I've Got It!!!

"A new idea comes suddenly and in a rather intuitive way, "Einstein once said.  "But," he hastened to add, "intuition is nothing but the outcome of earlier intellectual experience."

Pardon the interuption Albert, but this conversation piece is important:

The president and CFO of a company had the following discussion:

CFO:  If we invest and continuously train the employees our cost will go up.  In addition, what happens if the employees we train, decide to leave?

President:  What happens if we don't train anyone and they all STAY?

A mind of a scientist

Einstein 2.0s

"The thought of having to expend my creative energy on things that make practical everyday life even more refined, with a bleak capital gain as the goal was unbearable to me." 

"Well, if you offer gourmet food to peasants like me (given caviar for his birthday), you know they won't appreciate it."

Einstein 2.0c

Did Einstein have ADHD?

"He was known to leave behind clothes, and sometimes even his suitcase, when he traveled, and his inability to remember his keys became a running joke with his landlady."

"He always does something different from what I have ordered."

"Professor Pernet gave Einstein a 1, the lowest possible grade in his course Physical Experiments for Beginners" because he never showed up for class.

Those and many other examples of his absentmindedness, led someone to famously quote:  "That man [Einstein] will never amount to anything because he can't remember anything."

Stop being a Fool, according to Einstein

"A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth."
