Though our conduct seems so very different from that of the higher animals, the primary instincts are much alike in them and in us.
Albert Einstein

Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.
Albert Einstein
Image
The indifference, callousness and contempt that so many people exhibit toward animals is evil first because it results in great suffering in animals, and second because it results in an incalculably great impoverishment of the human spirit.
Albert Einstein

Thus I came...to a deep religiosity, which, however, reached an abrupt end at the age of 12. Through the reading of popular scientific books I soon reached a conviction that much in the stories of the Bible could not be true....Suspicion against every kind of authority grew out of this experience...an attitude which has never left me.

Albert Einstein
Image
The stakes are immense, the task colossal, the time is short. But we may hope - we must hope - that man's own creation, man's own genius, will not destroy him.
Albert Einstein
Image
The most important human endeavor is the striving for morality in our actions. Our inner balance and even our very existence depend on it. Only morality in our actions can give beauty and dignity to life.
Albert Einstein
Image
There is separation of colored people from white people in the United States. That separation is not a disease of colored people. It is a disease of white people. I do not intend to be quiet about it.
Albert Einstein
Image
I know that philosophically a murderer is not responsible for his crime, but I prefer not to take tea with him.
Albert Einstein

Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Albert Einstein
Image
The world is a dangerous place to live not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it.
Albert Einstein
Image
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs.
Albert Einstein
Image
When you examine the lives of the most influential people who have ever walked among us, you discover one thread that winds through them all. They have been aligned first with their spiritual nature and only then with their physical selves.
Albert Einstein
Image
My feeling is religious insofar as I am imbued with the consciousness of the insufficiency of the human mind to understand more deeply the harmony of the Universe which we try to formulate as laws of nature.
