More quotes by Albert Einstein
O, Youth: Do you know that yours is not the first generation to yearn for a life full of beauty and freedom?
Albert Einstein
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.
Albert Einstein
It is humankind's duty to respect all life, not only animals have feelings but even also trees and plants.
Albert Einstein
Everyone sits in the prison of his own ideas he must burst it open, and that in his youth, and so try to test his ideas on reality.
Albert Einstein
Subtle is the Lord. Malicious, He is not.
Albert Einstein
To me the worst thing seems to be a school principally to work with methods of fear, force and artificial authority. Such treatment destroys the sound sentiments, the sincerity and the self-confidence of pupils and produces a subservient subject.
Albert Einstein
Experience alone can decide on truth.
Albert Einstein
I speak to everyone in the same way, whether he is the garbage man or the president of the university.
Albert Einstein
Play is the highest from of research.
Albert Einstein
The comprehensibility of the world seems to me a wonder or eternal secret. Here lies the sense of wonder which increases even more with the development of our knowledge.
Albert Einstein
I prefer to make up my own quotes and attribute them to very smart people, so that I can use them to win arguments
Albert Einstein
I have reached the conviction that the abolition of the death penalty is desirable. Reasons: 1) Irreparability in the event of an error of justice, 2) Detrimental moral influence of the execution procedure on those who, whether directly or indirectly, have to do with the procedure.
Albert Einstein
Mankind must give up war in the Atomic Era. What is at stake is the life or death of humanity.
Albert Einstein
We must learn the difficult lesson that the future of Mankind will only be tolerable when our course, in world affairs as in others, is based upon justice and law rather than the threat of naked power.
Albert Einstein
In every true searcher of Nature there is a kind of religious reverence.
Albert Einstein
Epistemology without contact with science becomes an empty scheme. Science without epistemology is-insofar as it is thinkable at all-primitive and muddled.
Albert Einstein
You are the only person I know who has the same attitude towards physics as I have: belief in the comprehension of reality through something basically simple and unified... It seems hard to sneak a look at God's cards. But that He plays dice and uses 'telepathic' methods... is something that I cannot believe for a single moment.
Albert Einstein
Things you can get access to, you should never memorize.
Albert Einstein
You teach me baseball and I'll teach you relativity...No we must not. You will learn about relativity faster than I learn baseball.
Albert Einstein
This is too difficult for a mathematician. It takes a philosopher. The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax.
Albert Einstein
