Albert Einstein
Now to the term 'relativity theory.' I admit that it is unfortunate, and has given occasion to philosophical misunderstandings.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
If you want your children to be smart, tell them stories. If you want them to be really smart, tell them more stories. If you want your children to be brilliant, tell them even more stories.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
What I see in Nature is a grand design that we can understand only imperfectly, one with which a responsible person must look at with humility.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
In their struggle for the ethical good, teachers of religion must have the stature to give up the doctrine of a personal god.
Albert Einstein
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
Many of the things you can count, don't count. Many of the things you can't count, really count.
Albert Einstein
Betterment of conditions the world over is not essentially dependent on scientific knowledge but on the fulfillment of human traditions and ideals.
Albert Einstein
But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people--first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy.
Albert Einstein
I never made one of my discoveries through the process of rational thinking
Albert Einstein
Failing isn't bad when you learn what not to do.
