It is wrong to think that the task of physics is to find out how nature is. Physics concerns what we can say about nature. - Niels Henrik David Bohr I am acutely aware of the fact that the marriage between mathematics and physics, which was so enormously fruitful in past centuries, has recently ended in divorce. - Freeman John Dyson, Missed Opportrunities God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically. - Albert Einstein, in "Quest" by L. Infeld God does not play dice [with the universe]. [Ger., Gott wurfelt nicht.] - Albert Einstein, in a letter to Max Born I don't believe in mathematics. - Albert Einstein, quoted by Carl Seelig, in "Albert Einstein" I think that a particle must have a separate reality independent of the measurements. That is an electron has spin, location and so forth even when it is not being measured. I like to think that the moon is there even if I am not looking at it. - Albert Einstein It should be possible to explain the laws of physics to a barmaid. - Albert Einstein Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity. - Albert Einstein Relativity applies to physics, not ethics. - Albert Einstein Space by itself, and time by itself, are doomed to fade away into mere shadows, and only a kind union of the two will preserve an independent reality. - Albert Einstein When a man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. But let him sit on a hot stove for a minute-and it's longer than any hour. That's relativity. - Albert Einstein When forced to summarize the general theory of relativity in one sentence: Time and space and graviton have no separate existence from matter. - Albert Einstein When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity. - Albert Einstein, on relativity When you sit with a nice girl for two hours, you think it's only a minute. But when you sit on a hot stove for a minute, you think it's two hours. That's relativity. - Albert Einstein
