More quotes by Albert Einstein
There is, however, a somber point in the social outlook of Americans. Their sense of equality and human dignity is mainly limited to people of white skin.... The more I feel like an American, the more the situation pains me.
Albert Einstein
[Mystery] is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science.
Albert Einstein
when u knw ur limits u go byond them
Albert Einstein
Conviction is a good motive, but a bad judge.
Albert Einstein
Time is not at all what it seems. It does not flow in only one direction, and the future exists simultaneously with the past.
Albert Einstein
The only real valuable thing is intuition. The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery
Albert Einstein
Information is not knowledge.
Albert Einstein
Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.
Albert Einstein
The state exists for man, not man for the state. The same may be said of science. These are old phrases, coined by people who saw in human individuality the highest human value. I would hesitate to repeat them, were it not for the ever recurring danger that they may be forgotten, especially in these days of organization and stereotypes.
Albert Einstein
It is not a lack of real affection that scares me away again and again from marriage. Is it a fear of the comfortable life, of nice furniture, of dishonor that I burden myself with, or even the fear of becoming a contented bourgeois.
Albert Einstein
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
What can the schools do to defend democracy? Should they preach a specific political doctrine? I believe they should not. If they are able to teach young people to have a critical mind and a socially oriented attitude, they will have done all that is necessary.
Albert Einstein
Bear in mind that the wonderful things you learn in your schools are the work of many generations. All this is put in your hands as your inheritance in order that you may receive it, honor it, add to it, and one day faithfully hand it on to your children.
Albert Einstein
There's a genius in all of us.
Albert Einstein
The war is won, but the peace is not.
Albert Einstein
Enjoying the joys of others and suffering with them-these are the best guides for man.
Albert Einstein
It is an outcome of faith that nature-as she is perceptible to our five senses-takes the character of such a well formulated puzzle.
Albert Einstein
The creative principle [of science] resides in mathematics.
Albert Einstein
I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy, accompanied by an educational system which would be oriented toward social goals.
Albert Einstein
Imagination is more valuable than information.
Albert Einstein
