More quotes by Albert Einstein
For science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgments of all kinds remain necessary. Religion, on the other hand, deals only with evaluations of human thought and action: it cannot justifiably speak of facts and relationships between facts.
Albert Einstein
It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.
Albert Einstein
All means prove but blunt instruments, if they have not behind them a living spirit.
Albert Einstein
Inner freedom is an infrequent gift of nature and a worthy object for the individual.
Albert Einstein
Although I cannot believe that the individual survives the death of his body, feeble souls harbor such thought through fear or ridiculous egotism.
Albert Einstein
As long as there will be a man, there will be wars.
Albert Einstein
For the most part, I do the thing which my own nature prompts me to do. It is embarrassing to earn so much respect and love for it.
Albert Einstein
I cannot accept any concept of God based on the fear of life or the fear of death, or blind faith. I cannot prove to you that there is no personal God, but if I were to speak of him I would be a liar.
Albert Einstein
No fairer destiny could be allotted to any physical theory than that it should of itself point out the way to the introduction of a more comprehensive theory, in which it lives on as a limiting case.
Albert Einstein
That little word 'we' I mistrust and here's why: No man of another can say, 'He is I.' Behind all agreement lies something amiss All seeming accord cloaks a lurking abyss.
Albert Einstein
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift.
Albert Einstein
I have always loved solitude, a trait which tends to increase with age.
Albert Einstein
Do not grow old, no matter how long you live. Never cease to stand like curious children before the Great Mystery into which we were born.
Albert Einstein
I am a Jew, but I am enthralled by the luminous figure of the Nazarene….No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus.
Albert Einstein
People start their lives at last when they are able to live for something other than themselves.
Albert Einstein
You can't solve your problems by using the same thinking that got you into those problems in the first place.
Albert Einstein
Every thoughtful, well-meaning and conscientious human being should assume in time of peace, the solemn and unconditional obligation not to participate in any war, for any reason or to lend support of any kind, whether direct or indirect.
Albert Einstein
As I have said so many times, God doesn't play dice with the world.
Albert Einstein
With all my heart I believe that the world's present system of sovereign nations can only lead to barbarism, war and inhumanity, and that only world law can assure progress towards a civilized peaceful community.
Albert Einstein
There is no greater satisfaction for a just and well-meaning person than the knowledge that he has devoted his best energies to the service of the good cause.
Albert Einstein
