Imagination is more valuable than information.
Albert Einstein
Image
Science can only state what is, not what should be.
Albert Einstein
Image
As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it.
Albert Einstein
Image
I never think of the future. It comes soon enough. When visiting the U.S. from Germany for a winter academic stay.
Albert Einstein
Image
He who finds though that lets us penetrate even a little deeper into the eternal mystery of nature has been granted great grace. He who, in addition, experiences the recognition, sympathy, and help of the best minds of his times, had been given almost more happiness than one man can bear.
Albert Einstein
Image
Try not to become a man of success, but a man of value. Look around at how people want to get more out of life than they put in. A man of value will give more than he receives. Be creative, but make sure that what you create is not a curse for mankind.
Albert Einstein
Image
Creativity is the residue of time wasted.
Albert Einstein
Image
To the Master's honor all must turn, each in its track, without a sound, forever tracing Newton's ground.
Albert Einstein
Image
What is significant in one's own existence one is hardly aware, and it certainly should not bother the other fellow. What does a fish know about the water in which he swims all his life?
Albert Einstein
Image
If I had my life to live over again, I would elect to be a trader of goods rather than a student of science. I think barter is a noble thing.
Albert Einstein
Image
The ideals which have always shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth.
Albert Einstein
Image
The more cruel the wrong that men commit against an individual or a people, the deeper their hatred and contempt for their victim.
Albert Einstein
Image
A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin what else does a man need to be happy.
Albert Einstein
Image
Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.
Albert Einstein
Image
Only world law can assure progress towards a civilized peaceful community.
Albert Einstein
Image
The theoretical idea ... does not arise apart from and independent of experience nor can it be derived from experience by a purely logical procedure. It is produced by a creative act. Once a theoretical idea has been acquired, one does well to hold fast to it until it leads to an untenable conclusion.
Albert Einstein
Image
Were I wrong, one professor would have been enough.
Albert Einstein
Image
But in physics I soon learned to scent out the paths that led to the depths, and to disregard everything else, all the many things that clutter up the mind, and divert it from the essential. The hitch in this was, of course, the fact that one had to cram all this stuff into one's mind for the examination, whether one liked it or not.
Albert Einstein

Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.
Albert Einstein

Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.
