All ALBERT EINSTEIN Quotes about “Experience”

“The truth of a theory can never be proven, for one never knows if future experience will contradict its conclusions.”
“The only source of knowledge is experience.”
“Mathematics deals exclusively with the relations of concepts to each other without consideration of their relation to experience.”
“The only justification for our concepts and systems of concepts is that they serve to represent the complex of our experiences; beyond this they have not legitimacy.”
“Experience alone can decide on truth.”
“The physicist's greatest tool is his wastebasket.”
“It was the experience of mystery - even if mixed with fear - that engendered religion.”
“The theoretical idea ... does not arise apart from and independent of experience; nor can it be derived from experience by a purely logical procedure. It is produced by a creative act. Once a theoretical idea has been acquired, one does well to hold fast to it until it leads to an untenable conclusion.”
“Conceptions without experience are void; experience without conceptions is blind.”
“All our thoughts and concepts are called up by sense-experiences and have a meaning only in reference to these sense-experiences. On the other hand, however, they are products of the spontaneous activity of our minds; they are thus in no wise logical consequences of the contents of these sense-experiences. If, therefore, we wish to grasp the essence of a complex of abstract notions we must for the one part investigate the mutual relationships between the concepts and the assertions made about them; for the other, we must investigate how they are related to the experiences.”
