More quotes by Albert Einstein
The faster you go, the shorter you are.
Albert Einstein
It would be a sad situation if the bag was better than the meat wrapped in it.
Albert Einstein
I'm not an atheist. I don't think I can call myself a pantheist. The problem involved is too vast for our limited minds. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many languages. The child knows someone must have written those books.
Albert Einstein
The world we have made is a result of the level of thinking we have done thus far.
Albert Einstein
What use are socks? They only produce holes.
Albert Einstein
Though our conduct seems so very different from that of the higher animals, the primary instincts are much alike in them and in us.
Albert Einstein
Strange is our situation here on earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose.
Albert Einstein
We must remember that we do not observe nature as it actually exists, but nature exposed to our methods of perception. The theories determine what we can or cannot observe...Reality is an illusion, albeit a persistent one.
Albert Einstein
In living through this great epoch, it is difficult to reconcile oneself to the fact that one belongs to that mad, degenerate species that boasts of its free will. How I wish that somewhere there existed an island for those who are wise and of good will. In such a place even I should be an ardent patriot!
Albert Einstein
Insofar as mathematics is true, it does not describe the real world. Insofar as it describes the real world, it is not true.
Albert Einstein
Human beings, vegetables, or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper.
Albert Einstein
At present every coachman and every waiter argues about whether or not the relativity theory is correct.
Albert Einstein
If you want to make your children brilliant, tell them fairy tales. If you want to make them more brilliant, tell them more fairy tales.
Albert Einstein
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.
Albert Einstein
It is only to the individual that a soul is given.
Albert Einstein
If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x y is play and z is keeping your mouth shut
Albert Einstein
Rejoice with your family in the beautiful land of life.
Albert Einstein
Whatever there is of God and goodness in the universe, it must work itself out and express itself through us. We cannot stand aside and let God do it.
Albert Einstein
What is the meaning of human life, or of organic life altogether? To answer this question at all implies a religion.
Albert Einstein
That which is impenetrable to us really exists. Behind the secrets of nature remains something subtle, intangible, and inexplicable. Veneration for this force beyond anything that we can comprehend is my religion.
Albert Einstein
