But in physics I soon learned ...

But in physics I soon learned to scent out the paths that led to the depths, and to disregard everything else, all the many things that clutter up the mind, and divert it from the essential. The hitch in this was, of course, the fact that one had to cram all this stuff into one's mind for the examination, whether one liked it or not.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

Where the world ceases to be t...

Where the world ceases to be the scene of our personal hopes and wishes, where we face it as free beings admiring, asking and observing, there we enter the realm of Art and Science.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

It is the theory which decides...

It is the theory which decides what we can observe

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

How can he possibly be humble?...

How can he possibly be humble? He hasn't done anything yet.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

Desire for approval and recogn...

Desire for approval and recognition is a healthy motive, but the desire to be acknowledged as better, stronger, or more intelligent than a fellow being or fellow scholar easily leads to an excessively egoistic psychological adjustment, which may become injurious for the individual and for the community.

I love to travel, but hate to arrive.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

Feeling and longing are the motive forces behind all human endeavor and human creations.

A model should be as simple as it can be but no simpler

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

The finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

A person experiences life as s...

A person experiences life as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of consciousness. Our task must be to free ourselves from this self-imposed prison, and through compassion, to find the reality of Oneness.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

If I would be a young man agai...

If I would be a young man again and had to decide how to make my living, I would not try to become a scientist or scholar or teacher. I would rather choose to be a plumber or a peddler in hope to find that modest degree of independence still available under present circumstances.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

New frameworks are like climbi...

New frameworks are like climbing a mountain - the larger view encompasses rather than rejects the more restricted view.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

It would be better if you begi...

It would be better if you begin to teach others only after you yourself have learned something.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

The foundation of morality sho...

The foundation of morality should not be made dependent on myth nor tied to any authority lest doubt about the myth or about the legitimacy of the authority imperil the foundation of sound judgment and action.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

I cannot conceive of a God who...

I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious in ourselves. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension, nor do I wish it otherwise; such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

I came- though the child of en...

I came- though the child of entirely irreligious (Jewish) parents - to a deep religiousness, which, however, reached an abrupt end at the age of twelve.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

Our schoolbooks glorify war and conceal its horrors. They indoctrinate children with hatred. I would teach peace rather than war, love rather than hate.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

Intelligence makes clear to us...

Intelligence makes clear to us the interrelationship of means and ends. But mere thinking cannot give us a sense of the ultimate and fundamental ends. To make clear these fundamental ends and valuations and to set them fast in the emotional life of the individual, seems to me precisely the most important function which religion has to form in the social life of man.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

I cannot conceive of a persona...

I cannot conceive of a personal God who would directly influence the actions of individuals, or would directly sit in judgment on creatures of his own creation.

Albert Einstein 2370 quotes

One must not attempt to justify them, but rather to sense their nature simply and clearly.
