    Das Wort Gottes ist für mich nicht mehr, als der Ausdruck und das Produkt menschlicher Schwächen. Die Bibel ist eine Sammlung ehrbarer, aber dennoch primitiver Legenden, welche doch ganz schön kindisch sind. Keine Interpretation, wie feinsinnig sie auch sein mag, kann das ändern. (RDF)

    Das Wort Gott ist für mich nichts als Ausdruck und Produkt menschlicher Schwächen, die Bibel eine Sammlung ehrwürdiger, aber doch reichlich primitiver Legenden. Für mich ist die unverfälschte jüdische Religion wie alle anderen Religionen eine Incarnation des primitiven Aberglaubens. Und das jüdische Volk, zu dem ich gern gehöre und mit dessen Mentalität ich tief verwachsen bin, hat für mich doch keine andersartige Dignität als alle anderen Völker. Soweit meine Erfahrung reicht, ist es auch um nichts besser als andere menschliche Gruppierungen, wenn es auch durch Mangel an Macht gegen die schlimmsten Auswüchse gesichert ist. Sonst kann ich nichts 'Auserwähltes' an ihm wahrnehmen. (RDF)

    The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation no matter how subtle can change this. ... For me the Jewish religion like all others is an incarnation of the most childish superstitions. And the Jewish people to whom I gladly belong and with whose mentality I have a deep affinity have no different quality for me than all other people. As far as my experience goes, they are no better than other human groups, although they are protected from the worst cancers by a lack of power. Otherwise I cannot see anything 'chosen' about them.

    המילה 'אלוהים' היא בעבורי שום דבר פרט לתוצר של חולשה אנושית, והתנ"ך הוא אוסף של אגדות נכבדות אך עדיין פרימיטיביות – ואף על פי כן ילדותיות. אף פירוש שלו, מעודן ככל שיהיה, לא יוכל לשנות זאת מבחינתי. הפירושים המעודנים הללו הם כל כך מגוונים בטבעם עד שכמעט ואין להם קשר לטקסט המקורי. (RDF)

    In the temple of science are many mansions, and various indeed are they that dwell therein and the motives that have led them thither. Many take to science out of a joyful sense of superior intellectual power; science is their own special sport to which they look for vivid experience and the satisfaction of ambition; many others are to be found in the temple who have offered the products of their brains on this altar for purely utilitarian purposes. Were an angel of the Lord to come and drive all the people belonging to these two categories out of the temple, the assemblage would be seriously depleted, but there would still be some men, of both present and past times, left inside. Our Planck is one of them, and that is why we love him. I am quite aware that we have just now lightheartedly expelled in imagination many excellent men who are largely, perhaps chiefly, responsible for the buildings of the temple of science; and in many cases, our angel would find it a pretty ticklish job to decide. But of one thing I feel sure: if the types we have just expelled were the only types there were, the temple would never have come to be, any more than a forest can grow which consists of nothing but creepers. For these people any sphere of human activity will do if it comes to a point; whether they become engineers, officers, tradesmen, or scientists depends on circumstances. Now let us have another look at those who have found favor with the angel. Most of them are somewhat odd, uncommunicative, solitary fellows, really less like each other, in spite of these common characteristics, than the hosts of the rejected. What has brought them to the temple? That is a difficult question and no single answer will cover it. (RDF)

    Man tries to make for himself in the fashion that suits him best a simplified and intelligible picture of the world; he then tries to some extent to substitute this cosmos of his for the world of experience, and thus to overcome it. This is what the painter, the poet, the speculative philosopher, and the natural scientist do, each in his own fashion. Each makes this cosmos and its construction the pivot of his emotional life, in order to find in this way the peace and security which he cannot find in the narrow whirlpool of personal experience.

    Höchste Aufgabe des Physikers ist also das Aufsuchen jener allgemeinsten elementaren Gesetze, aus denen durch reine Deduktion das Weltbild zu gewinnen ist. Zu diesen elementaren Gesetzen führt kein logischer Weg, sondern nur die auf Einfühlung in die Erfahrung sich stützende Intuition. (RDF)
  • en: English
    The supreme task of the physicist is to arrive at those universal elementary laws from which the cosmos can be built up by pure deduction. There is no logical path to these laws; only intuition, resting on sympathetic understanding of experience, can reach them. In this methodological uncertainty, one might suppose that there were any number of possible systems of theoretical physics all equally well justified; and this opinion is no doubt correct, theoretically. But the development of physics has shown that at any given moment, out of all conceivable constructions, a single one has always proved itself decidedly superior to all the rest. (RDF)

In the republic of art and science, there are many men who take an equally important part in the intellectual movements of our age. It is the epoch rather than the individual that is important. There is no one dominant personality like Galileo or Newton. Even in the nineteenth century, there were still a few giants who outtopped all others.

    I am not an Atheist. I do not know if I can define myself as a Pantheist. The problem involved is too vast for our limited minds. May I do not reply with a parable? The human mind, no matter how highly trained, cannot grasp the universe. We are in the position of a little child, entering a huge library whose walls are covered to the ceiling with books in many different tongues. The child knows that someone must have written those books. It does not know who or how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. The child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books, a mysterious order, which it does not comprehend, but only dimly suspects. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of the human mind, even the greatest and most cultured, toward God. We see a universe marvelously arranged, obeying certain laws, but we understand the laws only dimly. Our limited minds cannot grasp the mysterious force that sways the constellations. I am fascinated by Spinoza's Pantheism. I admire even more his contributions to modern thought. Spinoza is the greatest of modern philosophers because he is the first philosopher who deals with the soul and the body as one, not as two separate things. (RDF)

    The meaning of relativity has been widely misunderstood. Philosophers play with the word, like a child with a doll. Relativity, as I see it, merely denotes that certain physical and mechanical facts, which have been regarded as positive and permanent, are relative with regard to certain other facts in the sphere of physics and mechanics. It does not mean that everything in life is relative and that we have the right to turn the whole world mischievously topsy-turvy. (RDF)

American scholarship is both patient and inspiring. The Americans show an unselfish devotion to science, which is the very opposite of the conventional European view of your countrymen. Too many of us look upon Americans as dollar chasers. This is a cruel libel, even if it is reiterated thoughtlessly by the Americans themselves. It is not true that the dollar is an American fetish. The American student is not interested in dollars, not even in success as such, but in his task, the object of the search.

    Whereas materialistic historians and philosophers neglect psychic realities, Freud is inclined to overstress their importance. I am not a psychologist, but it seems to me fairly evident that physiological factors, especially our endocrines, control our destiny ... I am not able to venture a judgment on so important a phase of modern thought. However, it seems to me that psychoanalysis is not always salutary. It may not always be helpful to delve into the subconscious. The machinery of our legs is controlled by a hundred different muscles. Do you think it would help us to walk if we analyzed our legs and knew exactly which one of the little muscles must be employed in locomotion and the order in which they work? ... I am not prepared to accept all his conclusions, but I consider his work an immensely valuable contribution to the science of human behavior.

    It is, therefore, quite natural that the churches have always fought against science and have persecuted its supporters. But, on the other hand, I assert that the cosmic religious experience is the strongest and noblest driving force behind scientific research. No one who does not appreciate the terrific exertions, and, above all, the devotion without which pioneer creations in scientific thought cannot come into being, can judge the strength of the feeling out of which alone such work, turned away as it is from immediate practical life, can grow. What a deep faith in the rationality of the structure of the world and what a longing to understand even a small glimpse of the reason revealed in the world there must have been in Kepler and Newton to enable them to unravel the mechanism of the heavens in long years of lonely work! Any one who only knows scientific research in its practical applications may easily come to a wrong interpretation of the state of mind of the men who, surrounded by skeptical contemporaries, have shown the way to kindred spirits scattered over all countries in all centuries. Only those who have dedicated their lives to similar ends can have a living conception of the inspiration which gave these men the power to remain loyal to their purpose in spite of countless failures. It is the cosmic religious sense which grants this power. A contemporary has rightly said that the only deeply religious people of our largely materialistic age are the earnest men of research. (RDF)

    It is easy to follow in the sacred writings of the Jewish people the development of the religion of fear into the moral religion, which is carried further in the New Testament. The religions of all civilized peoples, especially those of the Orient, are principally moral religions. An important advance in the life of a people is the transformation of the religion of fear into the moral religion. But one must avoid the prejudice that regards the religions of primitive peoples as pure fear religions and those of the civilized races as pure moral religions. All are mixed forms, though the moral element predominates in the higher levels of social life. (RDF)

    The longing for guidance, for love and succor, provides the stimulus for the growth of a social or moral conception of God. This is the God of Providence, who protects, decides, rewards and punishes. This is the God who, according to man's widening horizon, loves and provides for the life of the race, or of mankind, or who even loves life itself. He is the comforter in unhappiness and in unsatisfied longing, the protector of the souls of the dead. This is the social or moral idea of God. (RDF)

    Common to all these types is the anthropomorphic character of the idea of God. Only exceptionally gifted individuals or especially noble communities rise essentially above this level; in these there is found a third level of religious experience, even if it is seldom found in a pure form. I will call it the cosmic religious sense. This is hard to make clear to those who do not experience it, since it does not involve an anthropomorphic idea of God; the individual feels the vanity of human desires and aims, and the nobility and marvelous order which are revealed in nature and in the world of thought. He feels the individual destiny as an imprisonment and seeks to experience the totality of existence as a unity full of significance. Indications of this cosmic religious sense can be found even on earlier levels of development—for example, in the Psalms of David and in the Prophets. The cosmic element is much stronger in Buddhism, as, in particular, Schopenhauer's magnificent essays have shown us. The religious geniuses of all times have been distinguished by this cosmic religious sense, which recognizes neither dogmas nor God made in man's image. Consequently there cannot be a church whose chief doctrines are based on the cosmic religious experience. It comes about, therefore, that we find precisely among the heretics of all ages men who were inspired by this highest religious experience; often they appeared to their contemporaries as atheists, but sometimes also as saints. Viewed from this angle, men like Democritus, Francis of Assisi, and Spinoza are near to one another. (RDF)

    For any one who is pervaded with the sense of causal law in all that happens, who accepts in real earnest the assumption of causality, the idea of Being who interferes with the sequence of events in the world is absolutely impossible. Neither the religion of fear nor the social-moral religion can have any hold on him. A God who rewards and punishes is for him unthinkable, because man acts in accordance with an inner and outer necessity, and would, in the eyes of God, be as little responsible as an inanimate object is for the movements which it makes. Science, in consequence, has been accused of undermining morals—but wrongly. The ethical behavior of man is better based on sympathy, education and social relationships, and requires no support from religion. Man's plight would, indeed, be sad if he had to be kept in order through fear of punishment and hope of rewards after death. (RDF)

    Nobody, certainly, will deny that the idea of the existence of an omnipotent, just, and omnibeneficent personal God is able to accord man solace, help, and guidance; also, by virtue of its simplicity it is accessible to the most undeveloped mind. But, on the other hand, there are decisive weaknesses attached to this idea in itself, which have been painfully felt since the beginning of history. That is, if this being is omnipotent, then every occurrence, including every human action, every human thought, and every human feeling and aspiration is also His work; how is it possible to think of holding men responsible for their deeds and thoughts before such an almighty Being? In giving out punishment and rewards He would to a certain extent be passing judgment on Himself. How can this be combined with the goodness and righteousness ascribed to Him?

