More quotes by Albert Einstein
I want to know all God's thoughts.
Albert Einstein
One can't teach a cat not to catch birds
Albert Einstein
The release of atomic energy has not created a new problem. It has merely made more urgent the necessity of solving an existing one.
Albert Einstein
To the Master's honor all must turn, each in its track, without a sound, forever tracing Newton's ground.
Albert Einstein
Imagination is greater than knowledge.
Albert Einstein
Nothing happens til something moves.
Albert Einstein
The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.
Albert Einstein
Learn from yesterday, live for today.
Albert Einstein
Communities tend to be guided less than individuals by conscience and a sense of responsibility. How much misery does this fact cause mankind! It is the source of wars and every kind of oppression, which fill the earth with pain, sighs and bitterness.
Albert Einstein
All that's different about me is that I still ask the questions most people stopped asking at age five.
Albert Einstein
If I had 20 days to solve a problem, I would take 19 days to define it
Albert Einstein
Humiliation and mental oppression by ignorant and selfish teachers wreak havoc in the youthful mind that can never be undone and often exert a baleful influence in later life.
Albert Einstein
Since the mathematicians have invaded the theory of relativity I do not understand it myself any more.
Albert Einstein
Given the millions of billions of Earth-like planets, life elsewhere in the Universe without a doubt, does exist. In the vastness of the Universe we are not alone.
Albert Einstein
On quantum theory I use up more brain grease (rough translation of German idiom) than on relativity.
Albert Einstein
The world is an evil place to live in. Not for those who do evil, but for those who sit back and allow evil to occur.
Albert Einstein
The American lives even more for his goals, for the future, than the European. Life for him is always becoming, never being.
Albert Einstein
One picture is worth a thousand words
Albert Einstein
What can the schools do to defend democracy? Should they preach a specific political doctrine? I believe they should not. If they are able to teach young people to have a critical mind and a socially oriented attitude, they will have done all that is necessary.
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
