Albert Einstein
Image
I see a pattern, but my imagination cannot picture the maker of that pattern. I see a clock, but I cannot envision the clockmaker. The human mind is unable to conceive of the four dimensions, so how can it conceive of a God, before whom a thousand years and a thousand dimensions are as one?
Albert Einstein
Image
It is impossible to get out of a problem by using the same kind of thinking that it took to get into it.
Albert Einstein
Image
Einstein was once asked how many feet are in a mile. Einstein's reply was I don't know, why should I fill my brain with facts I can find in two minutes in any standard reference book?
Albert Einstein
Image
As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it.
Albert Einstein
Image
Imagination is more important than knowledge. Imagination is the language of the soul. Pay attention to your imagination and you will discover all you need to be fulfilled.
Albert Einstein
Image
Science has brought forth this danger, but the real problem is in the minds and hearts of men.
Albert Einstein