    Even though the realms of religion and science in themselves are clearly marked off from each other, nevertheless there exist between the two strong reciprocal relationships and dependencies. Though religion may be that which determines the goal, it has, nevertheless, learned from science, in the broadest sense, what means will contribute to the attainment of the goals it has set up. But science can only be created by those who are thoroughly imbued with the aspiration toward truth and understanding. This source of feeling, however, springs from the sphere of religion. To this there also belongs the faith in the possibility that the regulations valid for the world of existence are rational, that is, comprehensible to reason. I cannot conceive of a genuine scientist without that profound faith. The situation may be expressed by an image: science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind. Though I have asserted above that in truth a legitimate conflict between religion and science cannot exist, I must nevertheless qualify this assertion once again on an essential point, with reference to the actual content of historical religions. This qualification has to do with the concept of God. During the youthful period of mankind's spiritual evolution human fantasy created gods in man's own image, who, by the operations of their will were supposed to determine, or at any rate to influence, the phenomenal world. Man sought to alter the disposition of these gods in his own favor by means of magic and prayer. The idea of God in the religions taught at present is a sublimation of that old concept of the gods. Its anthropomorphic character is shown, for instance, by the fact that men appeal to the Divine Being in prayers and plead for the fulfillment of their wishes. (RDF)

    A person who is religiously enlightened appears to me to be one who has, to the best of his ability, liberated himself from the fetters of his selfish desires and is preoccupied with thoughts, feelings, and aspirations to which he clings because of their superpersonal value. It seems to me that what is important is the force of this superpersonal content and the depth of the conviction concerning its overpowering meaningfulness, regardless of whether any attempt is made to unite this content with a divine Being, for otherwise it would not be possible to count Buddha and Spinoza as religious personalities. Accordingly, a religious person is devout in the sense that he has no doubt of the significance and loftiness of those superpersonal objects and goals which neither require nor are capable of rational foundation. They exist with the same necessity and matter-of-factness as he himself. In this sense religion is the age-old endeavor of mankind to become clearly and completely conscious of these values and goals and constantly to strengthen and extend their effect. If one conceives of religion and science according to these definitions then a conflict between them appears impossible. For science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgments of all kinds remain necessary. (RDF)

    The more a man is imbued with the ordered regularity of all events the firmer becomes his conviction that there is no room left by the side of this ordered regularity for causes of a different nature. For him neither the rule of human nor the rule of divine will exists as an independent cause of natural events. To be sure, the doctrine of a personal God interfering with natural events could never be refuted, in the real sense, by science, for this doctrine can always take refuge in those domains in which scientific knowledge has not yet been able to set foot. But I am persuaded that such behavior on the part of the representatives of religion would not only be unworthy but also fatal. For a doctrine which is able to maintain itself not in clear light but only in the dark, will of necessity lose its effect on mankind, with incalculable harm to human progress. In their struggle for the ethical good, teachers of religion must have the stature to give up the doctrine of a personal God, that is, give up that source of fear and hope which in the past placed such vast power in the hands of priests. In their labors they will have to avail themselves of those forces which are capable of cultivating the Good, the True, and the Beautiful in humanity itself. This is, to be sure, a more difficult but an incomparably more worthy task. (RDF)

    If it is one of the goals of religion to liberate mankind as far as possible from the bondage of egocentric cravings, desires, and fears, scientific reasoning can aid religion in yet another sense. Although it is true that it is the goal of science to discover rules which permit the association and foretelling of facts, this is not its only aim. It also seeks to reduce the connections discovered to the smallest possible number of mutually independent conceptual elements. It is in this striving after the rational unification of the manifold that it encounters its greatest successes, even though it is precisely this attempt which causes it to run the greatest risk of falling a prey to illusions. But whoever has undergone the intense experience of successful advances made in this domain is moved by profound reverence for the rationality made manifest in existence. By way of the understanding he achieves a far-reaching emancipation from the shackles of personal hopes and desires, and thereby attains that humble attitude of mind toward the grandeur of reason incarnate in existence, and which, in its profoundest depths, is inaccessible to man. This attitude, however, appears to me to be religious, in the highest sense of the word. And so it seems to me that science not only purifies the religious impulse of the dross of its anthropomorphism but also contributes to a religious spiritualization of our understanding of life. The further the spiritual evolution of mankind advances, the more certain it seems to me that the path to genuine religiosity does not lie through the fear of life, and the fear of death, and blind faith, but through striving after rational knowledge.

This means an intervention on the part of religion into the sphere of science; this is where the struggle of the Church against the doctrines of Galileo and Darwin belongs.

    I just want to explain what I mean when I say that we should try to hold on to physical reality. We are ... all aware of the situation regarding what will turn out to be the basic foundational concepts in physics: the point-mass or the particle is surely not among them; the field, in the Faraday-Maxwell sense, might be, but not with certainty. But that which we conceive as existing should somehow be localized in time and space. That is, the real in one part of space, A, should somehow "exist" independently of that which is thought of as real in another part of space, B. If a physical system stretches over A and B, then what is present in B should somehow have an existence independent of what is present in A. What is actually present in B should thus not depend the type of measurement carried out in the part of space A; it should also be independent of whether or not a measurement is made in A. If one adheres to this program, then one can hardly view the quantum-theoretical description as a complete representation of the physically real. If one attempts, nevertheless, so to view it, then one must assume that the physically real in B undergoes a sudden change because of a measurement in A. My physical instincts bristle at that suggestion. However, if one renounces the assumption that what is present in different parts of space has an independent, real existence, then I don't see at all what physics is supposed to be describing. For what is thought to be a "system" is after all, just conventional, and I do not see how one is supposed to divide up the world objectively so that one can make statements about parts. (RDF)

You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from the fetters of religious indoctrination received in youth. I prefer an attitude of humility corresponding to the weakness of our intellectual understanding of nature and of our own being. (RDF)

    The reciprocal relationship of epistemology and science is of noteworthy kind. They are dependent on each other. Epistemology without contact with science becomes an empty scheme. Science without epistemology is — insofar as it is thinkable at all — primitive and muddled. However, no sooner has the epistemologist, who is seeking a clear system, fought his way through to such a system, than he is inclined to interpret the thought-content of science in the sense of his system and to reject whatever does not fit into his system. The scientist, however, cannot afford to carry his striving for epistemological systematic that far. He accepts gratefully the epistemological conceptual analysis; but the external conditions, which are set for him by the facts of experience, do not permit him to let himself be too much restricted in the construction of his conceptual world by the adherence to an epistemological system. He therefore must appear to the systematic epistemologist as a type of unscrupulous opportunist: he appears as realist insofar as he seeks to describe a world independent of the acts of perception; as idealist insofar as he looks upon the concepts and theories as free inventions of the human spirit ; as positivist insofar as he considers his concepts and theories justified only to the extent to which they furnish a logical representation of relations among sensory experiences. He may even appear as Platonist or Pythagorean insofar as he considers the viewpoint of logical simplicity as an indispensible and effective tool of his research. (RDF)

    While religion prescribes brotherly love in the relations among the individuals and groups, the actual spectacle more resembles a battlefield than an orchestra. Everywhere, in economic as well as in political life, the guiding principle is one of ruthless striving for success at the expense of one's fellow men. This competitive spirit prevails even in school and, destroying all feelings of human fraternity and cooperation, conceives of achievement not as derived from the love for productive and thoughtful work, but as springing from personal ambition and fear of rejection. There are pessimists who hold that such a state of affairs is necessarily inherent in human nature; it is those who propound such views that are the enemies of true religion, for they imply thereby that religious teachings are Utopian ideals and unsuited to afford guidance in human affairs. The study of the social patterns in certain so-called primitive cultures, however, seems to have made it sufficiently evident that such a defeatist view is wholly unwarranted. (RDF)

    Science, in the immediate, produces knowledge and, indirectly, means of action. It leads to methodical action if definite goals are set up in advance. For the function of setting up goals and passing statements of value transcends its domain. While it is true that science, to the extent of its grasp of causative connections, may reach important conclusions as to the compatibility and incompatibility of goals and evaluations, the independent and fundamental definitions regarding goals and values remain beyond science's reach. As regards religion, on the other hand, one is generally agreed that it deals with goals and evaluations and, in general, with the emotional foundation of human thinking and acting, as far as these are not predetermined by the inalterable hereditary disposition of the human species. Religion is concerned with man's attitude toward nature at large, with the establishing of ideals for the individual and communal life, and with mutual human relationship. These ideals religion attempts to attain by exerting an educational influence on tradition and through the development and promulgation of certain easily accessible thoughts and narratives which are apt to influence evaluation and action along the lines of the accepted ideals.

    While it is true that scientific results are entirely independent from religious or moral considerations, those individuals to whom we owe the great creative achievements of science were all of them imbued with the truly religious conviction that this universe of ours is something perfect and susceptible to the rational striving for knowledge.

    Does there truly exist an insuperable contradiction between religion and science? Can religion be superseded by science? The answers to these questions have, for centuries, given rise to considerable dispute and, indeed, bitter fighting. Yet, in my own mind there can be no doubt that in both cases a dispassionate consideration can only lead to a negative answer. What complicates the solution, however, is the fact that while most people readily agree on what is meant by "science," they are likely to differ on the meaning of "religion. (RDF)

This occurs whenever this religious stock of ideas contains dogmatically fixed statements on subjects which belong in the domain of science.

