More quotes by Albert Einstein

Image
I believe that the first step in the setting of a real external world is the formation of the concept of bodily objects and of bodily objects of various kinds.
Albert Einstein
Image
Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem to characterize our age. If we desire sincerely and passionately the safety, the welfare and the free development of the talents of all men, we shall not be in want of the means to approach such a state.
Albert Einstein
Image
As for the search for truth, I know from my own painful searching, with its many blind alleys, how hard it is to take a reliable step, be it ever so small, towards the understanding of that which is truly significant.
Albert Einstein
Image
The gravity is the first thing which you don't think
Albert Einstein
Image
We cannot despair about mankind knowing that Mozart was a man.
Albert Einstein
Image
A religious person is devout in the sense that he has no doubt about the significance of those superpersonal objects and goals which neither require nor are capable of rational foundation
Albert Einstein
Image
The word 'God' is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, and religious scripture a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation, no matter how subtle, can (for me) change this.
Albert Einstein
Image
How can any educated person stay away from the Greeks? I have always been far more interested in them than in science.
Albert Einstein
Image
We should be on our guard not to overestimate science and scientific methods when it is a question of human problems, and we should not assume that experts are the only ones who have the right to express themselves on questions affecting the organization of society.
Albert Einstein
Image
[Newton wrote to Halley ... that he would not give Hooke any credit] That, alas, is vanity. You find it in so many scientists. You know, it has always hurt me to think that Galileo did not acknowledge the work of Kepler.
Albert Einstein
Image
...behind all the discernible laws and connections, there remains something subtle, intangible and inexplicable.
Albert Einstein
Image
Conceptions without experience are void experience without conceptions is blind.
Albert Einstein
Image
If you are out to describe the truth, leave elegance to the tailor. On being reproached that his formula of gravitation was longer and more cumbersome than Newton's.
Albert Einstein
Image
Logic can take you from point A to point B. Imagination can take you wherever you want
Albert Einstein
Image
Science is the century-old endeavor to bring together by means of systematic thought the perceptible phenomena of this world into as thorough-going an association as possible.
Albert Einstein
Image
If I were to remain silent, I'd be guilty of complicity.
Albert Einstein
Image
A bartender is just a pharmacist with a limited inventory.
Albert Einstein
Image
He who has never been deceived by a lie does not know the meaning of bliss.
Albert Einstein
Image
Formerly, people thought that if matter disappeared from the universe, space and time would remain. Relativity declares that space and time would disappear with matter.
Albert Einstein
Image
Nothing happens until something moves. When something vibrates, the electrons of the entire universe resonate with it. Everything is connected.
