Biography
Albert Einstein was a German-born theoretical physicist who developed the theory of relativity, one of the two pillars of modern physics. His mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc2 has been dubbed the world's most famous equation. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect. Beyond physics, he was a passionate humanitarian, civil rights advocate, and philosopher who fled Nazi Germany and spent his later years advocating for peace.
Philosophy
Imagination is more important than knowledge. The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence. Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.
