"It is my inner conviction that the..." - Quote by Albert Einstein

“Genius is making complex ideas simple, not making simple ideas complex”

“The family that prays together...is brainwashing their children.”

“If you want to know the future, look at the past.”

“The first steps in Agriculture, Astronomy, Zoology, (those first steps which the farmer, the hunter, and the sailor take,) teach that nature's dice are always loaded; that in her heaps and rubbish are concealed sure and useful results.”

“The belief in an external world independent of the perceiving subject is the basis of all natural science. Since, however, sense perception only gives information of this external world or of "physical reality" indirectly, we can only grasp the latter by speculative means. It follows from this that our notions of physical reality can never be final. We must always be ready to change these notions - that is to say, the axiomatic basis of physics - in order to do justice to perceived facts in the most perfect way.”

“The Anti-Vivisector does not deny that physiologists must make experiments and even take chances with new methods. He says that they must not seek knowledge by criminal methods, just as they must not make money by criminal methods. He does not object to Galileo dropping cannon balls from the top of the leaning tower of Pisa; but he would object to shoving off two dogs or American tourists.”

“A thorn can only be extracted if you know where it is.”

“If a man knows more than others, he becomes lonely.”

“They who know the truth are not equal to those who love it, and they who love it are not equal to those who delight in it.”
