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

Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them.

It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.

No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.

One should never impose one’s views on a problem; one should rather study it, and in time a solution will reveal itself.

The formulation of the problem is often more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skill.

The intellect has little to do on the road to discovery. There comes a leap in consciousness, call it Intuition or what you will, the solution comes to you and you don’t know how or why.

The mere formulation of a problem is far more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skills. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle requires creative imagination and marks real advances in science.

The release of atomic power has changed everything except our way of thinking … the solution to this problem lies in the heart of mankind. If only I had known, I should have become a watchmaker. (1945)

We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.

When the solution is simple, God is answering.
