Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.
The person who reads too much and uses his brain too little will fall into lazy habits of thinking.
Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.
The true definition of madness is repeating the same action, over and over, hoping for a different result.
Try not to be a man of success, but a man of value.
A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
Imagination is more important than knowledge
Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know - that man is here for the sake of other men.
Nothing truly valuable arises from ambition or from a mere sense of duty; it stems rather from love and devotion towards men and towards objective things.
Out of clutter, find simplicity. From discord, find harmony. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.
I regard class differences as contrary to justice and, in the last resort, based on force.
Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.
It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.
It was the experience of mystery, even if mixed with fear, that engendered religion.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted.
It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder.
The finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion. Herein lies the germ of all art and all true science. Anyone to whom this feeling is alien, who is no longer capable of wonderment and lives in a state of fear is a dead man. To know that what is impenatrable for us really exists and manifests itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, whose gross forms alone are intelligible to our poor faculties - this knowledge, this feeling ... that is the core of the true religious sent iment. In this sense, and in this sense alone, I rank myself amoung profoundly religious men.
It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.
