More quotes by Albert Einstein
One may say the eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility.
Albert Einstein
I believe serious progress (in the abolition of war) can be achieved only when men become organized on an international scale and refuse, as a body, to enter military or war service.
Albert Einstein
The sole function of education...[is] to open the way to thinking and knowing, and the school, as the outstanding organ for the people's education, must serve that end exclusively.
Albert Einstein
The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.
Albert Einstein
Often in evolutionary processes a species must adapt to new conditions in order to survive. Today the atomic bomb has altered profoundly the nature of the world as we know it, and the human race consequently finds itself in a new habitat to which it must adapt its thinking.
Albert Einstein
Creating a new theory is not like destroying an old barn and erecting a skyscraper in its place. It is rather like climbing a mountain and gaining new and wider views.
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
The world is so full of possibilities that dogmatism is simply indecent.
Albert Einstein
The chicken did not cross the road. The road passed beneath the chicken.
Albert Einstein
I want to know what God thinks. The rest are details.
Albert Einstein
A country cannot simultaneously prepare and prevent war.
Albert Einstein
It's no accident that capitalism has brought with it progress, not merely in production but also in knowledge. Egoism and competition are, alas, stronger forces than public spirit and sense of duty.
Albert Einstein
On the left-hand side of the field equation we may add the fundamental tensor guv, multiplied by a universal constant, -λ, at present unknown, without destroying the general covariance.
Albert Einstein
If you are out to describe the truth, leave elegance to the tailor.
Albert Einstein
Whoever is devoid of the capacity to wonder, whoever remains unmoved, whoever cannot contemplate or know the deep shudder of the soul in enchantment, might just as well be dead for he has already closed his eyes upon life.
Albert Einstein
It is a very high goal which, with our weak powers, we can reach only very inadequately, but which gives a sure foundation to our aspirations and valuations.
Albert Einstein
The pursuit of knowledge is more valuable than its possession.
Albert Einstein
Understanding of our fellow human beings...becomes fruitful only when it is sustained by sympathetic feelings in joy and sorrow.
Albert Einstein
People should be more like animals . . . they should be more intuitive they should not be too conscious of what they do while they do it.
Albert Einstein
I wouldn't want to live if I did not have my work. In any case, it's good that I'm already old and personally don't have to count on a prolonged future.
Albert Einstein
