Albert Einstein，1879年3月14日—1955年4月18日，著名理論物理學家。
Ø 一個人的價值，應該看他貢獻什麼，而不應當看他取得什麼。 出自:《教育論》
Ø 「沒有宗教的科學是瘸子，沒有科學的宗教是瞎子。」
Ø 只要我還能有所選擇，我就只想生活在這樣的國家裡，這個國家中所實行的是：公民、自由、寬容，以及在法律面前公民一律平等。公民自由意味著人們有用言語和文字表示其政治信念的自由；寬容意味著尊重別人可能有的任何信念。這些條件目前在德國都不存在。那些對國際諒解事業有特別重大貢獻的人，在那裡正受到迫害，其中就有一些是一流的藝術家。
Ø 一個物體的質量就是其所含能量的度量單位。 原文:The mass of a body is a measure of its energy content.
Ø 我在量子理論上花的腦筋比相對論還多。 原文:On quantum theory I use up more brain grease than on relativity.
Ø 物理學家們說我是數學家，數學家們又把我歸為物理工作者。我是一個完全孤立的人，雖然所有人都認識我，卻沒有多少人真正瞭解我。原文:The physicists say that I am a mathematician, and the mathematicians say that I am a physicist. I am a completely isolated man and though everybody knows me, there are very few people who really know me.
Ø 那我祇能對親愛的主表示遺憾。相對論是正確的。 原文:Then I would have felt sorry for the dear Lord. The theory is correct. - When asked by a student what he would have done if Sir Arthur Eddington's famous 1919 gravitational lensing experiment, which confirmed relativity, had instead disproved it.
Ø 任何一個有智力的笨蛋都可以把事情搞得更大，更複雜，也更激烈。往相反的方向前進則需要天份，以及很大的勇氣。原文: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.
Ø 一個人從未犯錯是因為他不曾嘗試新鮮事物。 原文:Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.
Ø 當我們的知識之圓擴大之時，我們所面臨的未知的圓周也一樣。原文:As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it.
Ø 在上帝面前我們都一樣聰明——也都一樣愚蠢。 原文:Before God we are all equally wise— and equally foolish.
Ø 常識就是人到十八歲為止所累積的各種偏見。 原文:Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen.
Ø 不要擔心你在數學上遇到的困難；我敢保證我遇到的困難比你還大得多。原文:Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater.
Ø 教育就是當一個人把在學校所學全部忘光之後剩下的東西。 原文:Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school.
Ø 方程式對我更重要，因為政治只看眼前，而方程式是永恆的。 原文:Equations are more important to me, because politics is for the present, but an equation is something for eternity.
Ø 上帝不為我們那些數學難題而費心。祂信手拈來，將萬物合一。原文:God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically.
Ø 萬有引力可無法對墜入愛河的人負責。 原文:Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love.
Ø 我不知道第三次世界大戰會用哪些武器，但第四次世界大戰中人們肯定用的是木棍和石塊。原文:I do not know with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.
Ø 我並不假裝理解宇宙——它比我大多了。 原文:I don't pretend to understand the universe— it's much bigger than I am.
Ø 我喜歡旅行，但不喜歡到達目的地。 原文:I love to travel, but hate to arrive.
Ø 我從不去想未來。因為它來得已經夠快的了。 原文:I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
Ø 我認為祇有大膽的臆測，而不是事實的積累，才能引領我們往前邁進。原文:I think that only daring speculation can lead us further and not accumulation of facts.
Ø 我想知道上帝的構思；其他的都祇是細節。 原文:I want to know God's thoughts; the rest are details.
Ø 如果A代表一個人的成功，那麼A等於x加y加z。勤奮工作是x；y是玩耍，而z是把嘴閉上。 原文:If A is a success in life, then A= X+ Y+ Z. Work is x; y is play; and z is keeping your mouth shut.
Ø 如果我再次成為一個展望人生的年輕人，我不會選擇成為一個科學家、學者或是教師。我寧可去做一個水管工或是小販，盼望著在當前的環境裡，可以找到些許獨立自主的空間。原文:If I would be a young man again and had to decide how to make my living, I would not try to become a scientist or scholar or teacher. I would rather choose to be a plumber or a peddler in the hope to find that modest degree of independence still available under present circumstances.
Ø 如果我的相對論被證明是正確的，德國人就會說我是德國人，法國佬會說我是一個世界公民。如果我的相對論被否定了，法國佬就會罵我德國鬼子而德國人就會把我歸為猶太人。原文:If my theory of relativity is proven correct, Germany will claim me as a German and France will say I am a man of the world. If it's proven wrong, France will say I am a German and
Germany
will say I am a Jew.
Ø 如果我們知道我們在做什麼，那麼這就不叫科學研究了；不是嗎？原文:If we knew what we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
Ø 創新不是由邏輯思維帶來的，儘管最後的產物有賴於一個符合邏輯的結構。原文:Innovation is not the product of logical thought, even though the final product is tied to a logical structure.
Ø 精神錯亂：一遍又一遍地重覆作同一件事而期待會有不同的結果。原文:Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Ø 有一個現象的明顯程度已經讓我毛骨悚然，這便是我們的人性已經遠遠落後我們的科學技術了。原文:It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.
Ø 要打破人的偏見比崩解一個原子還難。 原文:It is harder to crack a prejudice than an atom.
Ø 法律本身並不能保證言論自由；要做到這一點必需要所有的人都有著包容的心。原文:Laws alone can not secure freedom of expression; in order that every man present his views without penalty there must be spirit of tolerance in the entire population.
Ø 人生就像騎單車。想保持平衡就得往前走。 原文:Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.
Ø 祇有利他的生活才是值得過的生活。 原文:Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.
Ø 武力不能維持和平。祇有互相理解才可以。 原文:Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.
Ø 把你的手放在滾熱的爐子上一分鐘，感覺起來像一小時。坐在一個漂亮姑娘身邊整整一小時，感覺起來像一分鐘。這就是相對論。原文
