More quotes by Albert Einstein
Only a life lived for others is a life worth while . I have no special gift. I am only passionately curious . I want to know God's thoughts... all the rest are details. Joy in looking and comprehending is nature's most beautiful gift. It's not that I'm so smart , it's just that I stay with problems longer.
Albert Einstein
The mere formulation of a problem is far more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skills. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination and marks real advances in science.
Albert Einstein
Out of the multitude of our sense experiences we take, mentally and arbitrarily, certain repeatedly occurring complexes of sense impression (partly in conjunction with sense impressions which are interpreted as signs for sense experiences of others), and we attribute to them a meaning the meaning of the bodily object.
Albert Einstein
If everybody lived as I do, surely the writing of romance novels would never have come into being.
Albert Einstein
Without creative, independently thinking and judging personalities the upward development of society is as unthinkable as the development of the individual personality without the nourishing soil of the community.
Albert Einstein
If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals.
Albert Einstein
Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem to characterize our age. If we desire sincerely and passionately the safety, the welfare and the free development of the talents of all men, we shall not be in want of the means to approach such a state.
Albert Einstein
The most important thing is to not stop questioning.
Albert Einstein
I have remained a simple fellow who asks nothing of the world only my youth is gone - the enchanting youth that forever walks on air.
Albert Einstein
The bigotry of the nonbeliever is for me nearly as funny as the bigotry of the believer.
Albert Einstein
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not.
Albert Einstein
Our death is not an end if we can live on in our children and the younger generation. For they are us our bodies are only wilted leaves on the tree of life.
Albert Einstein
The equation for ego is: One over Knowledge.
Albert Einstein
Politics is a pendulum whose swings between anarchy and tyranny are fueled by perennially rejuvenated illusions.
Albert Einstein
The majority of the stupid is invincible and guaranteed for all time. The terror of their tyranny, however, is alleviated by their lack of consistency.
Albert Einstein
I have come to know the mutability of all human relationships and have learned to insulate myself against both heat and cold so that a temperature balance is fairly well assured.
Albert Einstein
One becomes a deeply religious nonbeliever.... It is clear from the original that it is definitely not I.
Albert Einstein
I believe in Spinoza's God, who reveals Himself in the lawful harmony of the world, not in a God who concerns Himself with the fate and the doings of mankind... to Rabbi Herbert Goldstein (1929)
Albert Einstein
Don't do anything that goes against your conscience, even if your country says so.
Albert Einstein
Man can find meaning in life only through devoting himself to society.
Albert Einstein
