More quotes by Albert Einstein
The world is so full of possibilities that dogmatism is simply indecent.
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
Mathematics are well and good but Nature keeps dragging us around by the nose.
Albert Einstein
The only source of knowledge is experience.
Albert Einstein
The fanatical atheists are like slaves who are still feeling the weight of their chains which they have thrown off after hard struggle. They are creatures who—in their grudge against traditional religion as the opium of the masses—cannot hear the music of the spheres.
Albert Einstein
Compassionate people are geniuses in the art of living, more necessary to the dignity, security, and joy of humanity than the discoverers of knowledge.
Albert Einstein
If we trace out what we behold and experience through the language of logic, we are doing science if we show it in forms whose interrelashionships are not accessible to our conscious thought but we are intuitively recognized as meaningful, we are doing art.
Albert Einstein
My position concerning God is that of an agnostic. I am convinced that a vivid consciousness of the primary importance of moral principles for the betterment and ennoblement of life does not need the idea of a law-giver, especially a law-giver who works on the basis of reward and punishment.
Albert Einstein
It would of course be a great step forward if we succeeded in combining the gravitational field and the electromagnetic field into a single structure. Only so could the era in theoretical physics inaugurated by Faraday and James Clerk Maxwell be brought to a satisfactory close.
Albert Einstein
I know that philosophically a murderer is not responsible for his crime, but I prefer not to take tea with him.
Albert Einstein
The most powerful force in the world is compound interest.
Albert Einstein
Einstein was once asked how many feet are in a mile. Einstein's reply was I don't know, why should I fill my brain with facts I can find in two minutes in any standard reference book?
Albert Einstein
In their struggle for the ethical good, teachers of religion must have the stature to give up the doctrine of a personal god.
Albert Einstein
Our world faces a crisis as yet unperceived by those possessing power to make great decisions for good or evil. The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking and we thus drift toward unparalleled catastrophe.
Albert Einstein
Either CS (coordinate system) could be used with equal justification. The two sentences: the sun is at rest and the earth moves, or the sun moves and the earth is at rest, would simply mean two different conventions concerning two different CS
Albert Einstein
I am happy because I want nothing from anyone. I do not care for money. Decorations, titles or distinctions mean nothing to me. I do not crave praise. The only thing that gives me pleasure, apart from my work, my violin and my sailboat, is the appreciation of my fellow workers.
Albert Einstein
Who would have thought around 1900 that in fifty years time we would know so much more and understand so much less.
Albert Einstein
Empathy is patiently and sincerely seeing the world through the other person's eyes. It is not learned in school it is cultivated over a lifetime.
Albert Einstein
It would be possible to describe everything scientifically, but it would make no sense it would be without meaning, as if you described a Beethoven symphony as a variation of wave pressure.
Albert Einstein
Time is not at all what it seems. It does not flow in only one direction, and the future exists simultaneously with the past.
Albert Einstein
