When you sit with a nice girl for two hours, it seems like two minutes when you sit on a hot stove for two minutes, it seems like two hours. That's relativity.

Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.

If [quantum theory] is correct, it signifies the end of physics as a science.
Albert Einstein

Mathematics deals exclusively with the relations of concepts to each other without consideration of their relation to experience.
Albert Einstein

The analogy I like is this imagine being able to see the world but you are deaf, and then suddenly someone gives you the ability to hear things as well - you get an extra dimension of perception.
Albert Einstein

I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious in ourselves. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension, nor do I wish it otherwise such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls.

I'm not an atheist. I don't think I can call myself a pantheist. The problem involved is too vast for our limited minds. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many languages. The child knows someone must have written those books.

If there is any religion that could respond to the needs of modern science, it would be Buddhism.
Albert Einstein
Image
If men as individuals surrender to the call of their elementary instincts, avoiding pain and seeking satisfaction only for their own selves, the result for them all taken together must be a state of insecurity, of fear, and of promiscuous misery.
Albert Einstein

Nature conceals her mystery by her essential grandeur.
Albert Einstein

We cannot despair about mankind knowing that Mozart was a man.
Albert Einstein
Image
Except in mathematics, the shortest distance between point A and point B is seldom a straight line. I don't believe in mathematics.
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.
