"Chess holds its master in its own..." - Quote by Albert Einstein

“The monotony and solitude of a quiet life stimulates the creative mind.”

“In order to be an immaculate member of a flock of sheep, one must above all be a sheep oneself.”

“Without "ethical culture", there is no salvation for humanity.”

“Man is to himself the most wonderful object in nature; for he cannot conceive what the body is, still less what the mind is, and least of all how a body should be united to a mind. This isthe consummation of his difficulties, and yet it is his very being.”

“Reading musses up my mind.”

“I had not lived there a week before my feet wore a path from my door to the pond-side; and though it is five or six years since I trod it, it is still quite distinct. It is true, I fear that others may have fallen into it, and so helped to keep it open. The surface of the earth is soft and impressible by the feet of men; and so with the paths which the mind travels. How worn and dusty, then, must be the highways of the world, how deep the ruts of tradition and conformity!”

“In true democracy every man and woman is taught to think for himself or herself.”

“I don't think we should ever accept the idea that someone can come along and take away our safety and our freedom.”

“A man can suffocate on courtesy.”
