Image
We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.
Albert Einstein
Image
To one bent on age, death will come as a release. I feel this quite strongly now that I have grown old myself and have come to regard death like an old debt, at long last to be discharged.
Albert Einstein
Image
Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocre minds. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.
Albert Einstein
Image
I must be willing to give up what I am in order to become what I will be.
Albert Einstein
Image
Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love. How on earth can you explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love? Put your hand on a stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with that special girl for an hour and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.
Albert Einstein
Image
The most important thing is to not stop questioning.
Albert Einstein
Image
I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
Albert Einstein
Image
Nothing that I can do or say will change the structure of the universe. But maybe, by raising my voice, I can help the greatest of all causes — good will among men and peace on earth.
Albert Einstein
Image
A man must learn to understand the motives of human beings, their illusions, and their sufferings.
Albert Einstein
Image
I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation and is but a reflection of human frailty.
Albert Einstein
Image
Condemnation without investigation is the height of ignorance
Albert Einstein
Image
Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.
Albert Einstein
Image
To be sure, it is not the fruits of scientific research that elevate a man and enrich his nature, but the urge to understand, the intellectual work, creative or receptive.
Albert Einstein
Image
If my theory of relativity is proven successful, Germany will claim me as a German and France will declare me a citizen of the world. Should my theory prove untrue, France will say that I am a German, and Germany will declare that I am a Jew.
Albert Einstein
Image
Scientists were rated as great heretics by the church, but they were truly religious men because of their faith in the orderliness of the universe.
Albert Einstein
Image
It is only to the individual that a soul is given. And the high destiny of the individual is to serve rather than to rule, or to impose himself in any other way.
Albert Einstein
Image
The trite objects of human efforts-possessions, superficial success, luxury-have always seemed contemptible to me.
Albert Einstein
Image
It is my belief that the problem of bringing peace to the world on a supranational basis will be solved only by employing Gandhi's method on a larger scale.

The Devil craps on the big pile

Study and, in general, the pursuit of truth and beauty is the sphere in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. Study and, in general, the pursuit of truth and beauty is the sphere in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.
