More quotes by Albert Einstein
While it is true that science, to the extent of its grasp of causative connections, may reach important conclusions as to the compatibility and incompatibility of goals and evaluations, the independent and fundamental definitions regarding goals and values remain beyond science's reach.
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
Scientists investigate that which already is Engineers create that which has never been.
Albert Einstein
Somebody who only reads newspapers and at best books of contemporary authors looks to me like an extremely near-sighted person who scorns eyeglasses. He is completely dependent on the prejudices and fashions of his times, since he never gets to see or hear anything else.
Albert Einstein
Anyone who thinks science is trying to make human life easier or more pleasant is utterly mistaken.
Albert Einstein
The only source of knowledge is experience.
Albert Einstein
Science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgements of all kinds remain necessary.
Albert Einstein
There are two different conceptions about the nature of the universe: (1) the world as a unity dependent on humanity (2) the world as a reality independent of the human factor.
Albert Einstein
People start their lives at last when they are able to live for something other than themselves.
Albert Einstein
Peace comes through understanding
Albert Einstein
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift.
Albert Einstein
We know nothing at all. All our knowledge is but the knowledge of schoolchildren. The real nature of things we shall never know.
Albert Einstein
They come into being not through demonstration but through revelation, through the medium of powerful personalities.
Albert Einstein
Yes, we now have to divide up our time like that, between politics and our equations. But to me our equations are far more important, for politics are only a matter of present concern. A mathematical equation stands forever.
Albert Einstein
You accept the historical Jesus?
Albert Einstein
I never said half the crap people said I did.
Albert Einstein
Chess holds its master in its own bonds, shackling the mind and brain so that the inner freedom of the very strongest must suffer.
Albert Einstein
You can't use an old map to explore a new world.
Albert Einstein
Thanks to my fortunate idea of introducing the relativity principle into physics, you (and others) now enormously overrate my scientific abilities, to the point where this makes me quite uncomfortable.
Albert Einstein
Each of us is here for a brief sojourn for what purpose he knows not, though he sometimes thinks he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.
Albert Einstein
