Albert Einstein…Did You Know…

blurppy — Thu, 23 May 2013 10:33:02 +0000

We all know Einstein as the man who came up with E=MC2 and many other brilliant theories. We has been lauded by many as one of the greatest minds ever to walk the earth but did you know…

… he was unable to talk until he was four years old?

… he had a very bad memory and could not remember dates and phone numbers, even his own?

…In 1952 he was offered the presidency of Israel, but he politely declined the offer

…Albert Einstein is an anagram of ‘Ten elite brains’

…At age 17, he failed an early admission test for a university

…He loved to play violin and go sailing

…His second wife was his cousin

…He hated haircuts and socks

…He had an illegitimate daughter

…Hitler considered Einstein public enemy number one

…He used to charge people for his autographed and donate all this money to charity.

…A compass given to him by his father at the age of 5 inspired his interest in science

…After Einstein’s death, his brain was removed from his head without bringing in his family’s knowledge. This immoral act was done by Dr. Thomas Harvey who wanted to conduct a search on his brain

…He once said, “Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour and it seems like a minute. That’s relativity.”
