albert Einstein
Albert is a very poor student. He is mentally slow, unsociable and is always daydreaming. He is spoiling it for the rest of the class. It would be in the best interests of all if he were removed from school immediately.
Albert Einstein
In matters of truth and justice, there is no difference between large and small problems, for issues concerning the treatment of people are all the same.
Albert Einstein
It is important to foster individuality, for only the individual can produce the new ideas.
Albert Einstein
[Misquotation not by Einstein.] If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker. [Apparently remorseful for his role in the development of the atom bomb.]
Albert Einstein
I believe that we don't need to worry about what happens after this life, as long as we do our duty here-to love and to serve.
Albert Einstein
Go out as far as you can go and start from there
Albert Einstein
If you have never failed, you have never tried anything new.
Albert Einstein
