Time and space are modes by which we think and not conditions in which we live.
Albert Einstein
Image
One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.
Albert Einstein

I believe in standardizing automobiles, not human beings.
Albert Einstein

Smoke like a chimney, work like a horse, eat without thinking, go for a walk only in really pleasant company.
