Yesterday I read this from Albert Einstein - many of you may know it, but it was new to me, and I like it:

 

"The universe and the human stupidity are both infinite.

Though - I'm not yet totally sure about the universe there."

Albert was great.  One of my favs is his explanation of relativity: “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.”

 

Even I can understand that.  :smile:

Never forget my favorite from Mr.E...

 

"I don't know what kind of weapons will be used in the third world war, but I can tell you what the fourth world war will be fought with -- sticks and stones..."

Hey, I got that!

No one ever bothered to explain it to me that simple!

 

Florian, that's a good one too - but not really funny IMHO.

It has a strong ring of truth, though.

Not Einstein, but Lucy van Pelt once said to her brother, Linus, "The quality of your stupidity is rising." I always liked that one. Used it a time or two myself.

Sadly and unfortunately, that is very true.... :iagree:
