Adversity introduces a man to himself.
Albert Einstein
Image
I believe, indeed, that overemphasis on the purely intellectual attitude, often directed solely to the practical and factual, in our education, has led directly to the impairment of ethical values.
Albert Einstein
Image
If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.
Albert Einstein
Image
Any power must be an enemy of mankind which enslaves the individual by power and by force, whether it arises under the Fascist or the Communist flag. All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded to the individual.
Albert Einstein

To me it is enough to wonder at the secrets
Albert Einstein

You ask me if I keep a notebook to record my great ideas. I've only ever had one.
Albert Einstein

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
There is no place in this new kind of physics both for the field and matter, for the field is the only reality.
Albert Einstein
Image
The leader is one who, out of the clutter, brings simplicity... out of discord, harmony... and out of difficulty, opportunity.
Albert Einstein
Image
The right to search for truth implies also a duty.
Albert Einstein
Image
Princeton is a wonderful little spot. A quaint and ceremonious village of puny demigods on stilts.

Imagination rules the earth
Albert Einstein
Image
Although I tried to be universal in thought, I am European by instinct and inclination.
Albert Einstein
Image
When I was still a rather precocious young man, I already realized most vividly the futility of the hopes and aspirations that most men pursue throughout their lives.
Albert Einstein
Image
If I would be a young man again and had to decide how to make my living, I would not try to become a scientist or scholar or teacher. I would rather choose to be a plumber or a peddler in hope to find that modest degree of independence still available under present circumstances.
Albert Einstein

Imagination is greater than knowledge.
Albert Einstein

Don't listen to the person who has the answers listen to the person who has the questions.
Albert Einstein
