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
Image
We must begin to inculcate our children against militarism by educating them in the spirit of pacifism. Our schoolbooks glorify war and conceal it's horror. I would teach peace rather than war.
Albert Einstein
Image
What really interests me is whether God had any choice in the creation of the World.
Albert Einstein
Image
It is certainly true that principles cannot be more securely founded than on experience and consciously clear thinking.
