More quotes by Albert Einstein
Applying the axioms of physical science to human life has something reprehensible to it.
Albert Einstein
The same thinking and actions that created our problems cannot be used to solve them.
Albert Einstein
Each makes this cosmos and its construction the pivot of his emotional life, in order to find in this way peace and security which he can not find in the narrow whirlpool of personal experience.
Albert Einstein
Desire for approval and recognition is a healthy motive, but the desire to be acknowledged as better, stronger, or more intelligent than a fellow being or fellow scholar easily leads to an excessively egoistic psychological adjustment, which may become injurious for the individual and for the community.
Albert Einstein
The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.
Albert Einstein
Don't let the measurable drive out the relevant
Albert Einstein
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Albert Einstein
A person experiences life as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of consciousness. Our task must be to free ourselves from this self-imposed prison, and through compassion, to find the reality of Oneness.
Albert Einstein
People will not disarm step by step they will disarm at one blow or not at all.
Albert Einstein
Most people go on living their everyday life: half-frightened, half indifferent, they behold the ghostly tragic-comedy that is being performed on the international stage before the eyes and ears of the world.
Albert Einstein
Smoke like a chimney, work like a horse, eat without thinking, go for a walk only in really pleasant company.
Albert Einstein
The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. It is the source of all true art and science. He who knows it not and can no longer wonder, no longer feel amazement, is as good as dead, a snuffed-out candle.
Albert Einstein
God has given me a mule-like stubbornness to stick with a difficult problem and the intuitive powers to conceptualize complex hypothetical situations in my mind.
Albert Einstein
In living through this great epoch, it is difficult to reconcile oneself to the fact that one belongs to that mad, degenerate species that boasts of its free will. How I wish that somewhere there existed an island for those who are wise and of good will. In such a place even I should be an ardent patriot!
Albert Einstein
As the area of light expands, so does the perimeter of darkness.
Albert Einstein
If you took half of something and continued to take half of that half and so on, you would never reach an end.
Albert Einstein
When you trip over love, it is easy to get up. But when you fall in love, it is impossible to stand again.
Albert Einstein
God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically.
Albert Einstein
The economic anarchy of capitalist society as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evil.
Albert Einstein
It is open to every man to choose the direction of his striving and also every man may draw comfort from Lessing's fine saying, that the search for truth is more precious than its possession.
Albert Einstein
