Albert Einstein for War, Nuclear Weapons, Music, America, and Religion

In addition to his genius in science, Albert Einstein is also known as a man who has left many words on various issues, including war, nuclear weapons, politics, music, and religion.

Here are some of these:

War

“Co-operation must be the central fact in all our considerations of international affairs; otherwise we face a certain catastrophe. Past thinking and methods could not prevent world wars. Thinking of the future should prevent war”.

Civil Rights

Your fathers dragged these niggers out of their homes by force; and in the search of white man for wealth and easy life, they were oppressed and exploited without mercy, being degraded in slavery. The modern prejudice against blacks is the result of the desire to maintain this undesirable situation”.

Nuclear Weapons

We now live in an international anarchy in which a Third World War with a nuclear weapon stands in front of our door. We have to make people aware, so they understand what it means, only a few of them will survive the next fight”.

America

“America is a democracy and there is no Hitler, but I fear for its future; there are difficult times ahead for the American people, problems will come from inside and from outside”.

Education

I don't keep much information in mind, since it's available in books... The value of a college education is, not in learning many facts, but in training the mind to think”.

Politics

“Yes, now we have to share time, between politics and equations. But for me our equations are much more important, because politics is just a matter of the present. A mathematical equation is forever”.

Music

If I wasn't a physicist, maybe I'd be a musician. I often think about music. I live my dreams in music”

Religion

"In essence, my religion consists of an admiration of this supreme incompatible spirit, which reveals itself in the smallest detail that we are able to perceive, with our delicate and helpless minds”.
