More quotes by Albert Einstein
Small is the number of them that see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
Albert Einstein
Infinite striving to be the best is man's duty It is its own reward. Everything else is in god's hands. It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.
Albert Einstein
My deep religiosity [...] found an abrupt ending at the age of twelve, through the reading of popular scientific books.
Albert Einstein
Betterment of conditions the world over is not essentially dependent on scientific knowledge but on the fulfillment of human traditions and ideals.
Albert Einstein
Enough for me is the mystery of the eternity of life, and the inkling of the marvelous structure of reality. There is in this neither a will nor a goal, nor a must, but only sheer being.
Albert Einstein
Politics is for the present, but an equation is for eternity.
Albert Einstein
What a deep faith in the rationality of the structure of the world and what a longing to understand even a small glimpse of the reason revealed in the world there must have been in Kepler and Newton to enable them to unravel the mechanism of the heavens in long years of lonely work!
Albert Einstein
I am a deeply religious nonbeliever - this is a somewhat new kind of religion.
Albert Einstein
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
Relativity applies to physics, not ethics.
Albert Einstein
I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms.
Albert Einstein
We are here for the sake of others
Albert Einstein
Philosophy is empty if it isn't based on science. Science discovers, philosophy interprets.
Albert Einstein
Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.
Albert Einstein
The majority of the stupid is invincible and guaranteed for all time. The terror of their tyranny, however, is alleviated by their lack of consistency.
Albert Einstein
I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know God's thoughts, the rest are details.
Albert Einstein
Understanding physics is child's play when compared to understanding child's play.
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
No worthy problem is ever solved within the plane of its original conception.
Albert Einstein
It would be a sad situation if the bag was better than the meat wrapped in it.
Albert Einstein
