I am a deeply religious nonbeliever — 

this is a somewhat new kind of religion.

Logic will get you from A to B. 

Imagination will take you everywhere.

I have no special talent. 

I am only passionately curious.

Look deep into nature, 

and then you will understand everything better.

To raise new questions, 

new possibilities, 

to regard old problems from a new angle, 

requires creative imagination 

and marks real advance in science.

It is the supreme art of the teacher 

to awaken joy 

in creative expression 

and knowledge.

It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.

The person who reads too much 

and uses his brain too little 

will fall into lazy habits of thinking.

Learn from yesterday, 

live for today, 

hope for tomorrow. 

The important thing is 

not to stop questioning.

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. 

So is a lot.

Nationalism is an infantile disease. 

It is the measles of mankind.

Look deep into nature, 

and then you will understand everything better.

The world as we have created it
is a process of our thinking. 

It cannot be changed
without changing our thinking.

A man should look for what is, 

and not for what he thinks should be.

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.

The important thing is not to stop questioning. 

Curiosity has its own reason for existing.

The true sign of intelligence
is not knowledge
but imagination.

All our science, 

measured against reality,

is primitive and child-like —

and yet it is the most precious thing we have.

The problems that exist in the world today 

cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them.

Information is not knowledge.
