More From Albert Einstein

We got to face some facts. that the masses are poor, that the masses belong to what you call the lower class, and when i talk about the masses, i'm talking about the white masses, i'm talking about the black masses, and the brown masses, and the yellow masses, too. we've got to face the fact that some people say you fight fire best with fire, but we say you put fire out best with water. we say you don't fight racism with racism. we're gonna fight racism with solidarity. we say you don't fight capitalism with no black capitalism; you fight capitalism with socialism.

We proclaim human intelligence to be morally valuable per se because we are human. if we were birds, we would proclaim the ability to fly as morally valuable per se. if we were fish, we would proclaim the ability to live underwater as morally valuable per se. but apart from our obviously self-interested proclamations, there is nothing morally valuable per se about human intelligence.

I confess i enjoy democracy immensely. it is incomparably idiotic, and hence incomparably amusing.

The tax upon land values is the most just and equal of all taxes. it falls only upon those who receive from society a peculiar and valuable benefit, and upon them in proportion to the benefit they receive.it is the taking by the community for the use of the community of that value which is the creation of the community. it is the application of the common property to common uses. when all rent is taken by taxation for the needs of the community, then will the equality ordained by nature be attained.

The purpose of propaganda is not to provide interesting distraction for blasé young gentlemen, but to convince... the masses. but the masses are slow moving, and they always require a certain time before they are ready even to notice a thing, and only after the simplest ideas are repeated thousands of times will the masses finally remember them.

The great masses of people do not consist of philosophers; precisely for the masses, faith is often the sole foundation of a moral attitude. the various substitutes have not proved so successful from the standpoint of results that they could be regarded as a useful replacement for previous religious creeds. but if religious doctrine and faith are really to embrace the broad masses, the unconditional authority of the content of this faith is the foundation of all efficacy.

I think religious movies are more of a subset of the broader historical trend, and also the fact that there is more history in europe, whereas in america, america is about the future. people in europe think more of the past, and that's why i think filmmakers are drawn to it more.

In college, in the early 1950s, i began to learn a little about how science works, the secrets of its great success, how rigorous the standards of evidence must be if we are really to know something is true, how many false starts and dead ends have plagued human thinking, how our biases can colour our interpretation of evidence, and how often belief systems widely held and supported by the political, religious and academic hierarchies turn out to be not just slightly in error, but grotesquely wrong.
Religious College Thinking
No education can be of true advantage to young women but that which trains them up in humble industry, in great plainness of living, in exact modesty of dress.
