More quotes by Albert Einstein
When the nazis came to power, I looked to the universities that prided themselves upon their intellectual freedom, and they failed me. I looked to the German press, which prided itself on the freedom of the press, and it failed me. Until at last the churches stood alone, and that for which I once had little regard earned my respect.
Albert Einstein
But in physics I soon learned to scent out the paths that led to the depths, and to disregard everything else, all the many things that clutter up the mind, and divert it from the essential. The hitch in this was, of course, the fact that one had to cram all this stuff into one's mind for the examination, whether one liked it or not.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
External conditions can, to a certain extent, reduce, but never cancel individual repsonsibility.
Albert Einstein
Genius is making complex ideas simple, not making simple ideas complex
Albert Einstein
It is true that my parents were worried because I began to speak fairly late, so that they even consulted a doctor. I can't say how old I was - but surely not less than three.
Albert Einstein
My comprehension of God comes from a deeply felt conviction of a superior intelligence that reveals itself in the knowable world.
Albert Einstein
Highly developed spirits often encounter resistance from mediocre minds.
Albert Einstein
Imagination is more powerful than knowledge.
Albert Einstein
Chess holds its master in its own bonds, shackling the mind and brain so that the inner freedom of the very strongest must suffer.
Albert Einstein
Success comes from curiosity, concentration, perseverance and self criticism.
Albert Einstein
We cannot get to where we dream of being tomorrow unless we change our thinking today.
Albert Einstein
Compound interest is the eighth natural wonder of the world and the most powerful thing I have ever encountered.
Albert Einstein
