The road to perdition has ever been accompanied by lip service to an ideal.
Albert Einstein
Image
Between the difficulties, one hides the opportunity
Albert Einstein
Image
I shall never believe that God plays dice with the world.
Albert Einstein
Image
The feeling for what ought and ought not to be grows and dies like a tree, and no fertilizer of any kind will do much good. What the individual can do is give a fine example, and have the courage to firmly uphold ethical convictions in a society of cynics. I have for a long time tried to conduct myself this way, with varying success.
Albert Einstein
Image
If I had only one hour to save the world, I would spend fifty-five minutes defining the problem, and only five minutes finding the solution.
Albert Einstein
Image
Have the courage to take your own thoughts seriously, for they will shape you.
Albert Einstein

How many people are trapped in their everyday habits: part numb, part frightened, part indifferent? To have a better life we must keep choosing how we are living.
Albert Einstein
Image
Man owes his strength in the struggle for existence to the fact that he is a social animal.
Albert Einstein
Image
I cannot seriously believe in it [quantum theory] because the theory cannot be reconciled with the idea that physics should represent a reality in time and space, free from spooky actions at a distance [spukhafte Fernwirkungen].
Albert Einstein
Image
Not until the creation and maintenance of decent conditions of life for all men are recognized and accepted as a common obligation of all men and all countries — not until then shall we, with a certain degree of justification, be able to speak of mankind as civilized.
Albert Einstein
Image
Student is not a container you have to fill but a torch you have to light up.
Albert Einstein
Image
Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.
Albert Einstein
Image
The ideals which have always shone before me and filled me with the joy of living are goodness, beauty, and truth. To make a goal of comfort or happiness has never appealed to me a system of ethics built on this basis would be sufficient only for a herd of cattle.
Albert Einstein
Image
By an application of the theory of relativity to the taste of readers, today in Germany I am called a German man of science, and in England I am represented as a Swiss Jew. If I come to be represented as a bête noire, the descriptions will be reversed, and I shall become a Swiss Jew for the Germans and a German man of science for the English!
Albert Einstein
Image
Every thoughtful, well-meaning and conscientious human being should assume in time of peace, the solemn and unconditional obligation not to participate in any war, for any reason or to lend support of any kind, whether direct or indirect.
Albert Einstein
Image
Hunger, love, pain, fear are some of those inner forces which rule the individual's instinct for self preservation.
Albert Einstein
Image
One should respect an honest person even if he expresses opinions differing from one's own.
Albert Einstein
Image
We are here for the sake of others
Albert Einstein
Image
The difference between what the most and the least learned people know is inexpressibly trivial in relation to that which is unknown.
Albert Einstein
Image
Everything that can be counted does not necessarily count everything that counts cannot necessarily be counted.