    I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy, accompanied by an educational system which would be oriented toward social goals. In such an economy, the means of production are owned by society itself and are utilized in a planned fashion. A planned economy, which adjusts production to the needs of the community, would distribute the work to be done among all those able to work and would guarantee a livelihood to every man, woman, and child. The education of the individual, in addition to promoting his own innate abilities, would attempt to develop in him a sense of responsibility for his fellow men in place of the glorification of power and success in our present society. Nevertheless, it is necessary to remember that a planned economy is not yet socialism. A planned economy as such may be accompanied by the complete enslavement of the individual. The achievement of socialism requires the solution of some extremely difficult socio-political problems: how is it possible, in view of the far-reaching centralisation of political and economic power, to prevent bureaucracy from becoming all-powerful and overweening? How can the rights of the individual be protected and therewith a democratic counterweight to the power of bureaucracy be assured? (RDF)

    Historic tradition is, so to speak, of yesterday; nowhere have we really overcome what Thorstein Veblen called "the predatory phase" of human development. The observable economic facts belong to that phase and even such laws as we can derive from them are not applicable to other phases. Since the real purpose of socialism is precisely to overcome and advance beyond the predatory phase of human development, economic science in its present state can throw little light on the socialist society of the future.

    I have now reached the point where I may indicate briefly what to me constitutes the essence of the crisis of our time. It concerns the relationship of the individual to society. The individual has become more conscious than ever of his dependence upon society. But he does not experience this dependence as a positive asset, as an organic tie, as a protective force, but rather as a threat to his natural rights, or even to his economic existence. Moreover, his position in society is such that the egotistical drives of his make-up are constantly being accentuated, while his social drives, which are by nature weaker, progressively deteriorate. All human beings, whatever their position in society, are suffering from this process of deterioration. Unknowingly prisoners of their own egotism, they feel insecure, lonely, and deprived of the naive, simple, and unsophisticated enjoyment of life. Man can find meaning in life, short and perilous as it is, only through devoting himself to society. (RDF)

    Production is carried on for profit, not for use. There is no provision that all those able and willing to work will always be in a position to find employment; an "army of unemployed" almost always exists. The worker is constantly in fear of losing his job. Since unemployed and poorly paid workers do not provide a profitable market, the production of consumers' goods is restricted, and great hardship is the consequence. Technological progress frequently results in more unemployment rather than in an easing of the burden of work for all. The profit motive, in conjunction with competition among capitalists, is responsible for an instability in the accumulation and utilization of capital which leads to increasingly severe depressions. Unlimited competition leads to a huge waste of labor, and to that crippling of the social consciousness of individuals. (RDF)

    The owner of the means of production is in a position to purchase the labor power of the worker. By using the means of production, the worker produces new goods which become the property of the capitalist. The essential point about this process is the relation between what the worker produces and what he is paid, both measured in terms of real value. In so far as the labor contract is free what the worker receives is determined not by the real value of the goods he produces, but by his minimum needs and by the capitalists' requirements for labor power in relation to the number of workers competing for jobs. It is important to understand that even in theory the payment of the worker is not determined by the value of his product. (RDF)

    The abstract concept "society" means to the individual human being the sum total of his direct and indirect relations to his contemporaries and to all the people of earlier generations. The individual is able to think, feel, strive, and work by himself; but he depends so much upon society — in his physical, intellectual, and emotional existence — that it is impossible to think of him, or to understand him, outside the framework of society. It is "society" which provides man with food, clothing, a home, the tools of work, language, the forms of thought, and most of the content of thought; his life is made possible through the labor and the accomplishments of the many millions past and present who are all hidden behind the small word "society.

    Private capital tends to become concentrated in few hands, partly because of competition among the capitalists, and partly because technological development and the increasing division of labor encourage the formation of larger units of production at the expense of smaller ones. The result of these developments is an oligarchy of private capital the enormous power of which cannot be effectively checked even by a democratically organized political society. This is true since the members of legislative bodies are selected by political parties, largely financed or otherwise influenced by private capitalists who, for all practical purposes, separate the electorate from the legislature. The consequence is that the representatives of the people do not in fact sufficiently protect the interests of the underprivileged sections of the population. Moreover, under existing conditions, private capitalists inevitably control, directly or indirectly, the main sources of information . It is thus extremely difficult, and indeed in most cases quite impossible, for the individual citizen to come to objective conclusions and to make intelligent use of his political rights. (RDF)

    Reflections of this type made it clear to me as long ago as shortly after 1900, i.e., shortly after Planck's trailblazing work, that neither mechanics nor electrodynamics could claim exact validity. By and by I despaired of the possibility of discovering the true laws by means of constructive efforts based on known facts. The longer and the more despairingly I tried, the more I came to the conviction that only the discovery of a universal formal principle could lead us to assured results. . . . How, then, could such a universal principle be found? After ten years of reflection such a principle resulted from a paradox upon which I had already hit at the age of sixteen: If I pursue a beam of light with the velocity c , I should observe such a beam as a spatially oscillatory electromagnetic field at rest. However, there seems to be no such thing, whether on the bases of experience or according to Maxwell's equations. From the very beginning it appeared to me intuitively clear that, judged from the stand-point of such an observer, everything would have to happen according to the same laws as for an observer who, relative to the earth, was at rest.

    Socialism is directed towards a social-ethical end. Science, however, cannot create ends and, even less, instill them in human beings; science, at most, can supply the means by which to attain certain ends. But the ends themselves are conceived by personalities with lofty ethical ideals and — if these ends are not stillborn, but vital and vigorous — are adopted and carried forward by those many human beings who, half unconsciously, determine the slow evolution of society. For these reasons, we should be on our guard not to overestimate science and scientific methods when it is a question of human problems; and we should not assume that experts are the only ones who have a right to express themselves on questions affecting the organization of society.

    It is quite clear to me that the religious paradise of youth, which was thus lost, was a first attempt to free myself from the chains of the "merely-personal," from an existence which is dominated by wishes, hopes and primitive feelings. Out yonder there was this huge world, which exists independently of us human beings and which stands before us like a great, eternal riddle, at least partially accessible to our inspection and thinking. The contemplation of this world beckoned like a liberation, and I soon noticed that many a man whom I had learned to esteem and to admire had found inner freedom and security in devoted occupation with it. The mental grasp of this extrapersonal world within the frame of the given possibilites swam as highest aim half consciously and half unconsciously before my mind's eye. Similarly motivated men of the present and of the past, as well as the insights which they had achieved, were the friends which could not be lost. The road to this paradise was not as comfortable and alluring as the road to the religious paradise; but it has proved itself as trustworthy, and I have never regretted having chosen it. (RDF)

    Man is, at one and the same time, a solitary being and a social being. As a solitary being, he attempts to protect his own existence and that of those who are closest to him, to satisfy his personal desires, and to develop his innate abilities. As a social being, he seeks to gain the recognition and affection of his fellow human beings, to share in their pleasures, to comfort them in their sorrows, and to improve their conditions of life.

    I now imagine a quantum theoretician who may even admit that the quantum-theoretical description refers to ensembles of systems and not to individual systems, but who, nevertheless, clings to the idea that the type of description of the statistical quantum theory will, in its essential features, be retained in the future. He may argue as follows: True, I admit that the quantum-theoretical description is an incomplete description of the individual system. I even admit that a complete theoretical description is, in principle, thinkable. But I consider it proven that the search for such a complete description would be aimless. For the lawfulness of nature is thus constituted that the laws can be completely and suitably formulated within the framework of our incomplete description. To this I can only reply as follows: Your point of view — taken as theoretical possibility — is incontestable. For me, however, the expectation that the adequate formulation of the universal laws involves the use of all conceptual elements which are necessary for a complete description, is more natural. It is furthermore not at all surprising that, by using an incomplete description, only statistical statements can be obtained out of such description. If it should be possible to move forward to a complete description, it is likely that the laws would represent relations among all the conceptual elements of this description which, per se, have nothing to do with statistics.

    A wonder of such nature I experienced as a child of 4 or 5 years, when my father showed me a compass. That this needle behaved in such a determined way did not at all fit into the nature of events, which could find a place in the unconscious world of concepts . I can still remember—or at least believe I can remember—that this experience made a deep and lasting impression upon me. Something deeply hidden had to be behind things. What man sees before him from infancy causes no reaction of this kind; he is not surprised over the falling of bodies, concerning wind and rain, nor concerning the moon or about the fact that the moon does not fall down, nor concerning the differences between living and non-living matter. At the age of 12 I experienced a second wonder of a totally different nature: in a little book dealing with Euclidean plane geometry, which came into my hands at the beginning of a schoolyear. Here were assertions, as for example the intersection of the three altitudes of a triangle in one point, which—though by no means evident—could nevertheless be proved with such certainty that any doubt appeared to be out of the question. This lucidity and certainty made an indescribable impression upon me. That the axioms had to be accepted unproved did not disturb me. In any case it was quite sufficient for me if I could peg proofs upon propositions the validity of which did not seem to me to be dubious. (RDF)

    Even when I was a fairly precocious young man the nothingness of the hopes and strivings which chases most men restlessly through life came to my consciousness with considerable vitality. Moreover, I soon discovered the cruelty of that chase, which in those years was much more carefully covered up by hypocrisy and glittering words than is the case today. By the mere existence of his stomach everyone was condemned to participate in that chase. Moreover, it was possible to satisfy the stomach by such participation, but not man in so far as he is a thinking and feeling being. As the first way out there was religion, which is implanted into every child by way of the traditional education-machine. Thus I came—despite the fact that I was the son of entirely irreligious parents—to a deep religiosity, which, however, found an abrupt ending at the age of 12. Through the reading of popular scientific books I soon reached the conviction that much in the stories of the Bible could not be true. The consequence was a positively fanatic freethinking coupled with the impression that youth is intentionally being deceived by the state through lies; it was a crushing impression. Suspicion against every kind of authority grew out of this experience, a skeptical attitude towards the convictions which were alive in any specific social environment—an attitude which has never again left me, even though later on, because of a better insight into the causal connections, it lost some of its original poignancy.

    The very fact that the totality of our sense experience is such that by means of thinking it can be put in order, this fact is one which leaves us in awe, but which we shall never understand. One may say "the eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility." . . . In speaking here concerning "comprehensibility," the expression is used in its most modest sense. It implies: the production of some sort of order among sense impressions, this order being produced by the creation of general concepts, relations between these concepts, and by relations between the concepts and sense experience, these relations being determined in any possible manner. It is in this sense that the world of our sense experience is comprehensible. The fact that it is comprehensible is a miracle. (RDF)

    I do not see any reason to assume that the heuristic significance of the principle of general relativity is restricted to gravitation and that the rest of physics can be dealt with separately on the basis of special relativity, with the hope that later on the whole may be fitted consistently into a general relativistic scheme. I do not think that such an attitude, although historically understandable, can be objectively justified. The comparative smallness of what we know today as gravitational effects is not a conclusive reason for ignoring the principle of general relativity in theoretical investigations of a fundamental character. In other words, I do not believe that it is justifiable to ask: What would physics look like without gravitation? (RDF)

    This freedom of communication is indispensable for the development and extension of scientific knowledge, a consideration of much practical import. In the first instance it must be guaranteed by law. But laws alone cannot secure freedom of expression; in order that every man may present his views without penalty there must be a spirit of tolerance in the entire population. Such an ideal of external liberty can never be fully attained but must be sought unremittingly if scientific thought, and philosophical and creative thinking in general, are to be advanced as far as possible.

