More quotes by Albert Einstein
Epistemology without contact with science becomes an empty scheme. Science without epistemology is-insofar as it is thinkable at all-primitive and muddled.
Albert Einstein
The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.
Albert Einstein
A hundred times every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of others.
Albert Einstein
Incompetence is the true crisis.
Albert Einstein
I no longer believed in the known God of the Bible, but rather in the mysterious God expressed in nature.
Albert Einstein
The height of stupidity is most clearly demonstrated by the individual who ridicules something he knows nothing about.
Albert Einstein
War cannot be humanized. It can only be abolished.
Albert Einstein
Science is the century-old endeavor to bring together by means of systematic thought the perceptible phenomena of this world into as thorough-going an association as possible.
Albert Einstein
The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. It is the source of all true art and science. He who knows it not and can no longer wonder, no longer feel amazement, is as good as dead, a snuffed-out candle.
Albert Einstein
Numerous are the academic professors, but rare are wise and noble teachers.
Albert Einstein
In every true searcher of Nature there is a kind of religious reverence.
Albert Einstein
You do not really understand something unless you can explain it to your grandmother.
Albert Einstein
[Ernest Rutherford is]...a second Newton.
Albert Einstein
Common sense consists of those layers of prejudice laid down before the age of 18.
Albert Einstein
E=mc2. Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared. The original statement is: If a body gives off the energy L in the form of radiation, its mass diminishes by L/c2. Ist die Tragheit eines Korpers von Seinem Energieghalt Abhangig? 1905
Albert Einstein
Everything is determined, the beginning as well as the end, by forces over which we have no control. It is determined for the insect, as well as for the star. Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper.
Albert Einstein
Success comes from curiosity, concentration, perseverance and self criticism.
Albert Einstein
Mathematics deals exclusively with the relations of concepts to each other without consideration of their relation to experience.
Albert Einstein
All means prove but blunt instruments, if they have not behind them a living spirit.
Albert Einstein
There is not the slightest indication that nuclear energy will ever be obtainable. It would mean that the atom would have to be shattered at will.
Albert Einstein
