3 quotes from Einstein

  • "A human being is part of the whole called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings, as something separate from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of consciousness."
  • "The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science."
  • "Imagination is more important than knowledge. Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."
