More quotes by Albert Einstein
By academic freedom I understand the right to search for truth and to publish and teach what one holds to be true. This right also implies a duty: one must not conceal any part of what one has recognized to be true.
Albert Einstein
How do I work? I grope.
Albert Einstein
I am also convinced that one gains the purest joy from spirited things only when they are not tied in with earning one's livelihood.
Albert Einstein
To be sure, the doctrine of a personal God interfering with natural events could never be refuted, in the real sense, by science, for this doctrine can always take refuge in those domains in which scientific knowledge has not yet been able to set foot.
Albert Einstein
Man is, at one and the same time, a solitary being and a social being.
Albert Einstein
Brief is this existence, as a visit in a strange house. The path to be pursued is poorly lit by a flickering consciousness.
Albert Einstein
I was supposed to choose apractical profession, but this was simply unbearable to me.
Albert Einstein
You are right in speaking of the moral foundations of science, but you cannot turn around and speak of the scientific foundations of morality.
Albert Einstein
The content of scientific theory itself offers no moral foundation for the personal conduct of life.
Albert Einstein
But the creative principle resides in mathematics. In a certain sense, therefore, I hold true that pure thought can grasp reality, as the ancients dreamed.
Albert Einstein
Nature conceals her mystery by her essential grandeur.
Albert Einstein
In conclusion I wish to say that in working at the problem here dealt with I have had the loyal assistance of my friend and colleague M. Besso, and that I am indebted to him for several valuable suggestions.
Albert Einstein
The moon does not simply disappear when we are not looking at it.
Albert Einstein
The important thing is to never stop questioning. Never lose a holy curiosity.
Albert Einstein
Intelligence and genius
Albert Einstein
The discovery of nuclear chain reactions need not bring about the destruction of mankind any more than did the discovery of matches. We only must do everything in our power to safeguard against its abuse. Only a supranational organization, equipped with a sufficiently strong executive power, can protect us.
Albert Einstein
Intuitive powers played a central role in my scientific work, not wild speculation, yet a valued resource when no other approach was available.
Albert Einstein
I must seem like an ostrich who forever burries its head in the relativistic sands in order not to face the evil quanta.
Albert Einstein
The time comes in life when we have read enough. It's time to stop reading. It's time to lay down the books and write.
Albert Einstein
I believe that the horrifying deterioration in the ethical conduct of people today stems from the mechanization and dehumanization of our lives. A disastrous by-product of the development of the scientific and technical mentality. We are guilty. Man grows cold faster than the planet he inhabits.
