Yes, the man I will be quoting today will be one of the best scientists of all time, none other than Albert Einstein. Believe it or not, Einstein was not even born in America, he was German. Born on March 14th, 1879 in Wurttemberg, Germany. Roughly about a month later his family moved to Munich. His education for the first 20 years of his life was pretty hectic. He started his education in Munich, later moving to Italy to further his education, and when he was a mere 17 years old, he moved to Switzerland to start his education to become a physics and mathematics teacher. He got his diploma in 1901 and could not find a teaching job so became a technical assistant, later in 1905 he obtained his doctor's degree. Later, Einstein moved back to Berlin to become a professor at the University of Berlin. In 1933, he renounced his citizenship to Germany and emmigrated to America where he became a physics professor at the University of Princeton. He obtained his citizenship in 1940 and retired in 1945. During his time in Berlin he had come up with several theories, like the Theory of Relativity, Theory of Radiation, and Theory of Statistical Mechanics. In Einstein's life he was married twice, the first person he married, he had two children with, then in 1919 they divorced and Einstein married his cousin. She died in 1936, and Einstein later died on April 18th, 1955 at Princeton in New Jersey.
The quote for Einstein is, "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." Of course, this is something that would come from Albert Einstein. He changed the way people think of Physics. In order for him to even come up with new theories, and disprove some of the older theories, he had to have a new mind set, and think of new ways to find out the real answers that are out there. Maybe you could take this quote into consideration, because everyone out there has the opportunity to be something great. You just have to work at it.
Thw word for this post is, Nemesis meaning: A powerful rival.
