Mothers love them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers tolerate them, adults ignore them and Heaven protects them.

This right implies also a duty: one must not conceal any part of what on has recognized to be true. It is evident that any restriction on academic freedom acts in such a way as to hamper the dissemination of knowledge among the people and thereby impedes national judgment and action." Albert Einstein 4.1579 average rating Rate this Quote
"To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, which our dull facilities can comprehend only in the most primitive forms--this knowledge, this feeling, is at the center of true religiousness. In this sense, and in this sense only, I belong to the ranks of the devoutly religious men." Albert Einstein 3.5714 average rating Rate this Quote
