Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
Assumptions are made and most assumptions are wrong.
Albert Einstein
I am strongly drawn to the simple life and am often oppressed by the feeling that I am engrossing an unnecessary amount of the labour of my fellow men. I regard class differences as contrary to justice and, in the last resort, based on force. I also consider that plain living is good for everybody, physically and mentally.
Albert Einstein
