Albert Einstein says: 
181-    “What is the meaning of human life, or, for that matter, of the life of any creature? To know the answer to this question means to be religious. You ask: Does it make any sense, then, to pose this question? I answer: The man who regards his fellow creatures as meaningless is not merely unhappy but hardly fit for life.”

182-    “But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people--first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy.”

183-    “Bear in mind that the wonderful things you learn in your schools are the work of many generations. All this is put in your hands as your inheritance in order that you may receive it, honor it, add to it, and one day faithfully hand it on to your children.”

184-    “Success = 1 part work + 1 part play + 1 part keep your mouth shut”

185-    “Every day I remind myself that my inner and outer life are based on the labors of other men, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measure as I have received and am still receiving.”

186-    “When the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large scientific method in most cases fails. One need only think of the weather, in which case the prediction even for a few days ahead is impossible.” “Joy in looking and comprehending is nature's most beautiful gift.”

187-    “Do not grow old, no matter how long you live. Never cease to stand like curious children before the Great Mystery into which we were born.”

188-    “It is humankind's duty to respect all life, not only animals have feelings but even also trees and plants.”

189-    “Out of clutter, find simplicity. From discord, find harmony. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.”

190-    “Concerning matter, we have been all wrong. What we have called matter is energy, whose vibration has been so lowered as to be perceptible to the senses. There is no matter.”

191-    “I have not failed, I have just found 10,000 ways that don't work.”

192-    “We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life. All that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.”

193-    “Too many of us look upon Americans as dollar chasers. This is a cruel libel, even if it is reiterated thoughtlessly by the Americans themselves.”

194-    “People like you and me never grow old. We never cease to stand like curious children before the great mystery into which we were born.”

195-    “My sense of god is my sense of wonder about the universe.”

196-    “If I had known they were going to do this, I would have become a shoemaker.”

197-    “The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom the emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand wrapped in awe, is as good as dead —his eyes are closed. The insight into the mystery of life, coupled though it be with fear, has also given rise to religion. To know what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their most primitive forms—this knowledge, this feeling is at the center of true religiousness.”

198-    “Rejoice with your family in the beautiful land of life.”

199-    “I assert that the cosmic religious experience is the strongest and the noblest driving force behind scientific research.”

200-    “Joy in looking and comprehending is nature's most beautiful gift.”
