I never made one of my discoveries through the process of rational thinking

I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know God's thoughts, the rest are details.

I believe we are here to do good. It is the responsibility of every human being to aspire to do something worthwhile, to make the world a better place than the one we found.

In conclusion I wish to say that in working at the problem here dealt with I have had the loyal assistance of my friend and colleague M. Besso, and that I am indebted to him for several valuable suggestions.

The content of scientific theory itself offers no moral foundation for the personal conduct of life.

I don't need to know everything, I just need to know where to find it, when I need it

When the solution is simple, God is answering.
