Albert Einstein Letters to his Daughter

In the late 1980s, Lieserl, the daughter of the famous genius, donated 1,400 letters, written by Einstein, to the Hebrew University, with orders not to publish their contents until two decades after his death. This is one of them, for Lieserl Einstein.

…”When I proposed the theory of relativity, very few understood me, and what I will reveal now to transmit to mankind will also collide with the misunderstanding and prejudice in the world.

I ask you to guard the letters as long as necessary, years, decades, until society is advanced enough to accept what I will explain below.

There is an extremely powerful force that, so far, science has not found a formal explanation to. It is a force that includes and governs all others, and is even behind any phenomenon operating in the universe and has not yet been identified by us.

This universal force is LOVE.

When scientists looked for a unified theory of the universe they forgot the most powerful unseen force.

Love is Light, that enlightens those who give and receive it.

Love is gravity, because it makes some people feel attracted to others.

Love is power, because it multiplies the best we have, and allows humanity not to be extinguished in their blind selfishness. Love unfolds and reveals.

For love we live and die.

Love is God and God is Love.

This force explains everything and gives meaning to life. This is the variable that we have ignored for too long, maybe because we are afraid of love because it is the only energy in the universe that man has not learned to drive at will.

To give visibility to love, I made a simple substitution in my most famous equation.

If instead of E = mc2, we accept that the energy to heal the world can be obtained through love multiplied by the speed of light squared, we arrive at the conclusion that love is the most powerful force there is, because it has no limits.

After the failure of humanity in the use and control of the other forces of the universe that have turned against us, it is urgent that we nourish ourselves with another kind of energy…

If we want our species to survive, if we are to find meaning in life, if we want to save the world and every sentient being that inhabits it, love is the one and only answer.

Perhaps we are not yet ready to make a bomb of love, a device powerful enough to entirely destroy the hate, selfishness and greed that devastate the planet.

However, each individual carries within them a small but powerful generator of love whose energy is waiting to be released.

When we learn to give and receive this universal energy, dear Lieserl, we will have affirmed that love conquers all, is able to transcend everything and anything, because love is the quintessence of life.

I deeply regret not having been able to express what is in my heart, which has quietly beaten for you all my life. Maybe it’s too late to apologize, but as time is relative, I need to tell you that I love you and thanks to you I have reached the ultimate answer! “.

Your father Albert Einstein

ALBERT EINSTEIN QUOTES

I never made one of my discoveries 
through the process of rational thinking.

Three great forces rule the world: 
stupidity, fear and greed.

Life is a Mystery, 
not a problem waiting to be solved.

The significant problems we have cannot be solved 
at the same level of thinking with which we created them.

Time is an illusion.

The separation between past, present and future 
is only an illusion, although a convincing one.

Our separation from each other is an optical illusion.

Once we accept our limits, 
we go beyond them.

It is a wonderful feeling to recognize the unifying features 
of a complex of phenomena 
which present themselves as quite unconnected 
to the direct experience of the senses.

Two things are infinite: 
the universe and human stupidity; 
and I'm not sure about the universe.

Morality is of the highest importance 
-- but for us, not for God.

There is nothing divine about morality, 
it is a purely human affair.

Don't do anything that goes against your conscience,
 even if your country says so.

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

The fear of death is the most unjustified of all fears, 
for there's no risk of accident for someone who's dead.

The only real valuable thing is intuition.

That which is impenetrable to us really exists. 
Behind the secrets of nature remains something subtle, intangible, and inexplicable. 
Veneration for this force beyond anything that we can comprehend is my religion.

Creativity is contagious. Pass it on.

Intelligence is not the ability to store information, 
but to know where to find it.
Past is dead
Future is uncertain;
Present is all you have,
So eat, drink and live merry.

True genius never says he know what he is doing.

The world we have created is a product of our thinking.
It cannot be changed without changing our thinking.

When we change the way we look at things, 
the things we look at change.

Learn from yesterday, 
live for today, 
hope for tomorrow.

Nothing truly valuable can be achieved except 
by the unselfish cooperation of many individuals.

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, 
it can only be changed from one form to another.


A ship is always safe at the shore - 
but that is NOT what it is built for.

If you want to live a happy life, 
tie it to a goal, not to people or things.

Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.

If I had an hour to solve a problem 
I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem 
and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.

Anyone who has never made a mistake 
has never tried anything new.

Love is a better teacher than duty. 

Anger dwells only in the bossom of fools.

I never think of the future - 
it comes soon enough.

Solitude is painful when one is young, but delightful when one is more mature. 

The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, 
but by those who watch them without doing anything

The important thing is not to stop questioning. 
Curiosity has its own reason for existing.

Try not to become a man of success, 
but rather try to become a man of value.

Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.

Look deep into nature, 
and then you will understand everything better. 

Peace cannot be kept by force; 
it can only be achieved by understanding.

When you are courting a nice girl an hour seems like a second. 
When you sit on a red-hot cinder a second seems like an hour. That's relativity. 

The only source of knowledge is experience. 

As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain, and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality.

If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. 

There are two ways to live: you can live as if nothing is a miracle; you can live as if everything is a miracle. 

I am not a genius, I am just curious. I ask many questions. and when the answer is simple, then God is answering.

I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious. 

Those who have the privilege to know have the duty to act.

The value of a college education is not the learning of many facts 
but the training of the mind to think.

Three Rules of Work:
Out of clutter find simplicity.
From discord find harmony.
In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.

There comes a time when the mind 
takes a higher plane of knowledge 
but can never prove how it got there.

Be a loner. That gives you time to wonder, 
to search for the truth. 
Have holy curiosity.
Make your life worth living.
A man should look for what is, 
and not for what he thinks should be.

Any man who reads too much 
and uses his own brain too little 
falls into lazy habits of thinking. 

The value of a man should be seen 
in what he gives and 
not in what he is able to receive. 

The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity 
in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. 

Great spirits have always encountered 
violent opposition from mediocre minds. 

Our task must be to free ourselves 
by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures 
and the whole of nature and its beauty. 

God always takes the simplest way. 

The best way to cheer yourself is to cheer somebody else up.

Men marry women with the hope they will never change. 
Women marry men with the hope they will change. 
Invariably they are both disappointed.

The woman who follows the crowd 
will usually go no further than the crowd. 
The woman who walks alone 
is likely to find herself in places 
no one has ever been before.

Everything is energy and that's all there is. 
Match the frequency of the reality you want 
and you cannot help but get that reality. 
It can be no other way. 
This is not philosophy. This is physics.
