Of course, understanding of our fellow-beings is important. But this understanding becomes fruitful only when it is sustained by sympathetic feeling in joy and in sorrow. The cultivation of this most important spring of moral action is that which is left of religion when it has been purified of the elements of superstition.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
There is far too great a disproportion between what one is and what others think one is, or at least what they say they think one is. But one has to take it all with good humor.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I lived in solitude in the country and noticed how the monotony of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
When I was young, all I wanted and expected from life was to sit quietly in some corner doing my work without the public paying attention to me.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
On how he sees himself: A person with no roots anywhere…a stranger everywhere.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy?
Quote by -Albert Einstein
All of one’s contemporaries and aging friends are living in a delicate balance, and one feels that one’s own consciousness is no longer as brightly lit as it once was. But then, twilight with its more subdued colors has its charms as well.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
Mankind invented the atomic bomb, but no mouse would ever construct a mousetrap.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
To see with one’s own eyes, to feel and judge without succumbing to the suggestive power of the fashion of the day, to be able to express what one has seen and felt in a trim sentence or even in a cunningly wrought word – is that not glorious? Is it not a proper subject for congratulation?
Quote by -Albert Einstein
On the mysterious: It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science. He who knows it not and can no longer wonder, no longer feel amazement, is as good as dead, a snuffed-out candle.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I believe in one thing, that only a life lived for others is a life worth living.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
Sometimes the only thought that sustains me and is my only refuge from despair is that I have always done everything I could within my small power, and that year in, year out, I have never permitted myself any amusements or diversions except those afforded by my studies.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
Death is a reality… Life ends definitely when the subject, by his actions, no longer affects his environment… He can no longer add an iota to the sum total of his experience
Quote by -Albert Einstein
Human beings can attain a worthy and harmonious life only if they are able to rid themselves, within the limits of human nature, of striving to fulfill wishes of the material kind.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I just read a wonderful paper by Lenard on the generation of cathode rays by ultraviolet light. Under the influence of this beautiful piece, I am filled with such happiness and joy that I absolutely must share some of it with you.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
The satisfaction of physical needs is indeed the indispensable precondition of a satisfactory existence, but in itself it is not enough. In order to be content, men must also have the possibility of developing their intellectual and artistic powers to whatever extent accords with their personal characteristics and abilities.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
What depressed me most is, of course, the misfortune of my poor parents who have not had a happy moment for so many years. What further hurts deeply is that as an adult man, I have to look on without being able to do anything.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
May they not forget to keep pure the great heritage that puts them ahead of the West: the artistic configuration of life, the simplicity and modesty of personal needs, and the purity and serenity of the Japanese soul.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
One of the strongest motives that lead men to art and science is escape from everyday life with its painful crudity and hopeless dreariness, from the fetters of one’s own ever-shifting desires. A finely tempered nature longs to escape from the personal life into the world of objective perception and thought.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I am happy at the thought that the worst worries are over for my parents.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I am satisfied with the mystery of the eternity of life and with the awareness and a glimpse of the marvelous structure of the existing world, together with the devoted striving to comprehend a portion, be it ever so tiny, of the Reason that manifest itself in nature.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
People like you and I, though mortal of course, like everyone else, do not grow old no matter how long we live. What I mean is that we never cease to stand like curious children before the great mystery into which we were born.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I believe that whatever we do or live for has its causality; it is good, however, that we cannot see through to it.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I am glad that you have given me the opportunity of expressing to you here my deep sense of gratitude as a man, as a good European, and as a Jew.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I am strongly drawn to a frugal life and am often oppressively aware that I am engrossing an undue amount of the labor of my fellow-men.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
This life is not such that we ought to complain when it comes to an end for us or for a loved one; rather, we may look back in satisfaction when it has been bravely and honorably withstood.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
Our death is not an end if we have lived on in our children and the younger generations. For they are us; our bodies are only wilted leaves on the tree of life.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
The old who have died live on in the young ones. Don’t you feel this now in your bereavement, when you look at your children?
Quote by -Albert Einstein
I have firmly resolved to bite the dust, when my time comes, with a minimum of medical assistance, and up to then I will sin to my wicked heart’s content.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Albert Einstein