    And certainly we should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality. It cannot lead, it can only serve; and it is not fastidious in its choice of a leader. This characteristic is reflected in the qualities of its priests, the intellectuals. The intellect has a sharp eye for methods and tools, but is blind to ends and values. So it is no wonder that this fatal blindness is handed on from old to young and today involves a whole generation. (RDF)

    There exists a passion for comprehension, just as there exists a passion for music. That passion is rather common in children, but it gets lost in most people later on. Without this passion, there would be neither mathematics nor natural science. Time and again the passion for understanding has led to the illusion that man is able to comprehend the objective world rationally, by pure thought, without any empirical foundations—in short, by metaphysics. I believe that every true theorist is a kind of tamed metaphysicist, no matter how pure a "positivist" he may fancy himself. The metaphysicist believes that the logically simple is also the real. The tamed metaphysicist believes that not all that is logically simple is embodied in experienced reality, but that the totality of all sensory experience can be "comprehended" on the basis of a conceptual system built on premises of great simplicity. The skeptic will say that this is a "miracle creed." Admittedly so, but it is a miracle creed which has been borne out to an amazing extent by the development of science. (RDF)

    Esiste una passione per la comprensione proprio come esiste una passione per la musica; è una passione molto comune nei bambini, ma che poi la maggior parte degli adulti perde. Senza di essa non ci sarebbero né la matematica né le altre scienze. Più volte la passione per la comprensione ha condotto all'illusione che l'uomo sia in grado di comprendere razionalmente il mondo oggettivo, attraverso il pensiero puro, senza nessuna fondazione empirica; in breve attraverso la metafisica. Sono convinto che ogni teorico vero sia una sorta di metafisico addomesticato, indipendentemente da quanto possa immaginare di essere un puro «positivista». Il metafisico crede che il logicamente semplice sia anche reale. Il metafisico addomesticato crede che non tutto ciò che è logicamente semplice sia incorporato nella realtà esperita, ma che la totalità di tutta l'esperienza sensoriale possa essere «compresa» sulla base di un sistema concettuale costruito su premesse di grande semplicità. Lo scettico dirà che questo è un «credo del miracolo». È proprio così, ma è un credo del miracolo che è nato e cresciuto in maniera straordinaria grazie allo sviluppo della scienza. (RDF)

    In my opinion, condemning the Zionist movement as "nationalistic" is unjustified. Consider the path by which Herzl came to his mission. Initially he had been completely cosmopolitan. But during the Dreyfus trial in Paris he suddenly realized with great clarity how precarious was the situation of the Jews in the western world. And courageously he drew the conclusion that we are discriminated against or murdered not because we are Germans, Frenchmen, Americans, etc. of the "Jewish faith" but simply because we are Jews. Thus already our precarious situation forces us to stand together irrespective of our citizenship. Zionism gave the German Jews no great protection against annihilation. But it did give the survivors the inner strength to endure the debacle with dignity and without losing their healthy self respect. Keep in mind that perhaps a similar fate could be lying in wait for your children. (RDF)

And yet, as always, the springtime sun brings forth new life, and we may rejoice because of this new life and contribute to its unfolding; and Mozart remains as beautiful and tender as he always was and always will be. There is, after all, something eternal that lies beyond reach of the hand of fate and of all human delusions. And such eternals lie closer to an older person than to a younger one oscillating between fear and hope. For us, there remains the privilege of experiencing beauty and truth in their purest forms.

    The world needs new moral impulses which, I'm afraid, won't come from the churches, heavily compromised as they have been throughout the centuries. Perhaps those impulses must come from scientists in the tradition of Galileo, Kepler and Newton. In spite of failures and persecutions, these men devoted their lives to proving that the universe is a single entity, in which, I believe, a humanized God has no place. The genuine scientist is not moved by praise or blame, nor does he preach. He unveils the universe and people come eagerly, without being pushed, to behold a new revelation: the order, the harmony, the magnificence of creation! And as man becomes conscious of the stupendous laws that govern the universe in perfect harmony, he begins to realize how small he is. He sees the pettiness of human existence, with its ambitions and intrigues, its "I am better than thou" creed. This is the beginning of cosmic religion within him; fellowship and human service become his moral code. And without such moral foundations, we are hopelessly doomed. (RDF)

    School failed me, and I failed the school. It bored me. The teachers behaved like Feldwebel . I wanted to learn what I wanted to know, but they wanted me to learn for the exam. What I hated most was the competitive system there, and especially sports. Because of this, I wasn't worth anything, and several times they suggested I leave. This was a Catholic School in Munich. I felt that my thirst for knowledge was being strangled by my teachers; grades were their only measurement. How can a teacher understand youth with such a system? . . . from the age of twelve I began to suspect authority and distrust teachers. I learned mostly at home, first from my uncle and then from a student who came to eat with us once a week. He would give me books on physics and astronomy. The more I read, the more puzzled I was by the order of the universe and the disorder of the human mind, by the scientists who didn't agree on the how, the when, or the why of creation. Then one day this student brought me Kant's Critique of Pure Reason. Reading Kant, I began to suspect everything I was taught. I no longer believed in the known God of the Bible, but rather in the mysterious God expressed in nature. (RDF)

    It is not a religion that teaches that man is made in the image of God—that is anthropomorphic. Man has infinite dimensions and finds God in his conscience. This religion has no dogma other than teaching man that the universe is rational and that his highest destiny is to ponder it and co-create with its laws. There are only two limiting factors: first, that what seems impenetrable to us is as important as what is cut and dried; and, second, that our faculties are dull and can only comprehend wisdom and serene beauty in crude forms, but the heart of man through intuition leads us to greater understanding of ourselves and the universe.

    Many people think that the progress of the human race is based on experiences of an empirical, critical nature, but I say that true knowledge is to be had only through a philosophy of deduction. For it is intuition that improves the world, not just following a trodden path of thought. Intuition makes us look at unrelated facts and then think about them until they can all be brought under one law. To look for related facts means holding onto what one has instead of searching for new facts. Intuition is the father of new knowledge, while empiricism is nothing but an accumulation of old knowledge. Intuition, not intellect, is the 'open sesame' of yourself. (RDF)

    A man who is convinced of the truth of his religion is indeed never tolerant. At the least, he is to feel pity for the adherent of another religion but usually it does not stop there. The faithful adherent of a religion will try first of all to convince those that believe in another religion and usually he goes on to hatred if he is not successful. However, hatred then leads to persecution when the might of the majority is behind it. In the case of a Christian clergyman, the tragic-comical is found in this: that the Christian religion demands love from the faithful, even love for the enemy. This demand, because it is indeed superhuman, he is unable to fulfill. Thus intolerance and hatred ring through the oily words of the clergyman. The love, which on the Christian side is the basis for the conciliatory attempt towards Judaism is the same as the love of a child for a cake. That means that it contains the hope that the object of the love will be eaten up... (RDF)

    Scientific research is based on the assumption that all events, including the actions of mankind, are determined by the laws of nature. Therefore, a research scientist will hardly be inclined to believe that events could be influenced by a prayer, that is, by a wish addressed to a supernatural Being. However, we have to admit that our actual knowledge of these laws is only an incomplete piece of work , so that ultimately the belief in the existence of fundamental all-embracing laws also rests on a sort of faith. All the same, this faith has been largely justified by the success of science. On the other hand, however, every one who is seriously engaged in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that the laws of nature manifest the existence of a spirit vastly superior to that of men, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble. The pursuit of science leads therefore to a religious feeling of a special kind, which differs essentially from the religiosity of more naive people. (RDF)

    Professor Smith has kindly submitted his book to me before publication. After reading it thoroughly and with intense interest I am glad to comply with his request to give him my impression. The work is a broadly conceived attempt to portray man's fear-induced animistic and mythic ideas with all their far-flung transformations and interrelations. It relates the impact of these phantasmagorias on human destiny and the causal relationships by which they have become crystallized into organized religion. This is a biologist speaking, whose scientific training has disciplined him in a grim objectivity rarely found in the pure historian. This objectivity has not, however, hindered him from emphasizing the boundless suffering which, in its end results, this mythic thought has brought upon man. Professor Smith envisages as a redeeming force, training in objective observation of all that is available for immediate perception and in the interpretation of facts without preconceived ideas. In his view, only if every individual strives for truth can humanity attain a happier future; the atavisms in each of us that stand in the way of a friendlier destiny can only thus be rendered ineffective. His historical picture closes with the end of the nineteenth century, and with good reason. By that time it seemed that the influence of these mythic, authoritatively anchored forces which can be denoted as religious, had been reduced to a tolerable level in spite of all the persisting inertia and hypocrisy. Even then, a new branch of mythic thought had already grown strong, one not religious in nature but no less perilous to mankind — exaggerated nationalism. Half a century has shown that this new adversary is so strong that it places in question man's very survival. It is too early for the present-day historian to write about this problem, but it is to be hoped that one will survive who can undertake the task at a later date. (RDF)

They are like slaves who are still feeling the weight of their chains which they have thrown off after hard struggle. They are creatures who—in their grudge against the traditional "opium for the people"—cannot bear the music of the spheres. The Wonder of nature does not become smaller because one cannot measure it by the standards of human moral and human aims. (RDF)

    I have found no better expression than "religious" for confidence in the rational nature of reality as it is accessible to human reason. Wherever this feeling is absent, science degenerates into uninspired empiricism. ... I cannot accept your opinion concerning science and ethics or the determination of aims. What we call science has the sole purpose of determining what is. The determining of what ought to be is unrelated to it and cannot be accomplished methodically. Science can only arrange ethical propositions logically and furnish the means for the realization of ethical aims, but the determination of aims is beyond its scope. At least that is the way I see it. (RDF)

De même un être doué d'une perception supérieure et d'une intelligence plus parfaite, regardant l'homme et ses œuvres, sourirait de l'illusion que cet homme nourrit d'agir selon sa propre volonté libre. C'est ma conviction, quoique je sache qu'elle n'est pas pleinement démontrable.

