More quotes by Albert Einstein
Now to the term 'relativity theory.' I admit that it is unfortunate, and has given occasion to philosophical misunderstandings.
Albert Einstein
I should very much like to remain in the darkness of not having been analyzed.
Albert Einstein
The bitter and the sweet come from the outside, the hard from within, from one's own efforts.
Albert Einstein
Philosophers play with the word, like a child with a doll.... It does not mean that everything in life is relative.
Albert Einstein
For any one who is pervaded with the sense of causal law in all that happens, who accepts in real earnest the assumption of causality, the idea of a Being who interferes with the sequence of events in the world is absolutely impossible. Neither the religion of fear nor the social-moral religion can have any hold on him.
Albert Einstein
Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.
Albert Einstein
We should take care not to make the intellect our god it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.
Albert Einstein
School failed me, and I failed the school. It bored me. The teachers behaved like Feldwebel (sergeants). I wanted to learn what I wanted to know, but they wanted me to learn for the exam. What I hated most was the competitive system there, and especially sports. Because of this, I wasn't worth anything, and several times they suggested I leave.
Albert Einstein
There is a driving force more powerful than steam, electricity and nuclear power: the will.
Albert Einstein
To one bent on age, death will come as a release. I feel this quite strongly now that I have grown old myself and have come to regard death like an old debt, at long last to be discharged.
Albert Einstein
I must seem like an ostrich who forever burries its head in the relativistic sands in order not to face the evil quanta.
Albert Einstein
Everyone knew it was impossible, until a fool who didn't know came along and did it.
Albert Einstein
Do you remember how electrical currents and 'unseen waves' were laughed at? The knowledge about man is still in its infancy.
Albert Einstein
It is high time the ideal of success should be replaced with the ideal of service.
Albert Einstein
I never think of the future. It comes soon enough. When visiting the U.S. from Germany for a winter academic stay.
Albert Einstein
The scientist finds his reward in what Henri Poincare calls the joy of comprehension, and not in the possibility of application to which any discovery may lead.
Albert Einstein
Games are the most elevated form of investigation.
Albert Einstein
While you're trying to get ahead, remember to get aheart as well. When your only problem IS a nail, all you want is a decent hammer. There are only two ways to live your life: one is as though nothing is a miracle the other is as though everything is a miracle.
Albert Einstein
Concern for man and his fate must always form the chief interest of all technical endeavors. Never forget this in the midst of your diagrams and equations.
Albert Einstein
The strongest force in the universe is Compound Interest.
Albert Einstein
