Albert Einstein
Image
Galileo had already made a significant beginning toward a knowledge of the law of motion. He discovered the law of inertia and the law of bodies falling freely in the gravitational field of the earth.
Albert Einstein
Image
It is an outcome of faith that nature-as she is perceptible to our five senses-takes the character of such a well formulated puzzle.