    Possiamo distinguere vari tipi di teorie nella fisica. Per la maggior parte sono costruttive. Tentano di ricavare un quadro dei fenomeni più complessi dai materiali di uno schema formale relativamente semplice, da cui prendono le mosse. Così la teoria cinetica dei gas cerca di ridurre i processi meccanici, termici e di propagazione a movimenti di molecole, cioè a ricavarli dalle ipotesi del moto molecolare. Quando diciamo che siamo riusciti a comprendere un insieme di processi naturali, invariabilmente intendiamo dire che abbiamo trovato una teoria costruttiva che copre i processi in questione. Insieme a questa classe di teorie assai importante ne esiste una seconda, che chiamerò delle «teorie dei principi». Queste impiegano il metodo analitico, anziché quello sintetico. Gli elementi che ne costituiscono la base e il punto di partenza non sono stati costruiti per via ipotetica, ma vi si è giunti in modo empirico; essi sono caratteristiche generali di processi naturali, principi che danno origine a criteri formulati in modo matematico, che i processi separati o le loro rappresentazioni teoriche devono saper soddisfare. Così la scienza della termodinamica cerca di dedurre con mezzi analitici i nessi necessari – che gli eventi separati devono soddisfare – del fatto universalmente provato che il moto perpetuo è impossibile. I vantaggi della teoria costruttiva sono la completezza, l'adattabilità e la chiarezza, quelli della teoria dei principi sono la perfezione logica e la sicurezza dei fondamenti. La teoria della relatività appartiene a quest'ultima classe. Al fine di coglierne la natura, occorre prima di tutto acquisire dimestichezza con i principi su cui si fonda. (RDF)

    Nella fase giovanile dell'evoluzione spirituale dell'uomo la fantasia umana creò a propria immagine divinità che supponeva dovessero determinare, o quantomeno influenzare con le direttive della loro volontà, il mondo fenomenologico. L'uomo cercava di modificare a proprio vantaggio l'atteggiamento di tali divinità con la magia e con la preghiera. L'idea di Dio nelle religioni insegnate oggi, è una sublimazione di quell'antica concezione degli dèi. Il suo carattere antropomorfico è dimostrato, per esempio, dal fatto che gli uomini si rivolgano all'Essere Divino con preghiere, e ne implorino l'esaudimento dei propri desideri. (RDF)

    На ранних этапах духовной эволюции человечества человеческая фантазия создала по образу и подобию человека богов, которые, действуя по своей воле, должны были определять мир явлений или, во всяком случае, повлиять на него. Люди считали, что можно изменить предначертания богов в свою пользу посредством магии или молитвы. Идея Бога, как её подаёт религия, в настоящее время является сублимацией этой старой концепции богов. Её антропоморфный характер вытекает, например, из того факта, что человек обращается к божеству в молитве и просит его о выполнении своих желаний… В своей борьбе за этическое добро, учителя от религии должны иметь мужество отказаться от доктрины Бога как личности, то есть отказаться от этого источника страха и надежды, который в прошлом дал такую всеобъемлющую власть в руки служителей церкви. В своих работах они должны будут посвятить себя тем силам, которые способны культивировать Божественность, Истину и Красоту в самом человечестве. (RDF)

    All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom. It is no mere chance that our older universities developed from clerical schools. Both churches and universities — insofar as they live up to their true function — serve the ennoblement of the individual. They seek to fulfill this great task by spreading moral and cultural understanding, renouncing the use of brute force. The essential unity of ecclesiastical and secular institutions was lost during the 19th century, to the point of senseless hostility. Yet there was never any doubt as to the striving for culture. No one doubted the sacredness of the goal. It was the approach that was disputed. (RDF)

    How it happened that I in particular discovered the relativity theory, it seemed to lie in the following circumstance. The normal adult never bothers his head about space-time problems. Everything there is to be thought about it, in his opinion, has already been done in early childhood.

In consequence I probed deeper into the problem than an ordinary child would have done. (RDF)

Una mente che aneli all'unificazione della teoria non può essere paga del fatto che debbano esistere due campi i quali, per loro natura, siano indipendenti tra loro. Si cerca una teoria del campo, unificata sotto il profilo matematico, in cui il campo gravitazionale e il campo elettromagnetico siano interpretati solo come componenti o manifestazioni diverse di uno stesso campo uniforme e in cui, se possibile, le equazioni del campo non consistano più in addendi tra loro logicamente indipendenti.

    occorre tener presente che esiste un numero infinito di spazi, i quali sono in moto gli uni rispetto agli altri. Il concetto di spazio come qualcosa che esiste oggettivamente ed è indipendente dalle cose appartiene già al pensiero prescientifico, non così però l'idea dell'esistenza di un numero infinito di spazi in moto gli uni rispetto agli altri. Quest'ultima idea è senza dubbio inevitabile da un punto di vista logico, ma per lungo tempo non svolse una parte importante nemmeno nel pensiero scientifico. (RDF)

    It is not enough to teach a man a specialty. Through it he may become a kind of useful machine but not a harmoniously developed personality. It is essential that the student acquire an understanding of and a lively feeling for values. He must acquire a vivid sense of the beautiful and of the morally good. Otherwise he—with his specialized knowledge—more closely resembles a well-trained dog than a harmoniously developed person. He must learn to understand the motives of human beings, their illusions, and their sufferings in order to acquire a proper relationship to individual fellow-men and to the community. These precious things are conveyed to the younger generation through personal contact with those who teach, not—or at least not in the main—through textbooks. It is this that primarily constitutes and preserves culture. This is what I have in mind when I recommend the "humanities" as important, not just dry specialized knowledge in the fields of history and philosophy. (RDF)

    Cosa ci spinge, dunque, ad elaborare teoria dopo teoria? Perché, addirittura, formuliamo teorie? La risposta alla seconda domanda è semplice: perché amiamo «comprendere», ossia ridurre i fenomeni per mezzo del procedimento logico a qualcosa di già noto o evidente. Prima di tutto sono necessarie nuove teorie quando si affrontano fatti nuovi che non possono essere «spiegati» da teorie esistenti. Ma questa motivazione è, per così dire, banale, imposta dall'esterno. C'è un'altra motivazione più sottile e di non minore importanza. Si tratta dello sforzo verso l'unificazione e la semplificazione delle premesse della teoria nel suo insieme . (RDF)

Anche se gli assiomi della teoria sono imposti dall'uomo, il successo di una tale costruzione presuppone un alto grado d'ordine nel mondo oggettivo, e cioè un qualcosa che, a priori, non si è per nulla autorizzati ad attendersi. È questo il «miracolo» che vieppiù si rafforza con lo sviluppo delle nostre conoscenze. È qui che si trova il punto debole dei positivisti e degli atei di professione, felici solo perché hanno la coscienza di avere, con pieno successo, spogliato il mondo non solo degli dei, ma anche dei «miracoli».

    Il giudaismo non è una dottrina: il Dio ebraico è semplicemente la negazione della superstizione, un esito immaginario della sua negazione. È altresì un tentativo di basare la legge morale sulla paura, un tentativo deplorevole e disdicevole. Eppure mi sembra che la forte tradizione morale della nazione ebraica si sia in larga parte liberata da questa paura. È chiaro anche che "servire Dio" era equiparato a "servire il vivente". I migliori del popolo ebraico, specialmente i profeti e Gesù, hanno lottato instancabilmente per questo. (RDF)

    La grande superiorità della teoria cartesiana non consiste soltanto nel fatto d'aver messo l'analisi al servizio della geometria.

Invece nella dottrina cartesiana tutte le superfici, ad esempio, sono equivalenti per principio e la preferenza nell'edificio geometrico non è deliberatamente accordata alla forma lineare. (RDF)

È stato Hahn a scoprirla a Berlino, e lui stesso ha frainteso il senso della propria stessa scoperta. È stata Lise Meitner a fornire l'interpretazione corretta.

Ma non posso proprio farmi un'idea chiara di ciò che s'intende per "verità religiosa. (RDF)

    If one purges the Judaism of the Prophets and Christianity as Jesus Christ taught it of all subsequent additions, especially those of the priests, one is left with a teaching which is capable of curing all the social ills of humanity. It is the duty of every man of good will to strive steadfastly in his own little world to make this teaching of pure humanity a living force, so far as he can. If he makes an honest attempt in this direction without being crushed and trampled under foot by his contemporaries, he may consider himself and the community to which he belongs lucky. (RDF)

    Sono riuscito a dimostrare, con un calcolo semplice, che le equazioni di gravitazione valgono per ogni sistema di riferimento che soddisfi a queste condizioni. Ne consegue che esistono trasformazioni d'accelerazione di varia natura, che mutano le equazioni in sé stesse , cosicché l'ipotesi di equivalenza si conserva nella sua forma più primitiva, e perfino in misura insospettabilmente ampia. L'equivalenza rigorosa tra massa inerziale e massa gravitazionale, e anche massa del campo gravitazionale, l'avevo già dimostrata, credo, all'epoca della tua visita. A questo punto indipendentemente dal fatto che l'osservazione dell'eclisse solare abbia o non abbia successo, mi ritengo soddisfatto, e non dubito più della validità di tutto il sistema: la fondatezza della cosa è fin troppo evidente.

    Fu allora che avvenne il grande sconvolgimento al quale resteranno sempre legati i nomi di, Maxwell e Hertz; ma è Maxwell che in questa rivoluzione ha avuto la parte del leone. Egli ha dimostrato che quanto si conosceva allora intorno alla luce e ai fenomeni elettromagnetici è rappresentato dal suo noto sistema doppio delle equazioni differenziali parziali, nelle quali il campo elettrico e il campo magnetico intervengono come variabili dipendenti. Maxwell a dire il vero ha cercato di dare una base a queste equazioni o di giustificarle per mezzo delle idee della meccanica. (RDF)

    When we survey our lives and endeavors we soon observe that almost the whole of our actions and desires are bound up with the existence of other human beings. We see that our whole nature resembles that of the social animals. We eat food that others have grown, wear clothes that others have made, live in houses that others have built. The greater part of our knowledge and beliefs has been communicated to us by other people through the medium of a language which others have created. Without language our mental capacities would be poor indeed, comparable to those of the higher animals; we have, therefore, to admit that we owe our principal advantage over the beasts to the fact of living in human society. The individual, if left alone from birth would remain primitive and beast-like in his thoughts and feelings to a degree that we can hardly conceive. The individual is what he is and has the significance that he has not so much in virtue of his individuality, but rather as a member of a great human society, which directs his material and spiritual existence from the cradle to the grave.

