I have not eaten enough of the tree of knowledge, though in my profession I am obligated to feed on it regularly.
Albert Einstein
Image
If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker.
Albert Einstein
Image
If you cannot explain it simply, you do not understand it enough.
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
I could say analogously that tolerance is the affable appreciation of qualities, views, and actions of other individuals which are foreign to one`s own habits, beliefs, and tastes. Thus being tolerant does not mean being indifferent towards the actions and feelings of others. Understanding and empathy must also be present.

Do things sound better in your head before you say them, or do you even run them through there first?
Albert Einstein
Image
I am happy because I want nothing from anyone. I do not care for money. Decorations, titles or distinctions mean nothing to me. I do not crave praise. The only thing that gives me pleasure, apart from my work, my violin and my sailboat, is the appreciation of my fellow workers.

If there is any religion that could respond to the needs of modern science, it would be Buddhism.
Albert Einstein
Image
It strikes me as unfair, and even in bad taste, to select a few of them for boundless admiration, attributing superhuman powers of mind and character to them. This has been my fate, and the contrast between the popular estimate of my powers and achievements and the reality is simply grotesque.

When I think of the most able students I have encountered in my teaching - I mean those who have distinguished themselves not only by skill but by independence of thought - then I must confess that all have had a lively interest in epistemology.
Albert Einstein
Image
Every one who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the Universe-a spirit vastly superior to that of man, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble.
Albert Einstein
Image
Just as with the man in the fairy tale who turned whatever he touched into gold, with me everything is turned into newspaper clamor.
Albert Einstein

Jesus is too colossal for the pen of phrasemongers, however artful. No man can dispose of Christianity with a bon mot
Albert Einstein
Image
Don't listen to the person who has the answers listen to the person who has the questions.
Albert Einstein
Image
I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil.

Nothing happens unless something moves.

I want to be cremated so people won't come to worship at my bones.
Albert Einstein
Image
A problem defined, is a problem half solved.
Albert Einstein
Image
I am strongly drawn to the simple life and am often oppressed by the feeling that I am engrossing an unnecessary amount of the labour of my fellow men. I regard class differences as contrary to justice and, in the last resort, based on force. I also consider that plain living is good for everybody, physically and mentally.

To have a better life we must keep choosing how we are living.
