German born American physicist who developed the special and general theories of relativity and received Nobel Prize in physics.

Try not to become a man of success but rather to become a man of value.
~ Albert Einstein
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
~ Albert Einstein
Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.
~ Albert Einstein
The human mind is not capable of grasping the Universe. We are like a little child entering a huge library. The walls are covered to the ceilings with books in many different tongues. The child knows that someone must have written these books. It does not know who or how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. But the child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books - a mysterious order which it does not comprehend, but only dimly suspects.
~ Albert Einstein
Everything that can be counted does not necessarily count; everything that counts cannot necessarily be counted.
~ Albert Einstein
A person starts to live when he can live outside himself.
~ Albert Einstein
The eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility.
~ Albert Einstein
The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing.
~ Albert Einstein
If A equals success, then the formula is: A = X + Y + Z, X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut.
~ Albert Einstein
The most beautiful emotion we can experience is the mysterious. It is the power of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their most primitive forms -- this knowledge, this feeling, is at the center of true religiousness. In this sense, and in this sense only, I belong to the rank of devoutly religious men.
~ Albert Einstein
A human being is a part of the whole, called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest-a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty.
~ Albert Einstein
Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invaribly they are both disappointed.
~ Albert Einstein
Laws alone cannot secure freedom of expression; in order that every man present his views without penalty there must be a spirit of tolerance in the entire population.
~ Albert Einstein
The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.
~ Albert Einstein
Let every man be respected as an individual and no man idolized.
~ Albert Einstein
The difference between what the most and the least learned people know is inexpressibly trivial in relation to that which is unknown.
~ Albert Einstein
Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.
~ Albert Einstein
Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.
~ Albert Einstein
A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
~ Albert Einstein
You can't blame gravity for falling in love.
~ Albert Einstein

The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once.
~ Albert Einstein
Small is the number of people who see with their eyes and think with their minds.
~ Albert Einstein

Edwin Hubble
Edwin Hubble
An American astronomer and the founder of extragalactic astronomy. He was fascinated by science and mysterious new worlds from an early age. Hubble had also devised a classification system for the various galaxies he observed, sorting them by shape, content, distance and brightness. He noticed redshifts in the emission of light from the galaxies. He observed that they were moving away from each other at a rate constant to the distance between them. These observations contributed to formulating Hubble's Law in 1929, helping astronomers determine the age of the universe, and proving that the universe is expanding all the time. (1889-1953)
