Albert Einstein
Mathematics are well and good but Nature keeps dragging us around by the nose.
Albert Einstein

Albert Einstein
You imagine that I look back on my life's work with calm satisfaction. But from nearby it looks quite different. There is not a single concept of which I am convinced that it will stand firm, and I feel uncertain whether I am in general on the right track.
Albert Einstein
The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.
Albert Einstein
