More quotes by Albert Einstein
Arrows of hate have been aimed at me too, but they have never hit me, because somehow they belonged to another world with which I have no connection whatsoever.
Albert Einstein
Do you remember how electrical currents and 'unseen waves' were laughed at? The knowledge about man is still in its infancy.
Albert Einstein
Those who believe that politics and religion do not mix, understand neither.
Albert Einstein
Epistemology without contact with science becomes an empty scheme. Science without epistemology is-insofar as it is thinkable at all-primitive and muddled.
Albert Einstein
It has become appallingly clear that our technology has surpassed our humanity. I hope that someday, our humanity might yet surpass our technology.
Albert Einstein
Don't listen to their words, fix your attention on their deeds.
Albert Einstein
Good acts are like good poems. One may easily get their drift, but they are not rationally understood.
Albert Einstein
Ethical axioms are found and tested not very differently from the axioms of science. Truth is what stands the test of experience.
Albert Einstein
It may be possible to fight intolerance, stupidity, and fanaticism seperately, but when they come together there is no hope.
Albert Einstein
Do you believe in miracles? Well, you should. In fact, life itself is a big miracle. There are so many things that are beyond our understanding. There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle you can live as if everything is a miracle.
Albert Einstein
Gradually the conviction gained recognition that all knowledge about things is exclusively a working-over of the raw material furnished by the senses. ... Galileo and Hume first upheld this principle with full clarity and decisiveness.
Albert Einstein
The future is of greater interest to me than the past, since that is where I intend to spend the rest of my life.
Albert Einstein
If I give you a pfennig, you will be one pfennig richer and I'll be one pfennig poorer. But if I give you an idea, you will have a new idea, but I shall still have it too.
Albert Einstein
Student is not a container you have to fill but a torch you have to light up.
Albert Einstein
If you want to know the future, look at the past.
Albert Einstein
To act intelligently in human affairs is only possible if an attempt is made to understand the thoughts, motives, and apprehension of one's opponent so fully that one can see the world through their eyes.
Albert Einstein
The word God is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses.
Albert Einstein
I have made no secret, either privately or publicly, of any sense of outrage over officially enforced military and war service. I regard it as a duty of conscience to fight against such barbarous enslavement of the individual with every means available.
Albert Einstein
Time is relative its only worth depends upon what we do as it is passing.
Albert Einstein
But their intervention makes our acts to serve ever less merely the immediate claims of our instincts.
Albert Einstein
