More quotes by Albert Einstein

Image
Genius abhors consensus because when consensus is reached, thinking stops. Stop nodding your head.
Albert Einstein
Image
The life of the individual has meaning only insofar as it aids in making the life of every living thing nobler and more beautiful. Life is sacred, that is to say, it is the supreme value, to which all other values are subordinate.
Albert Einstein
Image
Good acts are like good poems. One may easily get their drift, but they are not rationally understood.
Albert Einstein
Image
Striving for peace and preparing for war are incompatible with each other, and in our time more so than ever.
Albert Einstein
Image
Too many of us look upon Americans as dollar chasers. This is a cruel libel, even if it is reiterated thoughtlessly by the Americans themselves.
Albert Einstein

I cannot then believe in this concept of an anthropomorphic God who has the powers of interfering with these natural laws. As I said before, the most beautiful and most profound religious emotion that we can experience is the sensation of the mystical. And this mysticality is the power of all true science.
Albert Einstein
Image
My primary process of perceiving is muscular and visual.
Albert Einstein
Image

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Image
He who finds though that lets us penetrate even a little deeper into the eternal mystery of nature has been granted great grace. He who, in addition, experiences the recognition, sympathy, and help of the best minds of his times, had been given almost more happiness than one man can bear.
Albert Einstein
Image
I'd rather be an optimist and a fool than a pessimist and right.
Albert Einstein
Image
Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding. You cannot subjugate a nation forcibly unless you wipe out every man, woman, and child. Unless you wish to use such drastic measures, you must find a way of settling your disputes without resort to arms.
Albert Einstein
Image
Common sense invents and constructs no less than its own field than science does in its domain. It is, however, in the nature of common sense not to be aware of this situation.
Albert Einstein
Image
The field is the sole influence of the particle.
Albert Einstein
Image
All of us who are concerned for peace and triumph of reason and justice must be keenly aware how small an influence reason and honest good will exert upon events in the political field.
Albert Einstein

This is what the painter, the poet, the speculative philosopher, and the natural scientists do, each in his own fashion.
