Quotes About Einstein

Einstein explained his theory to me every day, and on my arrival I was fully convinced that he understood it.

No, I don't understand my husband's theory of relativity, but I know my husband and I know he can be trusted.

It would seem that men always need some idiotic fiction in the name of which they can hate one another. Once it was religion. Now it is the State.

Si Dios no juega a los dados con el Universo, como dice Einstein, ¿por qué habría de dejar a sus más milagrosos corpúsculos abandonados a un inmisericorde azar?

The E in SURGE is for Einstein.

Einstein said that he wanted "to know how God created the world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thought, the rest are details."3

Well, Dr. Einstein, what's for supper tonight? Alphabet soup?

Away and away the aeroplane shot, till it was nothing but a bright spark; an aspiration; a concentration; a symbol (so it seemed to Mr. Bentley, vigorously rolling his strip of turf at Greenwich) of man's soul; of his determination, thought Mr. Bentley, sweeping round the cedar tree, to get outside his body, beyond his house, by means of thought, Einstein, speculation, mathematics, the Mendelian theory––away the aeroplane shot.

Einstein said, So far as the theories of mathematics are about reality, they are not certain; so far as they are certain, they are not about reality.

Einstein was wrong! I'M the speed of light CRACKING through shivery rainbows and GOD the sky whirls and withers like a melting RAINBOW!

People ain't mathematics, Jim. If they was, you and Einstein would of fought it out a long time ago, to see who rules the world.

M-theory is the unified theory Einstein was hoping to find.

I would say in one sentence my goal is to at least be part of the journey to find the unified theory that Einstein himself was really the first to look for.

I would say in one sentence my goal is to at least be part of the journey to find the unified theory that Einstein himself was really the first to look for. He didn't find it, but we think we're hot on the trail.

If Mr. Einstein doesn't like the natural laws of the universe, let him go back to where he came from.

For years, my early work with Roger Penrose seemed to be a disaster for science. It showed that the universe must have begun with a singularity, if Einstein's general theory of relativity is correct. That appeared to indicate that science could not predict how the universe would begin.

What really made me think about space and begin to think about ways to use it was Einstein's statement that there are no fixed points in space. Everything in the universe is moving all the time.

In the Einstein way, I can't believe in a universe that doesn't have some sort of prime mover, identical with all of created nature. I have a whole lot of a harder time with supposing the fine print of the Torah was a direct revelation.

Heisenberg, Max Plank and Einstein, they all agreed that science could not solve the mystery of the universe.

I had a difficult time getting my arms around Einstein's work, even when I was a physics major at one of the top universities in India.

Einstein believed that science was directed toward discovering God's thoughts. Quantum physics itself is a kind of spirituality insofar as it is always looking farther into the unknown to see what is beyond the known. It is a search for ultimate reality.

A new idea comes suddenly and in a rather intuitive way," Einstein once said, "but intuition is nothing but the outcome of earlier intellectual experience.
