Quote

It would of course be a great step forward if we succeeded in combining the gravitational field and the electromagnetic field into a single structure. Only so could the era in theoretical physics inaugurated by Faraday and James Clerk Maxwell be brought to a satisfactory close.

Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death.
Albert Einstein
Image
The right to search for truth implies also a duty.
Albert Einstein
Image
A new idea comes suddenly and in a rather intuitive way, but intuition is nothing but the outcome of earlier intellectual experience.

Peace comes through understanding
Albert Einstein
Image
Each of us visits this Earth involuntarily, and without an invitation. For me, it is enough to wonder at the secrets.
Albert Einstein
Image
The goal of pacifism is possible only though a supranational organization. To stand unconditionally for this cause is the criterion of true pacifism.
Albert Einstein
Image
I take it to be true that pure thought can grasp the real, as the ancients had dreamed.
Albert Einstein
Image
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
Image
Discussion and argument are essential parts of science the greatest talent is the ability to strip a theory until the simple basic idea emerges with clarity.
Albert Einstein
Image
I have little patience with scientists who take a board of wood, look for its thinnest part, and drill a great number of holes where drilling is easy.
Albert Einstein
Image
If a man aspires towards a righteous life, his first act of abstinence is from injury to animals.
Albert Einstein
Image
Life is a preparation for the future and the best preparation for the future is to live as if there were none.

Success = 1 part work + 1 part play + 1 part keep your mouth shut
Albert Einstein

I advocate world government because I am convinced that there is no other possible way of eliminating the most terrible danger in which man has ever found himself. The objective of avoiding total destruction must have priority over any other objective.
