Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Mere unbelief in a personal God is no philosophy at all.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
We dance for laughter, we dance for tears, we dance for madness, we dance for fears, we dance for hopes, we dance for screams, we are the dancers, we create the dreams.
Albert Einstein
The payment of the worker is not determined by the value of his product.
Albert Einstein
There have already been published by the bucketsful such brazen lies and utter fictions about me that I would long since have gone to my grave if I had allowed myself to pay attention to them.
Albert Einstein
