More quotes by Albert Einstein
Please explain the problem to me slowly, as I do not understand things quickly.
Albert Einstein
An empty stomach is not a good political adviser.
Albert Einstein
More the knowledge lesser the Ego, lesser the knowledge, more the Ego.
Albert Einstein
It is best, it seems to me, to separate one's inner striving from one's trade as far as possible. It is not good when one's daily break is tied to God's special blessing.
Albert Einstein
Strange is our situation here upon earth.
Albert Einstein
I do know that kind fate allowed me to find a couple of nice ideas after many years of feverish labor.
Albert Einstein
The scientist finds his reward in what Henri Poincare calls the joy of comprehension, and not in the possibility of application to which any discovery may lead.
Albert Einstein
The words of language, as they are written or spoken, do not seem to play any role in my mechanism of thought. The physical entities which seem to serve as elements in thought are certain signs and more or less clear images.
Albert Einstein
I cannot seriously believe in it [quantum theory] because the theory cannot be reconciled with the idea that physics should represent a reality in time and space, free from spooky actions at a distance [spukhafte Fernwirkungen].
Albert Einstein
If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts.
Albert Einstein
One does not make wars less likely by formulationg rules of warfare... war cannot be humanized. It can only be eliminated.
Albert Einstein
The place of the expert is on tap not on top.
Albert Einstein
In my opinion there is no other salvation for civilization and even for the human race than the creation of a world government with security on the basis of law. As long as there are sovereign states with their separate armaments and armament secrets, new world wars cannot be avoided.
Albert Einstein
The flag is a symbol of the fact that man is still a herd animal.
Albert Einstein
My interest in science was always essentially limited to the study of principles.... That I have published so little is due to this same circumstance, as the great need to grasp principles has caused me to spend most of my time on fruitless pursuits.
Albert Einstein
Political leaders or governments owe their position partly to force and partly to popular election. They cannot be regarded as representative of best elements, morally or intellectually, in their respective nations.
Albert Einstein
I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious. The important thing is to not stop questioning. Curiousity has its own reason for existing.
Albert Einstein
What really interests me is whether God had any choice in the creation of the World.
Albert Einstein
I'm no more intelligent than the next guy. I'm just more curious.
Albert Einstein
How can cosmic religious feeling be communicated from one person to another, if it can give rise to no definite notion of a God and no theology? In my view, it is the most important function of art and science to awaken this feeling and keep it alive in those who are receptive to it.
