Einstein's memorable sayings part 2

Today, the server that crashed last week has been updated and is back. At the same time,
The data I was hoping for was taken out by a computer technician who spent 50 hours to extract it, so it was about 8 people x 3 days worth of data.
All data (backups were not working for the last three days due to a hard disk malfunction) was also cleaned.
I'm back.
Although this was an unexpected incident, we were able to keep the damage to a minimum.
Today, continuing from yesterday, I would like to introduce some good quotes from another book.
This will be a good memo for you.
-The only thing that gives meaning to life is work.
No matter how hard you work and how much wealth you accumulate, it will not help advance humanity.
Moses, Jesus and Ghandi had a lot of money and bought all sorts of things.
Can you imagine what it looks like?
Instead of trying to become a successful person, you should try to become a person of value.
-Things of true value come not from ambition or a sense of duty but from human love and devotion.
- Beliefs that are not based on knowledge are merely superstitions and should therefore be eliminated.
-At a certain high level, science and art tend to merge aesthetically and formally.
Thus, the best scientists are always artists as well.
-Young people should not be taught to make conventional success their primary goal in life.
The most important motivation for study and work is the joy of learning and working itself,
The expectation must be that this will result in contributions to society.
The most important task of educators is to encourage young people to have this awareness.
In my opinion, killing someone in war is the same as killing someone under normal circumstances.
Nothing has changed.
・Japan was amazing. People live in a picturesque country.
Elegant manners, artistic sensibility, sincerity, good sense. He was the best in every respect. (When he visited Japan in 1922)
I think that in 1922, Japanese people still had a strong sense of bushido and virtue.
If Einstein could see Japan today, would he have the same impression?
That's something that bothered me a bit.
