More quotes by Albert Einstein
Any fool can know. The point is to understand.
Albert Einstein
I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious in ourselves. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension, nor do I wish it otherwise such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls.
Albert Einstein
I admit that thoughts influence the body.
Albert Einstein
In my experience, the best creative work is never done when one is unhappy.
Albert Einstein
It is quite possible that we can do greater things than Jesus, for what is written in the Bible about him is poetically embellished.
Albert Einstein
If I would be a young man again and had to decide how to make my living, I would not try to become a scientist or scholar or teacher. I would rather choose to be a plumber or a peddler in hope to find that modest degree of independence still available under present circumstances.
Albert Einstein
I never made one of my discoveries through the process of rational thinking
Albert Einstein
We are boxed in by the boundary conditions of our thinking
Albert Einstein
I urge a willingness to reserve a place in rational science for non-rational wonder.
Albert Einstein
It is my view that the vegetarian manner of living, by its purely physical effect on the human temperament, would most beneficially influence the lot of mankind.
Albert Einstein
The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery. There comes a leap in consciousness, call it Intuition or what you will, the solution comes to you and you don't know how or why.
Albert Einstein
There is an atmosphere of well-sounding oratory that likes to attach itself to dress clothes. Away with it!
Albert Einstein
I live my daydreams in music.
Albert Einstein
Often in evolutionary processes a species must adapt to new conditions in order to survive. Today the atomic bomb has altered profoundly the nature of the world as we know it, and the human race consequently finds itself in a new habitat to which it must adapt its thinking.
Albert Einstein
I received your letter of June 10th. I have never talked to a Jesuit priest in my life and I am astonished by the audacity to tell such lies about me. From the viewpoint of a Jesuit priest I am, of course, and have always been an atheist.
Albert Einstein
Where the world ceases to be the scene of our personal hopes and wishes, where we face it as free beings admiring, asking and observing, there we enter the realm of Art and Science.
Albert Einstein
Where you see difficulty, I see opportunity.
Albert Einstein
No idea is conceived in our mind independent of our five senses [i.e., no idea is divinely inspired].
Albert Einstein
Even a fool is wise after an event.
Albert Einstein
As long as I have any choice in the matter, I shall live only in a country where civil liberty, tolerance and equality of all citizens before the law prevail.
Albert Einstein
