This man was so famous all over the world that it is not surprising that his image and biography eventually acquired all sorts of myths. For example, there is information that he was quite an average student at school. But then he became a great scientist, wrote more than 300 scientific papers and changed the idea of physics!
It is all the more surprising that he was awarded only one Nobel Prize in his entire life, despite being nominated almost every year throughout the decade.
Well, do you have any ideas?
No? So let’s move on! This great man not only reformed science, but also the idea of what a scientist could be. He had no sense of humor at all! Check out these funny quotes from our hero:
“I have no special talent. I’m just curious”
“I never think about the future. It will come soon enough.”
“There are only two infinite things: space and stupidity. Although I’m not sure about the universe.’
Well, his most famous portrait was the one with his tongue sticking out – you have to admit that’s not typical of a serious jewel scientist!
Now you know exactly who he is, right? Of course, Albert Einstein!
