It was the experience of mystery - even if mixed with fear - that engendered religion.
Albert Einstein
Image
Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.
Albert Einstein

School failed me, and I failed the school. It bored me. The teachers behaved like Feldwebel (sergeants). I wanted to learn what I wanted to know, but they wanted me to learn for the exam. What I hated most was the competitive system there, and especially sports. Because of this, I wasn't worth anything, and several times they suggested I leave.
Albert Einstein
Image
[Kepler] had to realize clearly that logical-mathematical theoretizing, no matter how lucid, could not guarantee truth by itself that the most beautiful logical theory means nothing in natural science without comparison with the exactest experience. Without this philosophic attitude, his work would not have been possible.

The word 'God' is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, and religious scripture a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation, no matter how subtle, can (for me) change this.
Albert Einstein
Image
Relativity is a purely scientific matter and has nothing to do with religion.
Albert Einstein
Image
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
Image
[Ernest Rutherford is]...a second Newton.
Albert Einstein
Image
Example isn't another way to teach, it is the only way to teach.
Albert Einstein

It is easier to denature plutonium than to denature the evil spirit of man.
Albert Einstein
Image
Rejoice with your family in the beautiful land of life.
Albert Einstein
Image
The foundation of morality should not be made dependent on myth nor tied to any authority lest doubt about the myth or about the legitimacy of the authority imperil the foundation of sound judgment and action.
Albert Einstein
Image
Any brief military advantage the USA might gain with nuclear weapons would be offset by political and psychological losses and damage to American prestige. The United States might even touch off a worldwide armaments race.
Albert Einstein

Women always worry about things that men forget men always worry about things women remember.
