Albert Einstein Quotes

These are some of my favourite sayings (in no particular order), all attributed to Albert Einstein.

"Things should be as simple as possible, but no simpler!"

"If we knew what we were doing it wouldn't be research, would it?"

"You can't solve a problem using the thinking that caused the problem in the first place."

"You can do as many experiments as you like to prove the theory of relativity right but it won't be right if just one experiment proves it wrong."

Albert also liked cycling

Other Quotes

Minds are like parachutes; they work best when open. Lord Thomas Dewar from Brainy Quotes

(and both minds and parachutes are often only used in emergencies!)

An "expert" is a drip under pressure!

Everything that grows dies! (Probably not considered by economists and politicians that push for economic/population growth!)

Nature works in circles/cycles - only humans try to work in a linear fashion (extract-consume-discard)!
