Albert Einstein

Information is not knowledge.

Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them.

Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.

It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer.

The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.

To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.

I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.

The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination.

Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life's coming attractions.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.

The devil has put a penalty on all things we enjoy in life. Either we suffer in health or we suffer in soul or we get fat.

A table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin what else does a man need to be happy?

You ask me if I keep a notebook to record my great ideas. I've only ever had one.

It gives me great pleasure indeed to see the stubbornness of an incorrigible nonconformist warmly acclaimed.

Most people say that it is the intellect which makes a great scientist. They are wrong: it is character.

Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.

Nothing is more destructive of respect for the government and the law of the land than passing laws which cannot be enforced.

He who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead his eyes are closed.
