More quotes by Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
That little word 'we' I mistrust and here's why: No man of another can say, 'He is I.' Behind all agreement lies something amiss All seeming accord cloaks a lurking abyss.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
I have become rather like King Midas, except that everything turns not into gold but into a circus.
Albert Einstein
I asked myself childish questions and proceeded to answer them.
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
The strength of the Constitution lies entirely in the determination of each citizen to defend it. Only if every single citizen feels duty bound to do his share in this defense are the constitutional rights secure.
Albert Einstein
I see in Nature a magnificent structure... that must fill a thinking person with a feeling of humility.
Albert Einstein
A brave man, whose only fault was being a woman.
Albert Einstein
The armament industry is indeed one of the greatest dangers that beset mankind. It is the hidden evil power.
Albert Einstein
The important thing is to never stop questioning. Never lose a holy curiosity.
Albert Einstein
While it is true that science, to the extent of its grasp of causative connections, may reach important conclusions as to the compatibility and incompatibility of goals and evaluations, the independent and fundamental definitions regarding goals and values remain beyond science's reach.
Albert Einstein
Those who believe that politics and religion do not mix, understand neither.
Albert Einstein
