Some witty quotations from Albert Einstein

battery · 06-16-2008, 08:04 AM

I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.

If you are out to describe the truth, leave elegance to the tailor.

If my theory of relativity is proven successful, Germany will claim me as a German and France will declare that I am a citizen of the world. Should my theory prove untrue, France will say that I am a German and Germany will declare that I am a Jew.

The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.

To punish me for my contempt for authority, fate made me an authority myself.

Too many of us look upon Americans as dollar chasers. This is a cruel libel, even if it is reiterated thoughtlessly by the Americans themselves.

Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.

Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not one bit simpler.

You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war.

If A is success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut.

(When Einstein was asked to explain wireless communication) You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.

Albert Einstein could play Freebird on one guitar.
