More quotes by Albert Einstein

Image
Feeling and longing are the motive forces behind all human endeavor and human creations.
Albert Einstein
Image
What counts can't always be counted what can be counted doesn't always count.
Albert Einstein
Image
I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil.
Albert Einstein
Image
How can it be that mathematics, being after all a product of human thought which is independent of experience, is so admirably appropriate to the objects of reality?
Albert Einstein
Image
... a person who is religiously enlightened appears to me to be one who has, to the best of his ability, liberated himself from the fetters of his selfish desires and is preoccupied with thoughts, feelings, and aspirations to which he clings because of their superpersonal value.
Albert Einstein
Image
The more success the quantum theory has, the sillier it looks
Albert Einstein
Image
The trite objects of human efforts-possessions, superficial success, luxury-have always seemed contemptible to me.
Albert Einstein
Image
Love is not the stupidest thing a man does, but it cannot be blamed on gravity.
Albert Einstein
Image
It is not so important where one settles down. The best thing is to follow your instincts without too much reflection.
Albert Einstein
Image
What I see in Nature is a magnificent structure that we can comprehend only very imperfectly, and that must fill a thinking person with a feeling of humility. This is a genuinely religious feeling that has nothing to do with mysticism.
Albert Einstein
Image
One should not pursue goals that are easily achieved. One must develop an instinct for what one can just barely achieve through one’s greatest efforts.
Albert Einstein
Image
Love is a better teacher than duty.
Albert Einstein
Image
E=mc2. Energy equals mass times the speed of light squared
Albert Einstein
Image
I prefer an attitude of humility corresponding to the weakness of our intellectual understanding of nature and of our own being.
Albert Einstein
Image
You are the only person I know who has the same attitude towards physics as I have: belief in the comprehension of reality through something basically simple and unified... It seems hard to sneak a look at God's cards. But that He plays dice and uses 'telepathic' methods... is something that I cannot believe for a single moment.
Albert Einstein
Image
It is humankind's duty to respect all life, not only animals have feelings but even also trees and plants.
Albert Einstein
Image
My scientific work is motivated by an irresistible longing to understand the secrets of nature and by no other feeling. My love for justice and striving to contribute towards the improvement of human conditions are quite independent from my scientific interests.
Albert Einstein
Image
I am a determinist. As such, I do not believe in free will. The Jews believe in free will. They believe that man shapes his own life. I reject that doctrine philosophically. In that respect I am not a Jew.
Albert Einstein
Image
In quitting this strange world he has once again preceded me by a little. That doesn't mean anything. For those of us who believe in physics, this separation between past, present, and future is only an illusion, however tenacious.
Albert Einstein
Image
I should much rather see a reasonable agreement with Arabs based upon living together than the creation of a Jewish state.
