Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
My life is a simple thing that would interest no one. It is a known fact that I was born, and that is all that is necessary.
Albert Einstein
If I had it [life] to do all over again, I'd have been a plumber.
Albert Einstein
That deep emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God.
Albert Einstein
The truth of a theory can never be proven, for one never knows if future experience will contradict its conclusions.
Albert Einstein
We dance for laughter, we dance for tears, we dance for madness, we dance for fears, we dance for hopes, we dance for screams, we are the dancers, we create the dreams.
Albert Einstein
Every age has its beautiful moments.
Albert Einstein
