"The highest principles for our aspirations and judgments are given to us in the Jewish-Christian religious tradition. It is a very high goal which, with our weak powers, we can reach only very inadequately, but which gives a sure foundation to our aspirations and valuations. If one were to take that goal out of its religious form and look merely at its purely human side, one might state it perhaps thus: free and responsible development of the individual, so that he may place his powers freely and gladly in the service of all mankind. … it is only to the individual that a soul is given. And the high destiny of the individual is to serve rather than to rule, or to impose himself in any other way."
In 1929, Einstein was asked in a telegram by Rabbi Herbert S. Goldstein whether he believed in G-d. Einstein responded by telegram "I believe in Spinoza's G-d who reveals himself in the orderly harmony of what exists, not in a G-d who concerns himself with the fates and actions of human beings."
"Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts."
Albert Einstein
