Einstein Meme's

His intellectual achievements and originality have made the word Einstein broadly synonymous with genius. Albert Einstein’s brother was a monster, his name, FrankEinstein. Einstein was asked to appear alongside the comic actor Charlie Chaplin during the Hollywood debut of the film City Lights. When they were mobbed by thousands. Charlie Chaplin: “The people applaud me because everybody understands me, and they applaud you because no one understands you.” Einstein asked Chaplin: “What does it all mean?” Chaplin replied:“Nothing.” Einstein also began correspondence with other influential thinkers. He corresponded with Sigmund Freud (both had sons with mental problems) on whether war was intrinsic to humanity. He discussed with the Indian mystic Rabindranath Tagore the question of whether consciousness can affect existence. It was interesting to see them together—Tagore, the poet with the head of a thinker, and Einstein, the thinker with the head of a poet, as though ‘two planets’ were engaged in a chat. Einstein: “Does consciousness affect existence?” Rabindranath Tagore: “It can be said that it depends on the level of our inner consciousness Einstein: “How does our inner consciousness affect our creation?” Rabindranath Tagore: “Deepness of consciousness creates and expresses through devout belief. Are you devout in your beliefs?” Einstein: “Relatively speaking” Tagore: “What is your view on ignorance and apathy?” Einstein: “I don’t know, and I don’t care” Tagore: “I’m mindful of that, my friend” And so they laugh and stroll off together into the great expanse, soul buddies in eternity! Einstein on religious views; he believed there was an “old one” the ultimate lawgiver. He did not believe in a personal God that intervened in human affairs, he believed in the God of the ‘17th-century’ Dutch Jewish philosopher Benedict de Spinoza—the God of harmony and beauty. His task was to formulate a master theory that would allow him to “read the mind of God.” I’m not an atheist and I don’t think I can call myself a pantheist. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many different languages.…The child dimly suspects a mysterious order in the arrangement of the books but doesn’t know what it is. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of even the most intelligent human being toward God. —Albert Einstein
