More quotes by Albert Einstein
The highest principles for our aspirations and judgments are given to us in the Jewish-Christian religious tradition.
Albert Einstein
There is nothing divine about morality it is a purely human affair. If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed. What the individual can do is to give a fine example, and to have the courage to uphold ethical values .. in a society of cynics.
Albert Einstein
It is also a natural thing for a serious young man that he should form for himself as precise an idea as possible of the goal of his desires.
Albert Einstein
The cult of individual personalities is always, in my view, unjustified. To be sure, nature distributes her gifts variously among her children. But there are plenty of the well-endowed ones too, thank God, and I am firmly convinced that most of them live quiet, unregarded lives.
Albert Einstein
The most fundamental question we can ever ask ourselves is whether or not the universe we live in is friendly or hostile.
Albert Einstein
Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them.
Albert Einstein
Try not to become a man of success, but a man of value. Look around at how people want to get more out of life than they put in. A man of value will give more than he receives. Be creative, but make sure that what you create is not a curse for mankind.
Albert Einstein
If you feed your mind as often as you feed your stomach, then you'll never have to worry about feeding your stomach or a roof over your head or clothes on your back.
Albert Einstein
Yes, we now have to divide up our time like that, between politics and our equations. But to me our equations are far more important, for politics are only a matter of present concern. A mathematical equation stands forever.
Albert Einstein
Without changing our pattern of thought, we will not be able to solve the problems we created with our current patterns of thought
Albert Einstein
I want to know God's thoughts.
Albert Einstein
The Nuremberg Trial of the German war criminals was tacitly based on the recognition of the principle: criminal actions cannot be excused if committed on government orders conscience supersedes the authority of the law of the state.
Albert Einstein
It is the same with people as it is with riding a bike. Only when moving can one comfortably maintain one's balance.
Albert Einstein
Man can find meaning in life only through devoting himself to society.
Albert Einstein
The most important human endeavor is the striving for morality in our actions. Our inner balance and even our very existence depend on it. Only morality in our actions can give beauty and dignity to life.
Albert Einstein
It is impossible to get out of a problem by using the same kind of thinking that it took to get into it.
Albert Einstein
I believe that pipe smoking contributes to a somewhat calm and objective judgement in all human affairs.
Albert Einstein
It is only to the individual that a soul is given.
Albert Einstein
Fear or stupidity has always been the basis of most human actions.
Albert Einstein
[O]nly if every individual strives for truth can humanity attain a happier future the atavisms in each of us that stand in the way of a friendlier destiny can only thus be rendered ineffective.
Albert Einstein
