Results from Cole's Quotables:

All of us who are concerned for peace and triumph of reason and justice must be keenly aware how small an influence reason and honest good will exert upon events in the political field.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

In Einstein's theory of relativity the observer is a man who sets out in quest of truth armed with a measuring-rod. In quantum theory he sets out with a sieve.: Sir Arthur Eddington (1882 - 1944)
...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.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955), when asked to describe radio
I want to know God's thoughts; the rest are details.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
Theories should be as simple as possible, but not simpler.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
Too many of us look upon Americans as dollar chasers. This is a cruel libel, even if it is reiterated thoughtlessly by the Americans themselves.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
Einstein's space is no closer to reality than Van Gogh's sky. The glory of science is not in a truth more absolute than the truth of Bach or Tolstoy, but in the act of creation itself. The scientist's discoveries impose his own order on chaos, as the composer or painter imposes his; an order that always refers to limited aspects of reality, and is based on the observer's frame of reference, which differs from period to period as a Rembrant nude differs from a nude by Manet.: Arthur Koestler (1905 - 1983), The Act of Creation, London, 1970, p. 253
The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, and blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge.: Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)
