Nothing happens unless something moves.
Albert Einstein

Mathematics deals exclusively with the relations of concepts to each other without consideration of their relation to experience.
Albert Einstein
Image
Most of the fundamental ideas of science are essentially simple, and may, as a rule, be expressed in a language comprehensible to everyone.
Albert Einstein

Nothing happens until something moves.
Albert Einstein

When the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large scientific method in most cases fails. One need only think of the weather, in which case the prediction even for a few days ahead is impossible.
Albert Einstein
Image

Albert Einstein
Image
No idea is conceived in our mind independent of our five senses [i.e., no idea is divinely inspired].
Albert Einstein

The cult of individual personalities is always, in my view, unjustified. To be sure, nature distributes her gifts variously among her children. But there are plenty of the well-endowed ones too, thank God, and I am firmly convinced that most of them live quiet, unregarded lives.
Albert Einstein
Image
In matters of trust and justice there can be no distinction between big problems and small, for the general principles which determine the conduct of men are indivisible. Whoever is careless with the truth in small matters cannot be trusted in important affairs.

A country cannot simultaneously prepare and prevent war.
Albert Einstein
Image
You cannot prevent and prepare for war at the same time.
Albert Einstein
Image
I don't teach my students, I provide the circumstances in which they can learn.
Albert Einstein
Image
The future is not a gift-it is an achievement.
Albert Einstein
Image
It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty.
Albert Einstein
Image
What use are socks? They only produce holes.
Albert Einstein
Image
Work is the only thing I do to escape the corruption of praise.
Albert Einstein
Image
The distinction between the past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.
Albert Einstein
Image
I have never obtained any ethical values from my scientific work.
Albert Einstein
Image
Although I cannot believe that the individual survives the death of his body, feeble souls harbor such thought through fear or ridiculous egotism.
Albert Einstein