    Come nessun altro ha mai fatto prima o dopo di lui, Newton ha indicato il cammino al pensiero, allo studio e alla formazione pratica dell'occidente. Egli non è soltanto il creatore geniale di particolari metodi direttivi, egli ha anche dominato in modo singolare gli elementi empirici conosciuti nel suo tempo e il suo spirito è apparso meravigliosamente ingegnoso nell'argomentazione matematica e fisica. Per tutte queste ragioni egli è degno della nostra alta venerazione. Ma questa nobile figura ha un'importanza anche maggiore di quella dovuta alla sua autorità di maestro perché la sorte lo ha collocato a una svolta dello sviluppo dello spirito umano. Per rendercene esattamente conto, non dobbiamo dimenticare che, prima di Newton, non esisteva alcun sistema ben definito di causalità fisica capace di cogliere i tratti più profondi del mondo dell'esperienza.

    Tuttavia c'è un terzo stato di esperienza religiosa che li riguarda tutti, sebbene solo raramente si trovi nella sua forma pura, e che chiameremo sentimento religioso cosmico. È molto difficile spiegare questo sentimento a chi ne sia totalmente privo, specialmente perché non c'è alcun concetto antropomorfico di Dio che vi corrisponde. L'individuo percepisce l'inutilità dei desideri e degli scopi umani e la sublimità e l'ordine meraviglioso che si manifestano in natura e nel mondo del pensiero. Considera l'esistenza individuale come una sorta di prigione e vuole indagare l'universo come un tutto unico pieno di significato. Grandi spiriti religiosi di tutti i tempi si sono distinti per questo tipo di sentimento religioso che non conosce né dogmi né un Dio concepito a immagine dell'uomo; così non vi può essere una Chiesa i cui insegnamenti centrali vi siano basati. Secondo me, la funzione più importante dell'arte e della scienza è proprio quella di risvegliare questo sentimento e tenerlo vivo in quelli che non sono in grado di sentirlo. (RDF)

    You will hardly find one among the profounder sort of scientific minds without a peculiar religious feeling of his own. But it is different from the religion of the naive man. For the latter God is a being from whose care one hopes to benefit and whose punishment one fears; a sublimation of a feeling similar to that of a child for its father, a being to whom one stands to some extent in a personal relation, however deeply it may be tinged with awe. But the scientist is possessed by the sense of universal causation. The future, to him, is every whit as necessary and determined as the past. There is nothing divine about morality, it is a purely human affair. His religious feeling takes the form of a rapturous amazement at the harmony of natural law, which reveals an intelligence of such superiority that, compared with it, all the systematic thinking and acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection. This feeling is the guiding principle of his life and work, in so far as he succeeds in keeping himself from the shackles of selfish desire. It is beyond question closely akin to that which has possessed the religious geniuses of all ages. (RDF)

    Why does this magnificent applied science which saves work and makes life easier bring us so little happiness? The simple answer runs: Because we have not yet learned to make sensible use of it. In war it serves that we may poison and mutilate each other. In peace it has made our lives hurried and uncertain. Instead of freeing us in great measure from spiritually exhausting labor, it has made men into slaves of machinery, who for the most part complete their monotonous long day's work with disgust and must continually tremble for their poor rations. ... It is not enough that you should understand about applied science in order that your work may increase man's blessings. Concern for the man himself and his fate must always form the chief interest of all technical endeavours; concern for the great unsolved problems of the organization of labor and the distribution of goods in order that the creations of our mind shall be a blessing and not a curse to mankind.

    Per quanto riguarda Mach, è bene distinguere tra l'influenza che ebbe in generale e quella che esercitò su di me in particolare. Mach ha compiuto significative ricerche sperimentali ; ma non di questo vogliamo discutere, bensì di come influenzò la visione generale dei concetti di base della fisica. In questa prospettiva il suo grande merito sta, a mio parere, nell'aver allentato il dogmatismo che dominava in quell'ambito nei secoli XVIII e XIX. Egli ha cercato di mettere in luce, specialmente nei campi della meccanica e della teoria del calore, il modo in cui i concetti hanno avuto origine dall'esperienza; Mach sosteneva in maniera convincente l'opinione che finanche i più basilari tra i concetti fisici si fondano sui dati empirici e, da un punto di vista logico, non sono in alcun modo necessari. Evidenziando come nella fisica siano cruciali i problemi connessi ai concetti di base, più che quelli d'ordine logico-matematico, egli ha esercitato un'influenza particolarmente salutare. Il suo punto debole stava, a mio modo di vedere, nel considerare l'attività scientifica all'incirca un semplice «mettere ordine» nei materiali empirici. Egli, insomma, non rese giustizia all'elemento di libera volontà costruttiva presente nella formazione dei concetti. Riteneva, in certo modo, che all'origine delle teorie vi fossero «scoperte» e non «invenzioni», spingendosi addirittura a vedere, nelle sensazioni, unità costitutive del mondo reale piuttosto che semplici oggetti di comprensione; pensava di poter colmare in tal modo lo iato fra psicologia e fisica. Fosse stato coerente fino in fondo, avrebbe dovuto rifiutare non solo l'atomismo, ma l'idea stessa d'una realtà fisica. (RDF)

Che non abbiano a verificarsi inconvenienti militari finché gli Stati Uniti detengono l'esclusiva della bomba. Ma non appena un altro paese sarà in grado di produrne in quantità consistenti, l'assenza di un accordo internazionale porrà gli Stati Uniti in condizioni di forte svantaggio, a causa della vulnerabilità delle sue industrie, così concentrate nel territorio, e dell'alto sviluppo della sua vita urbana.

Il concetto di «vero» non si addice alle asserzioni della geometria pura, perché con la parola «vero» noi abbiamo in definitiva l'abitudine di designare sempre la corrispondenza con un oggetto «reale»; la geometria, invece, non si occupa della relazione fra i concetti da essa presi in esame e gli oggetti dell'esperienza, ma soltanto dalla connessione logica di tali concetti l'uno con l'altro.

    The scientific organization and comprehensive exposition in accessible form of the Talmud has a twofold importance for us Jews. It is important in the first place that the high cultural values of the Talmud should not be lost to modern minds among the Jewish people nor to science, but should operate further as a living force. In the second place, The Talmud must be made an open book to the world, in order to cut the ground from under certain malevolent attacks, of anti-Semitic origin, which borrow countenance from the obscurity and inaccessibility of certain passages in the Talmud. To support this cultural work would thus mean an important achievement for the Jewish people. (RDF)

    Senza dubbio la gravitazione è stata riportata alla struttura dello spazio; ma, al di fuori del campo di gravitazione, c'è ancora il campo elettromagnetico; è stato necessario introdurre questo ultimo nella teoria, come una formazione indipendente dalla gravitazione. Nell'equazione di condizione per il campo si sono dovuti introdurre alcuni termini supplementari corrispondenti all'esistenza del campo elettromagnetico. Ma il pensiero teoretico non saprebbe sopportare l'idea che ci sono due strutture di spazio indipendenti l'una dall'altra: una di gravitazione metrica, l'altra elettromagnetica. S'impone la convinzione che queste due specie di campo devono corrispondere a una struttura unitaria dello spazio. Ora la «teoria del campo unitario», che si presenta come un'estensione matematicamente indipendente della teoria della relatività generalizzata, cerca di rispondere a questo postulato. (RDF)

If there is any such concept as a God, it is a subtle spirit, not an image of a man that so many have fixed in their minds.

To sense that behind anything that can be experienced there is a something that our mind cannot grasp and whose beauty and sublimity reaches us only indirectly and as a feeble reflection, this is religiousness. In this sense I am religious. To me it suffices to wonder at these secrets and to attempt humbly to grasp with my mind a mere image of the lofty structure of all that there is. (RDF)

A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, our perceptions of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty, which only in their most primitive forms are accessible to our minds: it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute true religiosity.

    Se ci domandiamo come debba venir considerato l'universo, inteso quale un tutto, la prima risposta che si presenta da sé è certamente questa: l'universo è infinito per quanto riguarda lo spazio . Esistono dovunque delle stelle, per cui la densità della materia, sebbene sia molto variabile nei particolari, è nondimeno in media dovunque la stessa. In altre parole: viaggiando attraverso lo spazio in zone comunque lontane, troveremmo dappertutto uno sciame diradato di stelle fisse all'incirca dello stesso genere e della stessa densità. Questa concezione è incompatibile con la teoria di Newton. Secondo quest'ultima l'universo deve invece avere una specie di centro in cui la densità delle stelle è massima, e man mano che ci allontaniamo da questo centro la densità delle stelle deve diminuire, finché in ultimo, a distanze immense, le succede una zona infinito di vuoto. L'universo sidereo dovrebbe costituire un'isola finita nell'oceano infinito dello spazio. (RDF)

    The theory of relativity is a beautiful example of the basic character of the modern development of theory. That is to say, the hypotheses from which one starts become ever more abstract and more remote from experience. But in return one comes closer to the preeminent goal of science, that of encompassing a maximum of empirical contents through logical deduction with a minimum of hypotheses or axioms. The intellectual path from the axioms to the empirical contents or to the testable consequences becomes, thereby, ever longer and more subtle. The theoretician is forced, ever more, to allow himself to be directed by purely mathematical, formal points of view in the search for theories, because the physical experience of the experimenter is not capable of leading us up to the regions of the highest abstraction. Tentative deduction takes the place of the predominantly inductive methods appropriate to the youthful state of science. Such a theoretical structure must be quite thoroughly elaborated in order for it to lead to consequences that can be compared with experience. It is certainly the case that here, as well, the empirical fact is the all-powerful judge. But its judgment can be handed down only on the basis of great and difficult intellectual effort that first bridges the wide space between the axioms and the testable consequences. The theorist must accomplish this Herculean task with the clear understanding that this effort may only be destined to prepare the way for a death sentence for his theory. One should not reproach the theorist who undertakes such a task by calling him a fantast; instead, one must allow him his fantasizing, since for him there is no other way to his goal whatsoever. Indeed, it is no planless fantasizing, but rather a search for the logically simplest possibilities and their consequences. (RDF)

    I fully agree with you about the significance and educational value of methodology as well as history and philosophy of science. So many people today — and even professional scientists — seem to me like someone who has seen thousands of trees but has never seen a forest. A knowledge of the historic and philosophical background gives that kind of independence from prejudices of his generation from which most scientists are suffering. This independence created by philosophical insight is — in my opinion — the mark of distinction between a mere artisan or specialist and a real seeker after truth. (RDF)

A történelmi és filozófiai háttértudás adja meg a függetlenséget a generációjának azon előítéleteitől, amelyektől a legtöbb tudós szenved. Véleményem szerint - Ez a filozófiai meglátás által megteremtett függetlenség különbözteti meg az egyszerű iparos embert az igazság igaz kutatójától. (RDF)

    La sola giustificazione dei nostri concetti e dei nostri sistemi di concetti è il fatto che essi servono a rappresentare l'insieme delle nostre esperienze; a parte questo, essi non hanno nessuna legittimità. Sono convinto che i filosofi hanno sempre avuto un effetto dannoso sul progresso del pensiero scientifico poiché hanno sottratto molti concetti fondamentali al dominio dell'empirismo, nel quale si trovano sotto il nostro controllo e li hanno portati alle intangibili altezze dell'a priori. Infatti, anche se dovesse risultare che il mondo delle idee non può essere dedotto dall'esperienza attraverso mezzi logici ma è, in un certo senso, una creazione della mente umana, senza la quale non è possibile nessuna scienza, il mondo delle idee risulterebbe altrettanto indipendente dalla natura delle nostre esperienze quanto lo sono i vestiti dalla forma del corpo. Questo in particolare è vero per i nostri concetti del tempo e dello spazio, che i fisici sono stati costretti dai fatti a far scendere dall'Olimpo dell'a priori per adattarli e renderli utilizzabili.

