I love learning new things (as well as teaching them), and great quotes provide just something new to ponder - Especially ones that are not only true, but if they are scientific in nature (as science, art and photography are related) and if it applies to many fields of study (or life) and it has a bit of humor - That's even better!
Many who have followed the life of Albert Einstein know that, not only was he a genius - He also had a great sense of humor.
As you're struggling thru your latest photography challenge, ponder some of his thoughts, maybe it'll make it easier for you to get thru - Or, at least provide a nice smile.
"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tired anything new."
"Imagination is more important than knowledge."
"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing."
"Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater."
"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one."
"If "A" equal a success in life; Then, "A equals "X" plus "Y" plus "Z". Work is "X"; "Y" is Play and "Z" is keeping your mouth shut!"
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed."
"You see, wire telegraph is kind of like a very, very long cat - You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand? And radio operates exactly the same way: You send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."
And last but not least, a sign hanging in Einstein's office at Princeton: "Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts."
