I Do Not Believe In

I Was Sitting In A Chair In The Patent Office At Bern When All Of A Sudden A Thought Occurred To Me: "if A Person Falls Freely He Will Not Feel His Own Weight." I Was Startled. This Simple Thought Made A Deep Impression On Me. It Impelled Me Toward A Theory Of Gravitation.

The Gravity Is The First Thing Which You Don't Think

I Didn't Arrive At My Understanding Of The Fundamental Laws Of The Universe Through My Rational Mind.

It Was, Of Course, A Lie What You Read About My Religious Convictions, A Lie Which Is Being Systematically Repeated. I Do Not Believe In A Personal God And I Have Never Denied This But Have Expressed It Clearly. If Something Is In Me Which Can Be Called Religious Then It Is The Unbounded Admiration For The Structure Of The World So Far As Our Science Can Reveal It.

Imagination Is The Highest Form Of Research.
