More quotes by Albert Einstein
My scientific work is motivated by an irresistible longing to understand the secrets of nature and by no other feeling. My love for justice and striving to contribute towards the improvement of human conditions are quite independent from my scientific interests.
Albert Einstein
Man would indeeded be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death.
Albert Einstein
This is too difficult for a mathematician. It takes a philosopher. The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax.
Albert Einstein
Man is, at one and the same time, a solitary being and a social being.
Albert Einstein
Nothing happens until something moves. When something vibrates, the electrons of the entire universe resonate with it. Everything is connected.
Albert Einstein
Human beings can attain a worthy and harmonious life only if they are able to rid themselves, within the limits of human nature, of the striving for the wish fulfillment of material kinds. The goal is to raise the spiritual values of society.
Albert Einstein
If everybody lived as I do, surely the writing of romance novels would never have come into being.
Albert Einstein
Everything what's inspiring has been created by one who could work in freedom
Albert Einstein
You are right in speaking of the moral foundations of science, but you cannot turn around and speak of the scientific foundations of morality.
Albert Einstein
For science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgments of all kinds remain necessary. Religion, on the other hand, deals only with evaluations of human thought and action: it cannot justifiably speak of facts and relationships between facts.
Albert Einstein
Agreements about what is good or not, are usually not worth much. It is very much like art, is it not an art to lead a good life?
Albert Einstein
Fear or stupidity has always been the basis of most human actions.
Albert Einstein
I cannot accept any concept of God based on the fear of life or the fear of death, or blind faith. I cannot prove to you that there is no personal God, but if I were to speak of him I would be a liar.
Albert Einstein
The greatest tragedy of human existence is the illusion of separateness.
Albert Einstein
New frameworks are like climbing a mountain - the larger view encompasses rather than rejects the more restricted view.
Albert Einstein
But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people--first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy.
Albert Einstein
Every kind of peaceful cooperation among men is primarily based on mutual trust and only secondarily on institutions such as courts of justice and police.
Albert Einstein
Knowledge exists in two forms - lifeless, stored in books, and alive, in the consciousness of men. The second form of existence is after all the essential one the first, indispensable as it may be, occupies only an inferior position.
Albert Einstein
Though our conduct seems so very different from that of the higher animals, the primary instincts are much alike in them and in us.
Albert Einstein
If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.
Albert Einstein
