Compound interest on debt was the banker's greatest invention, to capture, and enslave, a productive society.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

Children don’t heed the life ...

Children don’t heed the life experiences of their parents, and nations ignore history. Bad lessons always have to be learned anew.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

Long hair minimizes the need ...

Long hair minimizes the need for barbers; socks can be done without; one leather jacket solves the coat problem for many years; suspenders are superfluous.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

God doesn't; shoot crap with ...

God doesn't; shoot crap with the universe.Your innermost thoughts are beliefs that unfold as your universe.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

One thing I have learned in a...

One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike -- and yet it is the most precious thing we have.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

I fully agree with you about ...

I fully agree with you about the significance and educational value of as well as history and philosophy of science. So many people today - and even professional - seem to me like someone who has seen thousands of trees but has never seen a forest. A knowledge of the historic and philosophical background gives that kind of independence from prejudices of his generation from which most scientists are suffering. This independence created by philosophical insight is - in my opinion - the mark of distinction between a mere artisan or specialist and a real seeker after truth.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

The individual must not merel...

The individual must not merely wait and criticize, he must defend the cause the best he can. The fate of the world will be such as the world deserves.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

I am an adherent of the ideal...

I am an adherent of the ideal of democracy, although I well know the weaknesses of the democratic form of government. Social equality and economic protection of the individual appeared to me always as the important communal aims of the state. Although I am a typical loner in daily life, my consciousness of belonging to the invisible community of those who strive for truth, beauty, and justice has preserved me from feeling isolated.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

We know nothing at all. All o...

We know nothing at all. All our knowledge is but the knowledge of schoolchildren. The real nature of things we shall never know.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

People should be more like animals . . . they should be more intuitive; they should not be too conscious of what they do while they do it.

It has become appallingly clear that our technology has surpassed our humanity.
I hope that someday, our humanity might yet surpass our technology.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

Empathy is patiently and sincerely seeing the world through the other person's eyes. It is not learned in school; it is cultivated over a lifetime.

I assert that the cosmic religious experience is the strongest and the noblest driving force behind scientific research.

The step between genius and insanity is very short.

There is no place in this new kind of physics both for the field and matter, for the field is the only reality.

Experience alone can decide on truth.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

One should guard against preaching to young people success in the customary form as the main aim in life. The most important motive for work in school and in life is pleasure in work, pleasure in its result, and the knowledge of the value of the result to the community.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

The indifference, callousness...

The indifference, callousness and contempt that so many people exhibit toward animals is evil first because it results in great suffering in animals, and second because it results in an incalculably great impoverishment of the human spirit.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

A country cannot simultaneously prepare and prevent war.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

I find it difficult to believe that I belong to such an idiotic, rotten species - the species that actually boasts of its freedom of will, heroism on command, senseless violence, and all of the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism.
