Einstein Quotes
More of Albert Einstein's best quotes with the only correct interpretation:
- If you can't explain it to a six-year-old, you don't understand it yourself.
Six-year-old people are the benchmark for intelligence. If they can't figure out a valid solution to a problem, you're lost. This is probably what he meant with this sentence. - Never memorize something that you can look up.
If you memorize things for a long time, you get way too similar to elephants. Elephants have huge trunks, which is good for the elephant. But big trunks are no good thing for men. So better look up many things. - A clever person solves a problem. A wise person avoids it.
This means that wise people have the ability to make problems disappear, which also makes them similar to rich people. - Try not to become a man of success. Rather become a man of value.
This quote is wrong because it implies that success and value are two different things, while they are not. - I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.
If you read Einstein’s papers you will notice his insane amount of cool skills. For example, time bending. It allowed him to define “soon” very soon. - What a sad era when it is easier to smash an atom than a prejudice.
Comparing the hardness of atoms with prejudices is really amazing, because no one ever will be able to physically un-prove this statement. What a genius move. (Which is by the way the secret of every great scientist) - The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.
This is related to the human brain.
