Life isn't worth living, unless it is lived for someone else.
Albert Einstein
Image
Where the world ceases to be the scene of our personal hopes and wishes, where we face it as free beings admiring, asking and observing, there we enter the realm of Art and Science.
Albert Einstein
Image
We know nothing at all. All our knowledge is but the knowledge of schoolchildren. The real nature of things we shall never know.
Albert Einstein
Image
The cult of individual personalities is always, in my view, unjustified. To be sure, nature distributes her gifts variously among her children. But there are plenty of the well-endowed ones too, thank God, and I am firmly convinced that most of them live quiet, unregarded lives.
Albert Einstein
Image
The mere formulation of a problem is far more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skills. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination and marks real advances in science.
Albert Einstein
Image
Nothing that I can do or say will change the structure of the universe. But maybe, by raising my voice, I can help the greatest of all causes — good will among men and peace on earth.
Albert Einstein
Image
In my relativity theory I set up a clock at every point in space, but in reality I find it difficult to provide even one clock in my room.
Albert Einstein
Image
I see in Nature a magnificent structure... that must fill a thinking person with a feeling of humility.
Albert Einstein
Image
No matter how we may single out a complex from nature...its theoretical treatment will never prove to be ultimately conclusive... I believe that this process of deepening of theory has no limits.
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
I refuse to make money out of my science. My laurel is not for sale like so many bales of cotton.
Albert Einstein
Image
Common sense consists of those layers of prejudice laid down before the age of 18.
Albert Einstein
Image
Relativity is a purely scientific matter and has nothing to do with religion.
Albert Einstein
Image
Everybody should be ashamed who uses the wonders of science and engineering without thinking and having mentally realized not more of it than a cow realizes of the botany of the plants which it eats with pleasure.
Albert Einstein
Image
Humiliation and mental oppression by ignorant and selfish teachers wreak havoc in the youthful mind that can never be undone and often exert a baleful influence in later life.
Albert Einstein
Image
The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.
Albert Einstein
Image
Never lose a holy curiosity. Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value. He is considered successful in our day who gets more out of life than he puts in. But a man of value will give more than he receives.
Albert Einstein
Image
If you can't explain something simply, you don't know enough about it.
Albert Einstein
Image
Just because you believe in something does not mean that it is true.
Albert Einstein
Image
The world we have created is a product of our thinking it cannot be changed without changing our thinking. If we want to change the world we have to change our thinking...no problem can be solved from the same consciousness that created it. We must learn to see the world anew.
Albert Einstein
