But to me our equations are far more important, for politics are only a matter of present concern. A mathematical equation stands forever. (Albert Einstein)
Black holes are where God divided by zero. View quote
Albert Einstein
It is not that I'm so smart. But I stay with the questions much longer. View quote
Albert Einstein
The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science. View quote
Albert Einstein
Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research. View quote
Albert Einstein
I believe in intuition and inspiration. View quote
Albert Einstein
My religion consists of an humble admiration for the vast power which manifests itself in that small part of the universe which our poor, weak minds can grasp! View quote
Albert Einstein
I believe that we have to content ourselves with our imperfect knowledge and understanding and treat values and moral obligations as a purely human problem-the most important of all human problems. View quote
Albert Einstein
There are pessimists who hold that such a state of affairs is necessarily inherent in human nature; it is those who propound such views that are the enemies of true religion, for they imply thereby that religious teachings are Utopian ideals and unsuited to afford guidance in human affairs. View quote
Albert Einstein
I am often worried at the thought that my life is based to such a large extent on the work of my fellow human beings and I am aware of my great indebtedness to them. View quote
Albert Einstein
Our experience hitherto justifies us in trusting that nature is the realization of the simplest that is mathematically conceivable. (Albert Einstein)
I agree with your remark about loving your enemy as far as actions are concerned. But for me the cognitive basis is the trust in an unrestricted causality. View quote
Albert Einstein
This feeling mercifully mitigates the sense of responsibility which so easily becomes paralyzing, and it prevents us from taking ourselves and other people too seriously; it conduces to a view of life in which humor, above all, has its due place. View quote
Albert Einstein
How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he sometimes thinks he senses it. View quote
Albert Einstein
I regard class differences as contrary to justice and, in the last resort, based on force. I also consider that plain living is good for everybody, physically and mentally. View quote
Albert Einstein
How does it happen that a properly endowed natural scientist comes to concern himself with epistemology? View quote
Albert Einstein
Religion is concerned with man's attitude toward nature at large, with the establishing of ideals for the individual and communal life, and with mutual human relationship. View quote
Albert Einstein
Body and soul are not two different things, but only two different ways of perceiving the same thing. View quote
Albert Einstein
Nobody, certainly, will deny that the idea of the existence of an omnipotent, just, and omnibeneficent personal God is able to accord man solace, help, and guidance; also, by virtue of its simplicity it is accessible to the most undeveloped mind. But, on the other hand, there are decisive weaknesses attached to this idea in itself, which have been painfully felt since the beginning of history. View quote
Albert Einstein
The intellect has a sharp eye for methods and tools, but is blind to ends and values. View quote
Albert Einstein
We followers of Spinoza see our God in the wonderful order and lawfulness of all that exists and in its soul ("Beseeltheit") as it reveals itself in man and animal. (Albert Einstein)
Standardization robs life of its spice. View quote
Albert Einstein
The fact that it is comprehensible is a miracle. View quote
Albert Einstein
Hail to the man who went through life always helping others, knowing no fear, and to whom aggressiveness and resentment are alien. View quote
Albert Einstein
The main source of the present-day conflicts between the spheres of religion and of science lies in this concept of a personal God. View quote
Albert Einstein