    Video disponibile su Youtube.com. Secondo lo scienziato William C. Waterhouse lo stralcio riportato dal Time Magazine sarebbe stato estrapolato da un commento casuale rilasciato dallo scienziato ad un giornalista, durante il periodo in cui Einstein viveva ancora in Germania. L'opinione di Waterhouse trova conferma in una lettera successiva dello scienziato, risalente al 14 novembre 1950. Si tratta di una lettera di risposta ad una missiva invitagli da un pastore di una chiesa di Brooklyn, l'11 novembre 1950. Nella lettera il pastore ricordò che dopo l'avvento di Hitler, Einstein aveva rilasciato tale dichiarazione e chiese gentilmente ad Einstein di inviargli una copia manoscritta di quel brano. Einstein rispose così: «Sono colpito dal tono generoso e leale della Sua lettera dell'11 novembre. Sono tuttavia un po' imbarazzato. Le parole che Lei cita non sono mie. Poco dopo l'ascesa al potere da parte di Hitler, ebbi un colloquio con un giornalista su questi argomenti. Da allora le mie osservazioni sono state rielaborate ed esagerate: non le riconosco più. Non posso trascrivere in buona fede il brano che Lei mi manda, credendolo mio. L'argomento è ancora più imbarazzante per me perché, come Lei, sono estremamente critico nei confronti degli atteggiamenti e soprattutto delle attività politiche del clero ufficiale nel corso della storia. Quindi il brano, anche se potessi trascriverlo con le mie parole originali dà un'impressione sbagliata del mio pensiero a riguardo. (RDF)

    Eppure ogni teoria è speculativa. Quando i concetti fondamentali di una teoria sono relativamente «vicini all'esperienza» , il suo carattere speculativo non è facilmente individuabile. Se, però, una teoria è tale da richiedere l'applicazione di procedimenti logici complessi per raggiungere conclusioni, a partire dalle premesse, che possano essere confrontate con l'osservazione, chiunque acquisisce la consapevolezza della natura speculativa della teoria. In tal caso sorge un sentimento quasi irresistibile di avversione in coloro che non hanno esperienza nell'analisi epistemologica e che non sono consapevoli della natura precaria del pensiero teorico in quei campi che sono loro familiari. D'altro canto, si deve ammettere che una teoria ha un vantaggio considerevole se i suoi concetti base e le sue ipotesi fondamentali sono «vicini all'esperienza» ed è certamente giustificata una maggior fiducia in una teoria di questo tipo. Si corre meno il pericolo di andare completamente fuori strada, soprattutto perché ci vuole molto meno tempo e sforzo per invalidare tali teorie con l'esperienza. Eppure, via via che la profondità della nostra conoscenza aumenta, dobbiamo rinunciare a questo vantaggio nella nostra ricerca di semplicità logica e di uniformità nei fondamenti della teoria fisica. Si deve ammettere che la relatività è andata oltre le teorie fisiche precedenti nel rinunciare alla «vicinanza all'esperienza» dei concetti fondamentali allo scopo di raggiungere la semplicità logica.

    Some recent work by E. Fermi and L.

Certain aspects of the situation seem to call for watchfulness and, if necessary, quick action on the part of the Administration... This new phenomenon would also lead to the construction of bombs, and it is conceivable—though much less certain—that extremely powerful bombs of a new type may thus be constructed. A single bomb of this type, carried by boat or exploded in a port, might very well destroy the whole port together with some of the surrounding territory. However, such bombs might very well prove to be too heavy for transportation by air. (RDF)

    Idealai, kurie apšvietė mano kelią ir laikas nuo laiko man suteikė drąsos, kad sutikčiau gyvenimą linksmai, buvo Geranoriškumas, Grožis ir Tiesa. Be giminystės jausmo su žmogiškomis būtybėmis, be užimtumo objektyviu pasauliu, be amžinos nepasiekiamybės mokslo ir meno srityse, gyvenimas man būtų atrodęs tuščias. Nuvalkioti žmonių dėmesio objektai – turtai, išorinė sėkmė, prabanga, – man visuomet atrodė niekingi. (RDF)

    This topic brings me to that worst outcrop of the herd nature, the military system, which I abhor. That a man can take pleasure in marching in formation to the strains of a band is enough to make me despise him. He has only been given his big brain by mistake; a backbone was all he needed. This plague-spot of civilization ought to be abolished with all possible speed. Heroism by order, senseless violence, and all the pestilent nonsense that does by the name of patriotism--how I hate them! War seems to me a mean, contemptible thing: I would rather be hacked in pieces than take part in such an abominable business.

    A man's value to the community depends primarily on how far his feelings, thoughts, and actions are directed towards promoting the good of his fellows. We call him good or bad according to how he stands in this matter. It looks at first sight as if our estimate of a man depended entirely on his social qualities. And yet such an attitude would be wrong. It is clear that all the valuable things, material, spiritual, and moral, which we receive from society can be traced back through countless generations to certain creative individuals. The use of fire, the cultivation of edible plants, the steam engine — each was discovered by one man. Only the individual can think, and thereby create new values for society — nay, even set up new moral standards to which the life of the community conforms. Without creative, independently thinking and judging personalities the upward development of society is as unthinkable as the development of the individual personality without the nourishing soil of the community. The health of society thus depends quite as much on the independence of the individuals composing it as on their close political cohesion. (RDF)

    How does it happen that a properly endowed natural scientist comes to concern himself with epistemology? Is there not some more valuable work to be done in his specialty? That's what I hear many of my colleagues ask, and I sense it from many more. But I cannot share this sentiment. When I think about the ablest students whom I have encountered in my teaching — that is, those who distinguish themselves by their independence of judgment and not just their quick-wittedness — I can affirm that they had a vigorous interest in epistemology. They happily began discussions about the goals and methods of science, and they showed unequivocally, through tenacious defense of their views, that the subject seemed important to them. Concepts that have proven useful in ordering things easily achieve such authority over us that we forget their earthly origins and accept them as unalterable givens. Thus they might come to be stamped as "necessities of thought," "a priori givens," etc. The path of scientific progress is often made impassable for a long time by such errors. Therefore it is by no means an idle game if we become practiced in analysing long-held commonplace concepts and showing the circumstances on which their justification and usefulness depend, and how they have grown up, individually, out of the givens of experience. Thus their excessive authority will be broken. They will be removed if they cannot be properly legitimated, corrected if their correlation with given things be far too superfluous, or replaced if a new system can be established that we prefer for whatever reason.

    It has often been said, and certainly not without justification, that the man of science is a poor philosopher. Why then should it not be the right thing for the physicist to let the philosopher do the philosophizing? Such might indeed be the right thing to do at a time when the physicist believes he has at his disposal a rigid system of fundamental laws which are so well established that waves of doubt can't reach them; but it cannot be right at a time when the very foundations of physics itself have become problematic as they are now. At a time like the present, when experience forces us to seek a newer and more solid foundation, the physicist cannot simply surrender to the philosopher the critical contemplation of theoretical foundations; for he himself knows best and feels more surely where the shoe pinches. In looking for an new foundation, he must try to make clear in his own mind just how far the concepts which he uses are justified, and are necessities. (RDF)

    È per questa ragione che negli ultimi tempi abbiamo dovuto assistere ripetutamente al licenziamento di degni docenti universitari contro la volontà dei loro colleghi, azioni di cui la stampa ha informato il pubblico in modo non adeguato. È sempre alla pressione di questa minoranza economicamente dominante che dobbiamo l'infausta istituzione del giuramento del docente, ideato per limitare la libertà d'insegnamento. Non c'è bisogno che mi soffermi sul fatto che la libertà d'insegnamento e di opinione nei libri o nella stampa è il fondamento di un sano e naturale sviluppo di qualsiasi popolo. (RDF)

    The cult of individual personalities is always, in my view, unjustified. To be sure, nature distributes her gifts variously among her children. But there are plenty of the well-endowed ones too, thank God, and I am firmly convinced that most of them live quiet, unregarded lives. It strikes me as unfair, and even in bad taste, to select a few of them for boundless admiration, attributing superhuman powers of mind and character to them. This has been my fate, and the contrast between the popular estimate of my powers and achievements and the reality is simply grotesque. The consciousness of this extraordinary state of affairs would be unbearable but for one great consoling thought: it is a welcome symptom in an age which is commonly denounced as materialistic, that it makes heroes of men whose ambitions lie wholly in the intellectual and moral sphere. This proves that knowledge and justice are ranked above wealth and power by a large section of the human race. My experience teaches me that this idealistic outlook is particularly prevalent in America, which is usually decried as a particularly materialistic country. (RDF)

    L'origine psicologica del concetto di spazio, o della necessità di esso, è lungi dall'essere così ovvia come potrebbe apparire in base al nostro abituale modo di pensare. Gli antichi geometri trattano di oggetti mentali , ma non propriamente dello spazio in quanto tale, come più tardi è stato fatto dalla geometria analitica. Il concetto di spazio, tuttavia, è suggerito da certe esperienze primitive. Supponiamo che si sia costruita una scatola. Vi si possono disporre in un certo ordine degli oggetti, in modo che essa risulti piena. La possibilità di queste disposizioni è una proprietà dell'oggetto materiale "scatola", qualcosa che è dato con la scatola, lo "spazio racchiuso" dalla scatola. Questo è qualcosa di differente per le varie scatole, qualcosa che in modo del tutto naturale viene pensato come indipendente dal fatto che vi siano o no, in generale, degli oggetti nella scatola, Quando non vi sono oggetti nella scatola, il suo spazio appare "vuoto". Fin qui, il nostro concetto di spazio è stato associato alla scatola. Ci si accorge però che le possibilità di disposizione che formano lo spazio-scatola sono indipendenti dallo spessore delle pareti della scatola. Non sarebbe possibile ridurre a zero tale spessore, senza che si abbia per risultato la perdita dello "spazio"? La naturalezza di tale passaggio al limite è ovvia, e ora rimane al nostro pensiero lo spazio senza scatola, una cosa autonoma, che tuttavia appare così irreale se dimentichiamo l'origine di tale concetto. Si può capire che ripugnasse a Descartes il considerare lo spazio come indipendente da oggetti corporei, capace di esistere senza materia. (RDF)

    Quale varietà di stili nel tempio della scienza! E come diversi sono gli uomini che lo frequentano e diverse le forze morali che ve li hanno condotti! Più di uno si dedica alla scienza con la gioia di rendersi conto delle proprie superiori facoltà intellettuali: per lui la scienza è lo sport preferito che gli permette di vivere una vita intensa e di appagare le sue ambizioni. Ve ne sono anche molti i quali, unicamente allo scopo utilitario, vogliono portare la loro offerta alla effervescenza del cervello. Basterebbe che un angelo divino cacciasse dal tempio gli uomini di queste categorie e l'edificio rimarrebbe vuoto in modo inquietante, se non vi restassero alcuni uomini del presente e del passato: di questo numero fa parte il nostro ed è questa la ragione per cui lo amiamo.

