Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent.
It takes a touch of genius and a lot of courage, to move in the opposite direction.

spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind.
~ Albert Einstein
The whole of science is nothing more than a refinement of everyday thinking.

Yes, we have to divide up our time like that, between our politics and our equations.
But to me our equations are far more important, for politics are only a matter of present concern. A mathematical equation stands forever.

Now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing.
People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.
~ Albert Einstein
A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties;

I have never looked upon ease and happiness as ends in themselves -- such an ethical basis I call more proper for a herd of swine.

Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand
it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence.
~ Albert Einstein
Everything is determined, the beginning as
well as the end, by forces over which we have no control. It is
determined for the insect, as well as for the star. Human beings,
vegetables, or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned
in the distance by an invisible pipe
~ Albert Einstein
Professor of Astronomy and Space Sciences and Director of the Laboratory for Planetary Studies at Cornell University.
