More quotes by Albert Einstein
Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas. ... [By seeking] logical beauty spiritual formulas are discovered necessary for the deeper penetration into the laws of nature.
Albert Einstein
I am happy because I want nothing from anyone. I do not care for money. Decorations, titles or distinctions mean nothing to me. I do not crave praise. The only thing that gives me pleasure, apart from my work, my violin and my sailboat, is the appreciation of my fellow workers.
Albert Einstein
All such action would cease if those powerful elemental forces were to cease stirring within us.
Albert Einstein
Without changing our pattern of thought, we will not be able to solve the problems we created with our current patterns of thought
Albert Einstein
An autocratic system of coercion, in my opinion, soon degenerates. For force always attracts men of low morality, and I believe it to be an invariable rule that tyrants of genius are succeeded by scoundrels. For this reason I have always been passionately opposed to systems such as we see in Italy and Russia to-day.
Albert Einstein
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
The ideals which have always shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth.
Albert Einstein
If I were not a Jew I would be a Quaker.
Albert Einstein
Brief is this existence, as a visit in a strange house. The path to be pursued is poorly lit by a flickering consciousness.
Albert Einstein
A ship is safe at shore but it's not built for that.
Albert Einstein
The stupid are invincible.
Albert Einstein
It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty.
Albert Einstein
The war is won, but the peace is not.
Albert Einstein
To put it boldly, it is the attempt at a posterior reconstruction of existence by the process of conceptualization.
Albert Einstein
The health of society thus depends quite as much on the independence of the individuals composing it as on their close political cohesion.
Albert Einstein
I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms.
Albert Einstein
I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind.
Albert Einstein
Thus I came...to a deep religiosity, which, however, reached an abrupt end at the age of 12. Through the reading of popular scientific books I soon reached a conviction that much in the stories of the Bible could not be true....Suspicion against every kind of authority grew out of this experience...an attitude which has never left me.
Albert Einstein
Indeed, it is not intellect, but intuition which advances humanity. Intuition tells man his purpose in this life.
Albert Einstein
The finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion.
Albert Einstein
