In music I do not look for logic. I am quite intuitive on the whole and know no theories. I never like a work if I cannot intuitively grasp its inner unity (architecture).
Albert Einstein
Image
The bitter and the sweet come from the outside, the hard from within, from one's own efforts.
Albert Einstein
Image
The essentials of being a person of my type lies precisely in what they think and how they think, not in what they do. Your thoughts shape you.

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Image
If I had foreseen Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I would have torn up my formula in 1905.
Albert Einstein
Image
Playfullness is the essential feature of productive thought.
Albert Einstein
Image
That which is impenetrable to us really exists. Behind the secrets of nature remains something subtle, intangible, and inexplicable. Veneration for this force beyond anything that we can comprehend is my religion.
Albert Einstein
Image
Most mistakes in philosophy and logic occur because the human mind is apt to take the symbol for the reality.
Albert Einstein
Image
Future medicine will be the medicine of frequencies.
Albert Einstein
Image
The ordinary adult never gives a thought to space-time problems ... I, on the contrary, developed so slowly that I did not begin to wonder about space and time until I was an adult. I then delved more deeply into the problem than any other adult or child would have done.
