More quotes by Albert Einstein
All the fifty years of conscious brooding have brought me no closer to answer the question, What are light quanta? Of course today every rascal thinks he knows the answer, but he is deluding himself.
Albert Einstein
My intellectual development was retarded, as a result of which I began to wonder about space and time only when I had already grown up.
Albert Einstein
Fortunate Newton, happy childhood of science. Nature to him was an open book. He stands before us strong, certain, and alone.
Albert Einstein
Perfection of means and confusion of goals seem to characterize our age. If we desire sincerely and passionately the safety, the welfare and the free development of the talents of all men, we shall not be in want of the means to approach such a state.
Albert Einstein
The discovery of nuclear chain reactions need not bring about the destruction of mankind any more than did the discovery of matches. We only must do everything in our power to safeguard against its abuse. Only a supranational organization, equipped with a sufficiently strong executive power, can protect us.
Albert Einstein
Play is the highest from of research.
Albert Einstein
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
I am also convinced that one gains the purest joy from spirited things only when they are not tied in with earning one's livelihood.
Albert Einstein
Anyone can be a genius, if they pick just one specific subject and study it diligently just 15 minutes each day.
Albert Einstein
We have to do the best we are capable of. This is our sacred human responsibility.
Albert Einstein
Understanding of our fellow human beings...becomes fruitful only when it is sustained by sympathetic feelings in joy and sorrow.
Albert Einstein
So long as there are men, there will be wars.
Albert Einstein
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.
Albert Einstein
I believe that pipe smoking contributes to a somewhat calm and objective judgement in all human affairs.
Albert Einstein
Genius simply cannot be reduced to a set of rules for anyone to follow.
Albert Einstein
... it is a welcome symptom in an age which is commonly denounced as materialistic, that it makes heroes of men whose goals lie wholly in the intellectual and moral sphere.
Albert Einstein
You can't use an old map to explore a new world.
Albert Einstein
The world is not full of evil because of those who do wrong. It is full of evil because of those who do nothing.
Albert Einstein
The comprehensibility of the world seems to me a wonder or eternal secret. Here lies the sense of wonder which increases even more with the development of our knowledge.
Albert Einstein
The right to search for truth implies also a duty.
Albert Einstein
