Explore "The Ultimate Quotable Einstein" by Albert Einstein on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Over the past fifteen years, a number of people have sent me the sources of quotations that appeared in this section in the previous editions. I thank them for this help, and I have inserted the quotations into the text in the appropriate sections. I'm still looking for the sources of many of the following quotations.
Some sound genuine, some are apocryphal, and others are no doubt fakes, created by those who wanted to use Einstein's name to lend credibility to a cause or an idea. Hundreds can be found on the Internet, on calendars, and in little books containing undocumented quotations, but I include here only quotations sent to me by curious readers.
