About Author: Jewish, German-born physicist

Never made a mistake

A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.

God and mathematical difficulties

God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically.

Quoted in L. Infeld Quest, 1942

Einstein on God

It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it.

letter March 24, 1954

Conversation on Religion and Antisemitism

I do not believe that a man should be restrained in his daily actions by being afraid of punishment after death or that he should do things only because in this way he will be rewarded after he dies. This does not make sense. The proper guidance during the life of a man should be the weight that he puts upon ethics and the amount of consideration that he has for others.

The Private Albert Einstein by Peter A. Bucky (1992)

Cosmic religious experience

The cosmic religious experience is the strongest and the noblest driving force behind scientific research.

quoted in his obituary (April 19, 1955)
