Image
If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would have only four years of life left. No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man.
Albert Einstein
Image
Mere unbelief in a personal God is no philosophy at all.
Albert Einstein
Image
My only genius talent is inquisitiveness.
Albert Einstein
Image
[Kepler] had to realize clearly that logical-mathematical theoretizing, no matter how lucid, could not guarantee truth by itself that the most beautiful logical theory means nothing in natural science without comparison with the exactest experience. Without this philosophic attitude, his work would not have been possible.
Albert Einstein
Image
Thanks to my fortunate idea of introducing the relativity principle into physics, you (and others) now enormously overrate my scientific abilities, to the point where this makes me quite uncomfortable.
Albert Einstein
Image
The more a man is imbued with the ordered regularity of all events the firmer becomes his conviction that there is no room left by the side of this ordered regularity for causes of a different nature. For him neither the rule of human nor the rule of divine will exist as an independent cause of natural events.

Albert Einstein
Image
The release of atomic power has changed everything except our way of thinking ... the solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker. (1945)
Albert Einstein
Image
I didn't arrive at my understanding of the fundamental laws of the universe through my rational mind.
Albert Einstein
Image
You think you have troubles with mathematics . . . I assure you mine are still bigger.
Albert Einstein
Image
Occurrences in this domain are beyond the reach of exact prediction because of the variety of factors in operation, not because of any lack of order in nature.
Albert Einstein
Image
The years of anxious searching in the dark, with their intense longing, their alternations of confidence and exhaustion and the final emergence into the light -- only those who have experienced it can understand it.
Albert Einstein
Image
Imagination is greater than knowledge.
Albert Einstein
Image
The words of language, as they are written or spoken, do not seem to play any role in my mechanism of thought. The physical entities which seem to serve as elements in thought are certain signs and more or less clear images.
Albert Einstein
Image
I would teach peace rather than war, love rather than hate.
Albert Einstein
Image
The series of integers is obviously an invention of the human mind, a self-created tool which simplifies the ordering of certain sensory experiences.
Albert Einstein

I make it a rule not to clutter my mind with simple information that I can find in a book in five minutes.
