Albert Einstein

I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Once you stop learning you start dying.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius – and a lot of courage – to move in the opposite direction.

A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.

Never memorize something that you can look up.

A new idea comes suddenly and in a rather intuitive way. But intuition is nothing but the outcome of earlier intellectual experience.

All of our exalted technological progress, civilization for that matter, is comparable to an axe in the hand of a pathological criminal.