    Our experience hitherto justifies us in trusting that nature is the realization of the simplest that is mathematically conceivable. I am convinced that purely mathematical construction enables us to find those concepts and those lawlike connections between them that provide the key to the understanding of natural phenomena. Useful mathematical concepts may well be suggested by experience, but in no way can they be derived from it. Experience naturally remains the sole criterion of the usefulness of a mathematical construction for physics. But the actual creative principle lies in mathematics. Thus, in a certain sense, I take it to be true that pure thought can grasp the real, as the ancients had dreamed. (RDF)

    Di fronte a tale dilemma pare che non vi sia modo di uscirne se non abbandonando o il principio di relatività o la semplice legge di propagazione della luce nel vuoto. Quanti fra i lettori hanno attentamente seguito la precedente discussione si attenderanno certamente che debba venir conservato il principio di relatività, il quale, per la sua semplicità e naturalezza, si raccomanda alla mente come pressoché irrefutabile, e che invece la legge di propagazione della luce nel vuoto debba venir sostituita da una legge più complicata che si conformi al principio di relatività. Lo sviluppo della fisica teorica ha dimostrato però che non possiamo seguire questa strada. (RDF)

Là, per la prima volta, è stato creato un sistema logico, meraviglia del pensiero, i cui enunciati si deducono così chiaramente gli uni dagli altri che ciascuna delle proposizioni dimostrate non solleva il minimo dubbio: si tratta della geometria di Euclide. Quest'opera ammirevole della ragione ha dato al cervello umano la più grande fiducia nei suoi sforzi ulteriori.

    The words or the language, as they are written or spoken, do not seem to play any role in my mechanism of thought. The psychical entities which seem to serve as elements in thoughts are certain signs and more or less clear images which can be "voluntarily" reproduced and combined. There is, of course, a certain connection between those elements and relevant logical concepts. It is also clear that the desire to arrive finally at logically connected concepts is the emotional basis of this rather vague play with the above-mentioned elements. . . . The above-mentioned elements are, in my case, of visual and some muscular type. Conventional words or other signs have to be sought for laboriously only in a secondary stage, when the mentioned associative play is sufficiently established and can be reproduced at will. (RDF)

    Il rifiuto di mettere al bando la bomba finché ne detiene il monopolio procura a questo paese un'altra conseguenza negativa, impedendogli di tornare pubblicamente ai parametri etici bellici formalmente accettati prima dell'ultima guerra. Non si dovrebbe dimenticare che questo paese ha approntato la bomba atomica come misura preventiva; se ne voleva impedire l'utilizzo da parte dei tedeschi, in caso l'avessero scoperta. Sono stati i tedeschi a iniziare il bombardamento dei centri civili, seguiti dai giapponesi. A ciò gli alleati hanno risposto negli stessi termini – anzi, come è risultato, con maggiore efficacia – e ne avevano la giustificazione morale. Ma adesso, in assenza di alcuna provocazione, e in mancanza della giustificazione della rappresaglia o della ritorsione, il rifiuto di rinunciare all'uso della bomba se non per ritorsione rendo lo scopo del suo possesso prettamente politico.

Perciò essa conduce di necessità alla guerra preventiva. L'insicurezza generale che ad essa si accompagna porta a sacrificare i diritti civili del cittadino al presunto bene dello stato. (RDF)

    Quali speranze e paure il metodo scientifico comporta per l'uomo? Non penso che questo sia il modo giusto di impostare la questione. Qualunque cosa questo strumento a disposizione dell'uomo produrrà, essa dipenderà interamente dalla natura dei fini che l'umanità si sarà data. Una volta posti in essere gli obiettivi, il metodo scientifico fornisce i mezzi per realizzarli. Tuttavia esso non può fornire anche gli obiettivi. Il metodo scientifico non avrebbe condotto da nessuna parte, di per sé, non sarebbe nemmeno nato senza un appassionato sforzo di arrivare a una comprensione chiara. (RDF)

    Physical concepts are free creations of the human mind, and are not, however it may seem, uniquely determined by the external world. In our endeavor to understand reality we are somewhat like a man trying to understand the mechanism of a closed watch. He sees the face and the moving hands, even hears its ticking, but he has no way of opening the case. If he is ingenious he may form some picture of a mechanism which could be responsible for all the things he observes, but he may never be quite sure his picture is the only one which could explain his observations. He will never be able to compare his picture with the real mechanism and he cannot even imagine the possibility or the meaning of such a comparison. But he certainly believes that, as his knowledge increases, his picture of reality will become simpler and simpler and will explain a wider and wider range of his sensuous impressions. He may also believe in the existence of the ideal limit of knowledge and that it is approached by the human mind. He may call this ideal limit the objective truth. (RDF)

Ele vê o mostrador e as mãos em movimento, ele ouve o tic-tac, mas ele não tem como abrir o gabinete. Se ele é engenhoso, ele poderá formar uma certa imagem do mecanismo, que servirá para responder por tudo o que ele pode observar, mas nunca pode ter certeza de que sua imagem é a única capaz de explicar suas observações. Ele nunca estará em condições de comparar sua imagem com o mecanismo real, e ele nem mesmo poderá representar a possibilidade ou a significação de tal comparação. Mas ele acredita certamente que, na medida em que seu conhecimento aumenta, sua imagem da realidade se tornará cada vez mais simples e explicará cada vez mais o domínio compreendido pelas impressões sensíveis.

    The physical world is real." That is supposed to be the fundamental hypothesis. What does "hypothesis" mean here? For me, a hypothesis is a statement, whose truth must be assumed for the moment, but whose meaning must be raised above all ambiguity. The above statement appears to me, however, to be, in itself, meaningless, as if one said: "The physical world is cock-a-doodle-do." It appears to me that the "real" is an intrinsically empty, meaningless category , whose monstrous importance lies only in the fact that I can do certain things in it and not certain others. (RDF)

    The most important human endeavor is the striving for morality in our actions. Our inner balance and even our very existence depend on it. Only morality in our actions can give beauty and dignity to life. To make this a living force and bring it to clear consciousness is perhaps the foremost task of education. The foundation of morality should not be made dependent on myth nor tied to any authority lest doubt about the myth or about the legitimacy of the authority imperil the foundation of sound judgment and action.

    About God, I cannot accept any concept based on the authority of the Church. As long as I can remember, I have resented mass indoctrination. I do not believe in the fear of life, in the fear of death, in blind faith. I cannot prove to you that there is no personal God, but if I were to speak of him, I would be a liar. I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil. My God created laws that take care of that. His universe is not ruled by wishful thinking, but by immutable laws. (RDF)

    Religion and science go together. As I've said before, science without religion is lame and religion without science is blind. They are interdependent and have a common goal—the search for truth. Hence it is absurd for religion to proscribe Galileo or Darwin or other scientists. And it is equally absurd when scientists say that there is no God. The real scientist has faith, which does not mean that he must subscribe to a creed. Without religion there is no charity. The soul given to each of us is moved by the same living spirit that moves the universe. (RDF)

    Being a lover of freedom, when the revolution came in Germany, I looked to the universities to defend it, knowing that they had always boasted of their devotion to the cause of truth; but, no, the universities immediately were silenced. Then I looked to the great editors of the newspapers whose flaming editorials in days gone by had proclaimed their love of freedom; but they, like the universities, were silenced in a few short weeks. Then I looked to individual writers who, as literary guides of Germany, had written much and often concerning the place of freedom in modern life; but they, too, were mute. Only the church stood squarely across the path of Hitler's campaign for suppressing truth. I never had any special interest in the church before, but now I feel a great affection and admiration because the church alone has had the courage and persistence to stand for intellectual truth and moral freedom. I am forced thus to confess that what I once despised I now praise unreservedly. (RDF)

    Quando la rivoluzione scoppiò in Germania, come amante della libertà, mi aspettavo che le università la difendessero, dato che avevano sempre vantato il loro attaccamento alla causa della verità. Ma no, le università vennero subito ridotte al silenzio. Poi rivolsi le mie attese ai grandi direttori dei giornali, che in passato avevano proclamato nei loro ardenti editoriali l'amore per la libertà. Ma anch'essi, come le università, nel giro di poche settimane furono ridotti al silenzio. Infine guardai agli scrittori che, come guide intellettuali della Germania, spesso avevano scritto del ruolo della libertà nella vita moderna e constatai che essi pure tacevano. Soltanto la Chiesa si oppose decisamente alla campagna di Hitler per sopprimere la verità. Non mi ero mai interessato alla Chiesa prima di allora, ma adesso provo ammirazione e stima per la Chiesa, poiché sola ebbe il coraggio e la perseveranza di difendere la verità intellettuale e la libertà morale. Sono costretto ad ammettere che quel che una volta disprezzavo ora ammiro incondizionatamente. (RDF)

Potem sem računal na velike izdajatelje časnikov, katerih ognjeviti uvodniki so svoj čas razglašali ljubezen do svobode. Vendar so bili, podobno kot univerze, v nekaj kratkih tednih utišani. Edino Cerkev se je neposredno upirala Hitlerjevi kampanji za utišanje resnice. Poprej me ni Cerkev nikoli posebej zanimala, zdaj pa občutim veliko naklonjenost in občudovanje, ker se je edino Cerkev pogumno in vztrajno zavzela za intelektualno resnico in nravstveno svobodo.
