More quotes by Albert Einstein
Had I known that the Germans would not succeed in producing an atomic bomb, I would not have lifted a finger.
Albert Einstein
The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything except our thinking. Thus, we are drifting toward catastrophe beyond conception. We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.
Albert Einstein
It is both auspicious and peaceful for people to choose vegetarinism.
Albert Einstein
I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his [sic] creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious ourselves.
Albert Einstein
Small is the number of them that see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
Albert Einstein
The formulation of the problem is often more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skill.
Albert Einstein
The pursuit of knowledge is more valuable than its possession.
Albert Einstein
Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem to characterize our age. If we desire sincerely and passionately the safety, the welfare and the free development of the talents of all men, we shall not be in want of the means to approach such a state.
Albert Einstein
The Universe is difficult to comprehend because it is obvious.
Albert Einstein
Everybody acts not only under external compulsion but also in accordance with inner necessity.
Albert Einstein
It is our American habit if we find the foundations of our educational structure unsatisfactory to add another story or wing.
Albert Einstein
It's not that I'm so smart.
Albert Einstein
One must take what nature gives as one finds it.
Albert Einstein
The process of scientific discovery is, in effect, a continual flight from wonder.
Albert Einstein
I now see the necessity of a beginning.
Albert Einstein
The ability to portray people in still life and in motion requires the highest measure of intuition and talent.
Albert Einstein
Go out as far as you can go and start from there
Albert Einstein
Epistemology without contact with science becomes an empty scheme. Science without epistemology is-insofar as it is thinkable at all-primitive and muddled.
Albert Einstein
In my personal experience I have hardly come to know the wretchedness of mankind better than as a result of the general theory of relativity and everything connected to it. But it doesn't bother me.
Albert Einstein
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Albert Einstein
