If I had my life to live over again, I would elect to be a trader of goods rather than a student of science. I think barter is a noble thing.

More quotes by 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
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
I agree with Schopenhauer that one of the most powerful motives that attracts people to science and art is the longing to escape from everyday life.
Albert Einstein
Genius abhors consensus because when consensus is reached, thinking stops. Stop nodding your head.
Albert Einstein
Measured objectively, what a man can wrest from Truth by passionate striving is utterly infinitesimal. But the striving frees us from the bonds of the self and makes us comrades of those who are the best and the greatest.
Albert Einstein
The best design is the simplest one that works.
Albert Einstein
Scarcely anyone who comprehends this theory can escape its magic.
Albert Einstein
Is it not better for a man to die for a cause in which he believes, such as peace, than to suffer for a cause in which he does not believe, such as war?
Albert Einstein
After a certain high level of technical skill is achieved science and art tend to coalesce in aesthetics, plasticity, and form. The greatest scientists are artists as well.
Albert Einstein
No problem is ever solved in the same consciousness thas was used to create it.
Albert Einstein
I am content in my later years. I have kept my good humor and take neither myself nor the next person seriously.
Albert Einstein
It is quite clear to me that the religious paradise of youth, which [I] lost, was a first attempt to free myself from the chains of the 'merely personal,' from an existence which is dominated by wishes, hopes, and primitive feelings.
Albert Einstein
People are like bicycles. They can keep their balance only as long as they keep moving.
Albert Einstein
It is our American habit if we find the foundations of our educational structure unsatisfactory to add another story or wing.
Albert Einstein
But their intervention makes our acts to serve ever less merely the immediate claims of our instincts.
Albert Einstein
A ship is safe at shore but it's not built for that.
Albert Einstein
The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.
Albert Einstein
Albert is a very poor student. He is mentally slow, unsociable and is always daydreaming. He is spoiling it for the rest of the class. It would be in the best interests of all if he were removed from school immediately.
Albert Einstein
If [quantum theory] is correct, it signifies the end of physics as a science.
Albert Einstein
From a certain temperature on, the molecules 'condense' without attractive forces that is, they accumulate at zero velocity. The theory is pretty, but is there some truth in it.
Albert Einstein
