Albert Einstein

[Wayena]

Just some interesting quotes from one of life's greatest thinkers:


"I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the kind that we experience in ourselves. Neither can I nor would I want to conceive of an individual that survives his physical death; let feeble souls, from fear or absurd egoism, cherish such thoughts. I am satisfied with the mystery of the eternity of life and with the awareness and a glimpse of the marvelous structure of the existing world, together with the devoted striving to comprehend a portion, be it ever so tiny, of the Reason that manifests itself in nature."

"Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish."

*****

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."

*****

"Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves."

*****

"Women marry men hoping they will change. Men marry women hoping they will not. So each is inevitably disappointed."

*****

"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."

*****

"Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease only at death"

*****

"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new."

"I believe in Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a God who concerns himself with fates and actions of human beings"

Let us not forget: "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and exepecting different results."

[Namae Nai]

"Women marry men hoping they will change. Men marry women hoping they will not. So each is inevitably disappointed."

Einstein must have read some Oscar Wilde. 

"Men marry because they are tired, women because they are curious; both are disappointed."

Whatever happened to that genius idea they had for a British sitcom set in Liverpool about a character named Albert Epstein, who was a mix of Albert Einstein and Brian Epstein (famous Beatles manager).  Both geniuses in their respective fields, if you ask me...
