Albert Einstein

Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value.

Albert Einstein

Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.

Albert Einstein

A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.

Albert Einstein

The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has been before.

Albert Einstein

Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.

Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein

The gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.

Albert Einstein

Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.

Albert Einstein

When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity.

Albert Einstein

If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.

Albert Einstein

The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.

Albert Einstein

It was the experience of mystery - even if mixed with fear - that engendered religion.

Albert Einstein

Confusion of goals and perfection of means seems, in my opinion, to characterize our age.

Albert Einstein

Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.

Albert Einstein

Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty.

Albert Einstein

Mozart's music is so pure and beautiful that I see it as a reflection of the inner beauty of the universe.

Albert Einstein

The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.

Albert Einstein

It is strange to be known so universally and yet to be so lonely.

Albert Einstein

Perfection of means and confusion of ends seem to characterize our age.

Albert Einstein

Anger dwells only in the bosom of fools.

Albert Einstein

True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist.

Albert Einstein

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.

Albert Einstein

Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character.

Albert Einstein

I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind.

Albert Einstein

The hardest thing to understand in the world is the income tax.

Albert Einstein

If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts.

Albert Einstein

Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death.

Albert Einstein

The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education.

Albert Einstein

Education is what remains after one has forgotten what one has learned in school.

Albert Einstein

It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.

Albert Einstein

The environment is everything that isn't me.

Albert Einstein

Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish.

Albert Einstein

The only source of knowledge is experience.

Albert Einstein

That deep emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God.

Albert Einstein

God always takes the simplest way.

Albert Einstein

I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.

Albert Einstein

The distinction between the past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.

Albert Einstein

When the solution is simple, God is answering.

Albert Einstein

I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation and is but a reflection of human frailty.

Albert Einstein

God does not play dice.

Albert Einstein

I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil.

Albert Einstein

I shall never believe that God plays dice with the world.

Albert Einstein

We should take care not to make the intellect our god it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.

Albert Einstein

Morality is of the highest importance - but for us, not for God.

Albert Einstein

God may be subtle, but he isn't plain mean.

Albert Einstein

An empty stomach is not a good political adviser.

Albert Einstein

He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead his eyes are closed.

Albert Einstein

Nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced.

Albert Einstein
