愛因斯坦確實說了這6句話
Albert Einstein was a man of many words. The theoretical physicist — who is often considered the epitome of genius — is quoted by professors and philosophers, celebrities and calendars.
阿爾伯特·愛因斯坦是個多言多語的人,這位理論物理學家經(jīng)常被認為是天才的縮影,教授和哲學家、名人和日歷都經(jīng)常引用他的話。
But interestingly, many of the quotes aren't things he actually said. You can find hundreds of misattributed Einstein quotes on the internet alone.
但有趣的是,許多引語并不真的是他說的,僅在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上就可以找到數(shù)百條錯誤的愛因斯坦名言。
So, what did Einstein say? Here are 6 quotes the famed scientist actually uttered or penned.
所以,愛因斯坦到底說過什么?以下是這位著名科學家的6句名言。
1."The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day."
重要的是不要停止質(zhì)疑,好奇心有它存在的理由。當一個人思考永恒、生命和現(xiàn)實的奇妙結(jié)構(gòu)的奧秘時,他不能不感到敬畏。只要每天設(shè)法了解一點這個秘密,就夠了。
2."My interest in science was always essentially limited to the study of principles.... That I have published so little is due to this same circumstance, as the great need to grasp principles has caused me to spend most of my time on fruitless pursuits."
我對科學的興趣基本上總是局限于對原理的研究……我發(fā)表的文章如此之少,也是因為同樣的情況,因為我迫切需要掌握原則,所以我把大部分時間都花在了沒有結(jié)果的追求上。
3."One thing I have learned in a long life: that all our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike — and yet it is the most precious thing we have."
在漫長的一生中,我學到了一件事:我們所有的科學,以現(xiàn)實來衡量,都是原始的、幼稚的——但它是我們擁有的最珍貴的東西。
4."Reading after a certain age diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking, just as the man who spends too much time in the theater is tempted to be content with living vicariously instead of living his own life."
到了一定年齡后,閱讀會使人的思維偏離創(chuàng)造性的追求。讀書太多而用腦太少的人會養(yǎng)成懶惰的思維習慣,就像花太多時間在劇院里的人會被誘惑去滿足于代替他人的生活,而不是過自己的生活。
5."The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science."
我們能經(jīng)歷的最美好的事情就是神秘。它是所有真正藝術(shù)和科學的源泉。
6."I never think of the future. It comes soon enough."
我從不去想未來,因為它已經(jīng)來的夠快了。
