Albert Einstein Wiki Biography

  • Albert Einstein was born on 14 March 1879, of Jewish origin, in Ulm, Wurttemberg, Germany. 
  • Albert is one of the most famous scientists in history, particularly revered for his work on the equivalence of mass-energy equivalence formula E=mc2. 
  • He also established the relativity principle that was responsible for many breakthroughs in physics. 
  • Apart from these, Albert was one of the key reasons for the launch of the Manhattan Project as a response to the production of new and strong bombs by the World War 2 Allies. 
  • In his life, his efforts helped increase his net worth. 
  • As of early 2016, sources suggest that his net worth was largely raised at $1 million by working on his passion for science through the success he had. 
  • Albert was a recipient of the Nobel Prize and has written over 300 papers on his scientific work, not counting 150 papers on his non-scientific work. 
  • His continuing pursuit of expertise guaranteed his wealth. 
  • Albert and the family moved to Milan and then Pavia, Italy, after his father’s business struggled to make a profit. 
  • Einstein would travel around the world in the years that followed, visiting the US, then London, Singapore, Japan, and Palestine. 
  • Reading about most of the locations he visited and how the individuals in each nation were. 
  • In 1930, he returned to the US to be greeted in the country by crowds, events, and high-profile names. 
  • This also resulted in Charlie Chaplin, plus Upton Sinclair, and a few other politicians and celebrities being befriended by Einstein. 
  • By 1933, while visiting the United States again, he realized that, with the rise of Adolf Hitler to power, he could not return to Germany. 
  • He then renounced his German citizenship, which he re-adopted in 1914, and became a refugee in the United States, ultimately becoming a resident of the United States in 1940. 
  • He continued his work, and despite disapproving of the advancement of nuclear weapons, he opposed all aggression and became frank about his pacifism. 
  • Einstein was married to Mileva Maric in his personal life and they had a daughter before their marriage, although the mystery is shrouded in details about what happened to their child. 
  • Then, in the same year, he married Elsa Lowenthal and remained married to her until her death in 1936. 
  • He concluded it was no longer necessary to extend his life artificially and he declined surgery.

Albert Einstein Quotes

  • If a cluttered desk is a sign of a cluttered mind, of what, then, is an empty desk a sign?
  • [in 1932] There is not the slightest indication that nuclear energy will ever be obtainable. It would mean that the atom would have to be shattered at will.
  • Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted, counts.
  • Before God, we are equally wise–equally foolish.
  • The eternal mystery of the universe is its comprehensibility.
  • If A is a success in life, then A equals x plus y plus z. Work is x; y is playing, and z is keeping your mouth shut.
  • The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax.
  • Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school.
  • An empty stomach is not a good political adviser.
  • If the facts don’t fit the theory, change the facts.
  • There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.
  • I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.
  • Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.
  • Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age 18.
  • Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
  • The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.
  • Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.
  • The important thing is not to stop questioning.
  • I am a deeply religious nonbeliever. This is a somewhat new kind of religion.

  • [Referring to Mohandas K. Gandhi after Gandhi’s assassination] Generations to come, it may be, will scarce believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth!
  • [Upon learning of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima] If I had only known, I would have been a watchmaker!
  • Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.
  • A photograph never grows old. You and I change, people change all through the months and years but a photograph always remains the same. How nice to look at a photograph of mother or father taken many years ago. You see them as you remember them. But as people live on, they change completely. That is why I think a photograph can be kind.
  • in “Life” magazine, 9 January 1950] The grand aim of all science is to cover the greatest number of empirical facts by logical deduction from the smallest number of hypotheses or axioms.
  • by Ted Morgan in the book “FDR”, Simon & Schuster, 1985] I made one great mistake in my life–when I signed the letter to [President Franklin D. Roosevelt] recommending that atom bombs be made . . . but there was some justification: the danger that the Germans would make them.
  • When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come close to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.
  • I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right.
  • I assert that the cosmic religious experience is the strongest and the noblest driving force behind scientific research.
  • Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the former.
  • As a young man, my fondest dream was to become a geographer. However while working in the customs office I thought deeply about the matter and concluded that it was far too difficult a subject. With some reluctance, I then turned to physics as a substitute.
  • There is a race between mankind and the universe. Mankind is trying to build bigger, better, faster, and more foolproof machines. The universe is trying to build bigger, better, and faster fools. So far the universe is winning.
  • The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.
  • Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world.
  • The wireless telegraph is not difficult to understand. The ordinary telegraph is like a very long cat. You pull the tail in New York, and it meows in Los Angeles. The wireless is the same, only without the cat.
  • If we knew what it was we were doing, it would not be called research, would it?
  • The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.
  • I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.
  • Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
  • I do not much believe in education. Each man ought to be his own model, however frightful that may be.
  • The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.
  • [giving the most practical, understandable explanation of the Theory of Relativity; how time can expand or contract] You spend 30 minutes with a beautiful girl, it seems like a moment. You spend a moment sitting on a hot stove, it seems like 30 minutes.

Albert Einstein Important Facts

  • Producer Julian Blaustein cast Sam Jaffee as Professor Barnhardt in “The Day the Earth Stood Still” (1951) because of his resemblance to Albert Einstein who, at that time, was the most recognized scientist in the world.
