Albert Einstein

From the page: "He was the embodiment of pure intellect, the bumbling professor with the German accent, a comic cliché in a thousand films. Instantly recognizable, like Charlie Chaplin's Little Tramp, Albert Einstein's shaggy-haired visage was as familiar to ordinary people as to the matrons who fluttered about him in salons from Berlin to Hollywood. Yet he was unfathomably profound -- the genius among geniuses who discovered, merely by thinking about it, that the universe was not as it seemed."


"Sometimes one pays most for the things one gets for nothing."

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."

"Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding."

"Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts."
