Quotes by Discovery

Gaining insight into one's underlying motives, it seems, is more like a belief conversion than a self-discovery process

Albert Bandura
belief self discovery

The realization that life is absurd and cannot be an end, but only a beginning. This is a truth nearly all great minds have taken as their starting point. It is not this discovery that is interesting, but theconsequences and rules of action drawn from it.

Albert Camus
taken discovery life

The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery. There comes a leap in consciousness, call it Intuition or what you will, the solution comes to you and you don't know how or why.

Albert Einstein
intuition discovery science

We owe a lot to the Indians, who taught us how to count, without which no worthwhile scientific discovery could have been made.

Albert Einstein
taught-us discovery science

It occurred to me by intuition, and music was the driving force behind that intuition. My discovery was the result of musical perception.

Albert Einstein

A theory can be proved by experiment; but no path leads from experiment to the birth of a theory.

The discovery of nuclear chain reactions need not bring about the destruction of mankind

Albert Einstein
strong organization discovery

Development of Western science is based on two great achievements: the invention of the formal logical system (in Euclidean geometry) by the Greek philosophers, and the discovery of the possibility to find out causal relationships by systematic experiment (during the Renaissance). In my opinion, one has not to be astonished that the Chinese sages have not made these steps. The astonishing thing is that these discoveries were made at all.

Albert Einstein
discovery two science

The only real valuable thing is intuition. The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery

Albert Einstein
intuition real discovery

The discovery of nuclear reactions need not bring about the destruction of mankind any more than the discovery of matches.

Albert Einstein
nuclear discovery needs

I am exclusively occupied with the problem of gravitation and hope with the help of a local mathematician friend [Marcel Grossman] to overcome all the difficulties. One thing is certain, however, that never in life have I been quite so tormented. A great respect for mathematics has been instilled within me, the subtler aspects of which, in my stupidity, I regarded until now as pure luxury.

Albert Einstein
learning discovery science

Certainly there are things worth believing. I believe in the brotherhood of man and the uniqueness of the individual. But if you ask me to prove what I believe, I can't. You know them to be true but you could spend a whole lifetime without being able to prove them. The mind can proceed only so far upon what it knows and can prove. There comes a point where the mind takes a leap—call it intuition or what you will—and comes out upon a higher plane of knowledge, but can never prove how it got there. All great discoveries have involved such a leap.

Albert Einstein
discovery men believe

Mathematics deals exclusively with the relations of concepts to each other without consideration of their relation to experience.

Albert Einstein

But nature did not deem it her business to make the discovery of... by Albert Einstein

But nature did not deem it her business to make the discovery of her laws easy for us.

Albert Einstein
law memorable discovery

The scientist finds his reward in what Henri Poincare calls the joy of comprehension, and not in the possibility of application to which any discovery may lead.

Albert Einstein
joy discovery science

The history of scientific and technical discovery teaches us that the human race is poor in independent and creative imagination.

Albert Einstein
independent race discovery

By observing natural scientific discoveries through a perception deepened by meditation, we can develop a new awareness of reality. This awareness could become the bedrock of a spirituality that is not based on the dogmas of a given religion, but on insights into a higher and deeper meaning. I am referring to the ability to recognize, to read, and to understand the firsthand revelations.

Albert Hofmann
meditation discovery reality

It is true that my discovery of LSD was a chance discovery, but it was the outcome of planned experiments and these experiments took place in the framework of systematic pharmaceutical, chemical research. It could better be described as serendipity.

Albert Hofmann
serendipity research discovery

It is true that my discovery of LSD was a chance discovery, but it was the outcome of planned experiments and these experiments took place in the framework of systematic pharmaceutical, chemical research. It could better be described as serendipity. That means that you look for something, you have a certain plan, and then you find something else, different, that may nevertheless be useful.

Albert Hofmann
serendipity discovery mean

Doubt, the essential preliminary of all improvement and discovery, must accompany the stages of man's onward progress. The faculty of doubting and questioning, without which those of comparison and judgment would be useless, is itself a divine prerogative of the reason.

Albert Pike
doubt discovery men
