Albert Einstein Quote

Albert Einstein
Einstein, with his famous haircut
Hello everyone! Welcome to the new “Famous Quotes” blog. Here, you will find profound quotes from the intelligent, the influential, the powerful and the plain, run-of-the-mill famous. The first one is from perhaps the most talked about man in Science, Albert Einstein.


"Everything is determined, the beginning as well as the end, by forces over which we have no control. It is determined for insects as well as for the stars. Human beings, vegetables or cosmic dust, we all dance to a mysterious tune, intoned in the distance by an invisible piper." – Albert Einstein.

What an interesting statement. You can see that this quote could also allow for the theory of Creationism; “Everything is determined… by forces over which we have no control.” Being a scientist, I doubt the man was much of a God follower but he’s wise enough here to cover all grounds. I wonder who he believed this ‘invisible piper’ was. Maybe he thought there was some sort of God of Science up there… like some nerdy guy in high pants, behind a desk complete with scientific calculator and electric pencil sharpener, squinting at his work as he scribbles down formulas, into his Holy Bible of physics.

Being a scientist doesn't mean rejecting God. Einstein was a clever cookie - it's almost as if he solved problems like he was uncovering a riddle.

Hey Cibbuano,

I didn't say being a scientist is rejecting God, but i just dont think Einstein would have been much of a typical God follower, that's all. We all have our own ideas of God, and I think that a great Scientist like Einstein would have had views more relating to his beliefs in physics, chemistry etc, rather than the token christian church-goer.

Racheal.
