More quotes by Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Whoever is devoid of the capacity to wonder, whoever remains unmoved, whoever cannot contemplate or know the deep shudder of the soul in enchantment, might just as well be dead for he has already closed his eyes upon life.
Albert Einstein
The height of stupidity is most clearly demonstrated by the individual who ridicules something he knows nothing about.
Albert Einstein
(Reply on what constitutes scientific proof:)The question is much too difficult for me.
Albert Einstein
You never fail until you stop trying.

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Sometimes one pays most for the things one gets for nothing.
Albert Einstein
It's not that life has been easy, perfect or exactly as expected. I just choose to be happy and grateful no matter how it all turns out. If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.
Albert Einstein
A hundred times every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of others.
Albert Einstein
Imagination rules the earth
Albert Einstein
Where the world ceases to be the scene of our personal hopes and wishes, where we face it as free beings admiring, asking and observing, there we enter the realm of Art and Science.
Albert Einstein
Curiosity is its own reason.
Albert Einstein
I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know God's thoughts, the rest are details.
Albert Einstein
