Quotes About Einstein

Bohr was inconsistent, unclear, wilfully obscure and right. Einstein was consistent, clear, down-to-earth and wrong.

All my life I have dealt with objective matters; hence I lack both the natural aptitude and the experience to deal properly with people and to carry out official functions.

Upon hearing via Littlewood an exposition on the theory of relativity: To think I have spent my life on absolute muck.

But the beauty of Einstein's equations, for example, is just as real to anyone who's experienced it as the beauty of music. We've learned in the 20th century that the equations that work have inner harmony.

which is commonly understood to mean that everything is relative to something else excepting only the velocity of light.

more than once he saw the four equations expressing Einstein's generalized theory of gravitation: He never connected them with the little girl's chant: "Gik-lo, I-o, Rik-o, Gis-so.

Einstein, in the special theory of relativity, proved that different observers, in different states of motion, see different realities.

Einstein was searching for String Theory. It not only reconciles General Relativity to Quantum Mechanics, but it reconciles Science and the Bible as well.

The theory of relativity worked out by Mr. Einstein, which is in the domain of natural science, I believe can also be applied to the political field. Both democracy and human rights are relative concepts - and not absolute and general.

It was Einstein's dream to discover the grand design of the universe, a single theory that explains everything. However, physicists in Einstein's day hadn't made enough progress in understanding the forces of nature for that to be a realistic goal.

Since Einstein developed his theory of relativity, and Rutherford and Bohr revolutionised physics, our picture of the world has radically changed.

I learned Einstein's theory of relativity when I was still in school. I simply got interested.

One of the most exciting things about dark energy is that it seems to live at the very nexus of two of our most successful theories of physics: quantum mechanics, which explains the physics of the small, and Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, which explains the physics of the large, including gravity.

And it really began with Einstein. We attended his lectures. Now the theory of relativity remained - and still remains - only a theory. It has not been proven. But it suggested a completely different picture of the physical world.

I always found it satisfying that gravity was described by Einstein's geometric theory of general relativity.

They say Einstein died while he was still trying to figure out gravity. I think I'm going to die still trying to figure out some of the things about Blink.

Einstein said, "There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.

You're making this up" "I am not" "What woods are you talking about" "It's on the peninsula someplace. I didnt pay good attention on the way. I was strung out on an Einstein trip." "Einstein Trip" When you go all the way out, past the last star, and space loops back on you.

Einstein was searching for String Theory. It not only reconciles General Relativity to Quantum Mechanics, but it reconciles Science and the Bible as well.

I was drinking beer to kill time, the erotic and sensitive Mexican time which is so different from the clean-packaged, well-kept time of the Americanos. Time in Mexico is at times cruel and punishing, but it is never indifferent. It permeates everything, changes reality. Einstein would have loved Mexico because there time and space are one. I stare more often into empty space when I'm in Mexico.

There were two kinds of physicists in Berlin: on the one hand there was Einstein, and on the other all the rest.

if you have the brain of an Einstein, your thought process is still outclassed because thought cannot be bigger than life. Thought can only be logical, functioning between two polarities. If you want to know life in its immensity, you need something more than the intellect.

But in reality what Einstein had done was devise a theory that was decades ahead of its time. Experimental measurements had to catch up to his model of gravity, which had been fashioned from pure intuitive thought.
