"I think and think for months and years, ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right."
Motivation & Goals
"Now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion."
Time
"Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted."
Miscellaneous

"The finest emotion of which we are capable is the mystic emotion. Herein lies the germ of all art and all true science. Anyone to whom this feeling is alien, who is no longer capable of wonderment and lives in a state of fear is a dead man. To know that what is impenatrable for us really exists and manifests itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, whose gross forms alone are intelligible to our poor faculties - this knowledge, this feeling ... that is the core of the true religious sent iment. In this sense, and in this sense alone, I rank myself amoung profoundly religious men."
God

Money
"God does not play dice with the universe."
God

Wisdom
"It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge."
Education
"God is clever, but not dishonest."
God
"It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder."
War & Peace
"The laws of gravity cannot be held responsible for people falling in love."
Love
"A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death."
