But the creative principle resides in mathematics. In a certain sense, therefore, I hold true that pure thought can grasp reality, as the ancients dreamed.

More quotes by Albert Einstein
God is a scientist, not a magician.
Albert Einstein
It's no accident that capitalism has brought with it progress, not merely in production but also in knowledge. Egoism and competition are, alas, stronger forces than public spirit and sense of duty.
Albert Einstein
A successful man is he who receives a great deal from his fellow men, usually incomparably more than corresponds to his service to them. The value of a man, however, should be seen in what he gives and not in what he is able to receive.
Albert Einstein
The world is an evil place to live in. Not for those who do evil, but for those who sit back and allow evil to occur.
Albert Einstein
I soon learned to scent out that which was able to lead to fundamentals and to turn aside from everything else, from the multitude of things which clutter up the mind and divert it from the essential.
Albert Einstein
The essentials of being a person of my type lies precisely in what they think and how they think, not in what they do. Your thoughts shape you.
Albert Einstein
We all try to escape pain and death, while we seek what is pleasant.
Albert Einstein
Striving for peace and preparing for war are incompatible with each other, and in our time more so than ever.
Albert Einstein
Most people go on living their everyday life: half-frightened, half indifferent, they behold the ghostly tragic-comedy that is being performed on the international stage before the eyes and ears of the world.
Albert Einstein
I asked myself childish questions and proceeded to answer them.
Albert Einstein
The only real valuable thing is intuition. The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery
Albert Einstein
You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war. The very prevention of war requires more faith, courage and resolution than are needed to prepare for war. We must all do our share, that we may be equal to the task of peace.
Albert Einstein
Out of clutter, find simplicity.
Albert Einstein
My sense of god is my sense of wonder about the universe.
Albert Einstein
In their struggle for the ethical good, teachers of religion must have the stature to give up the doctrine of a personal god.
Albert Einstein
I don't teach my students, I provide the circumstances in which they can learn.
Albert Einstein
There are two different conceptions about the nature of the universe: (1) the world as a unity dependent on humanity (2) the world as a reality independent of the human factor.
Albert Einstein
The idea of a Being who interferes with the sequence of events in the world is absolutely impossible
Albert Einstein
The mind can proceed only so far upon what it knows and can prove. There comes a point where the mind takes a higher plane of knowledge, but can never prove how it got there. All great discoveries have involved such a leap
Albert Einstein
The Universe is stranger than we imagine!
Albert Einstein
