More quotes by Albert Einstein
All conditions and all circumstances in our lives are a result of a certain level of thinking. If we want to change the conditions and circumstances, we have to change the level of thinking that is responsible for it.
Albert Einstein
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
The religion of the future will be cosmic religion. It will transcend personal God and avoid dogma and theology.
Albert Einstein
The prestige of government has undoubtedly been lowered considerably by the prohibition law. For nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced. It is an open secret that the dangerous increase of crime in this country is closely connected with this.
Albert Einstein
There are two different conceptions about the nature of the universe: (1) the world as a unity dependent on humanity (2) the world as a reality independent of the human factor.
Albert Einstein
No one but a theorist believes his theory everyone puts faith in a laboratory result but the experimenter himself.
Albert Einstein
What a person thinks on his own without being stimulated by the thoughts and experiences of the other people is even in the best case rather paltry and monotonous.
Albert Einstein
Compounding is the 8th wonder of the world.
Albert Einstein
Thanks to my fortunate idea of introducing the relativity principle into physics, you (and others) now enormously overrate my scientific abilities, to the point where this makes me quite uncomfortable.
Albert Einstein
The splitting of the atom has changed everything except for how we think.
Albert Einstein
I am a deeply religious nonbeliever - this is a somewhat new kind of religion.
Albert Einstein
Anonymity is no excuse for stupidity.
Albert Einstein
A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts, and his feelings as something separate from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of consciousness.
Albert Einstein
But if the longing for the achievement of the goal is powerfully alive within us, then shall we not lack the strength to find the means for reaching the goal and for translating it into deeds.
Albert Einstein
Mere thinking cannot reveal to us the highest purpose.
Albert Einstein
But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people--first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy.
Albert Einstein
Do you believe in miracles? Well, you should. In fact, life itself is a big miracle. There are so many things that are beyond our understanding. There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle you can live as if everything is a miracle.
Albert Einstein
If I had foreseen Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I would have torn up my formula in 1905.
Albert Einstein
But the creative principle resides in mathematics. In a certain sense, therefore, I hold true that pure thought can grasp reality, as the ancients dreamed.
Albert Einstein
An oligarchy of private capital cannot be effectively checked even by a democratically organized political society because under existing conditions, private capitalists inevitably control, directly or indirectly, the main sources of information.
