I prefer to make up my own quotes and attribute them to very smart people, so that I can use them to win arguments
Albert Einstein

Time and space are modes by which we think and not conditions in which we live.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Image
At the same time, as social beings, we are moved in the relations with our fellow beings by such feelings as sympathy, pride, hate, need for power, pity, and so on.
Albert Einstein
Image
One always likes to do the things for which one has ability.
Albert Einstein
Image
If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.
Albert Einstein
Image
Creativity is the residue of time wasted.
Albert Einstein
Image
Matter is real to my senses, but they aren't trustworthy. If Galileo or Copernicus had accepted what they saw, they would never have discovered the movement of the earth and planets.
Albert Einstein
Image
Education is not received. It is achieved.
Albert Einstein
Image
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.
