More quotes by Albert Einstein
One feels the insignificance of the individual, and it makes one happy.
Albert Einstein
The traditional religions worry me. Their long history proves that they have not understood the meaning of the commandment: Thou shalt not kill. If we want to save this world from unimaginable destruction we should concentrate not on the faraway God , but on the heart of the individual.
Albert Einstein
The splitting of the atom has changed everything except for how we think.
Albert Einstein
The more I learn of physics, the more I am drawn to metaphysics.
Albert Einstein
One becomes a deeply religious nonbeliever.... It is clear from the original that it is definitely not I.
Albert Einstein
Common sense invents and constructs no less than its own field than science does in its domain. It is, however, in the nature of common sense not to be aware of this situation.
Albert Einstein
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.
Albert Einstein
It is our American habit if we find the foundations of our educational structure unsatisfactory to add another story or wing.
Albert Einstein
Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole strength and soul can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person.
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
A brave man, whose only fault was being a woman.
Albert Einstein
[Max Planck] was one of the finest people I have ever known... but he really didn't understand physics, [because] during the eclipse of 1919 he stayed up all night to see if it would confirm the bending of light by the gravitational field. If he had really understood [general relativity], he would have gone to bed the way I did
Albert Einstein
Men like Henry George [ the pioneer of land value taxation] are rare, unfortunately. One cannot imagine a more beautiful combination of intellectual keenness, artistic form, and fervent love of justice.
Albert Einstein
If most of us are ashamed of shabby clothes and shoddy furniture let us be more ashamed of shabby ideas and shoddy philosophies.
Albert Einstein
The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.
Albert Einstein
My sense of god is my sense of wonder about the universe.
Albert Einstein
Even the scholars in various lands have been acting as if their brains had been amputated.
Albert Einstein
The more success the quantum theory has, the sillier it looks
Albert Einstein
The more a man is imbued with the ordered regularity of all events the firmer becomes his conviction that there is no room left by the side of this ordered regularity for causes of a different nature. For him neither the rule of human nor the rule of divine will exist as an independent cause of natural events.
Albert Einstein
The value of achievement lies in the achieving.
Albert Einstein
