Albert Einstein quotes and sayings are witty, insightful and often inspirational.

Today’s quotes of the day are from Albert Einstein (1879-1955), who is regarded as the father of modern physics and as one of the world’s greatest thinkers, even more than 50 years after his death.

Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, located in Württemberg, Germany. Einstein was a Nobel Prize-winning theoretical physicist who became famous for his theories of special and general relativity. Despite a speech impediment early in life, Einstein is credited with an array of insightful and witty quotes and sayings. Einstein quotations are often about life in general, or on topics like Zionism or Socialism. In fact, in addition to publishing books about physics, Einstein also published works expressing left-wing political views on Socialism and Zionism. As a result, many Einstein quotes and sayings have a distinctly political flavor.

Einstein is also known for his crazy hair, but what many may not know is that he married a woman named Elsa Lowenthal who was his first cousin on his maternal side and his second cousin on his paternal side!
