Albert Einstein

"Knowledge of what is does not open the door directly to what should be."

"No, this trick won't work... How on earth are you ever going to explain in terms of chemistry and physics so important a biological phenomenon as first love?"

"Science is the attempt to make the chaotic diversity of our sense-experience correspond to a logically uniform system of thought."

"The release of atomic energy has not created a new problem. It has merely made more urgent the necessity of solving an existing one."

"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."

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

"Out of clutter, find simplicity."

"Everything should be made as simple as possible ... But not simpler."

"This crippling of individuals I consider the worst evil of capitalism. Our whole educational system suffers from this evil. An exaggerated competitive attitude is inculcated into the student, who is trained to worship acquisitive success as a preparation for his future career."

"We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive."

"The devil has put a penalty on all things we enjoy in life. Either we suffer in health or we suffer in soul or we get fat."

"Our task must be to free ourselves... By widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and it's beauty."
