25 Life Lessons From Albert Einstein by WEIRDPC(m): 6:39pm On Dec 07, 2014
Here are 25 life lessons from Albert Einstein:
1. Intellectual growth should commence at birth and cease
only at death.
2. Everyone should be respected as an individual, but no
one idolized.
3. Never do anything against conscience even if the state
demands it.
4. If people are good only because they fear punishment,
and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.
5. A perfection of means, and confusion of aims, seems to
be our main problem.
6. Love is a better teacher than duty.
7. If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well
enough.
8. No problem can be solved from the same level of
consciousness that created it.
9. Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and
expecting different results.
10. Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow.
11. It has become appallingly obvious that our technology
has exceeded our humanity.
12. Everything that can be counted does not necessarily
count; everything that counts cannot necessarily be
counted.
13. Force always attracts men of low morality.
14. Everything should be as simple as it is, but not simpler.
15. A man should look for what is, and not for what he
thinks should be.
16. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain
too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.
17. A person who never made a mistake never tried
anything new.
18. It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in
creative expression and knowledge.
19. Anyone who doesn’t take truth seriously in small
matters cannot be trusted in large ones either.
20. Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition
from mediocre minds.
21. Education is what remains after one has forgotten what
one has learned in school.
22. Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you
everywhere.
23. Anger dwells only in the bosom of fools.
24. Information is not knowledge.
25. Never lose a holy curiosity.

I think what he was trying to say is that the important thing is not to stop questioning.
Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One
cannot help but be in awe when he
contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of
the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if
one tries merely to comprehend a little of this
mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity.

Literally speaking, Einstein doesn't/didn't really comprehend what he said..

Still don't get it though


But thanks for the clarification!
