Yeah, I am a guy working on physics outside of academia. But I'm nowhere near Einstein's caliber. Votes: 1
Since Einstein developed his theory of relativity, and Rutherford and Bohr revolutionised physics, our picture of the world has radically changed. Votes: 1
I had a difficult time getting my arms around Einstein's work, even when I was a physics major at one of the top universities in India. Votes: 1
Louis Armstrong is quite simply the most important person in American music. He is to 20th century music (I did not say jazz) what Einstein is to physics. Votes: 1
Einstein's gravitational theory, which is said to be the greatest single achievement of theoretical physics, resulted in beautiful relations connecting gravitational phenomena with the geometry of space; this was an exciting idea. Votes: 1
One of the most exciting things about dark energy is that it seems to live at the very nexus of two of our most successful theories of physics: quantum mechanics, which explains the physics of the small, and Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, which explains the physics of the large, including gravity.

Einstein...even failed physics once, but he'd never thought of giving up school to make a living. Votes: 0
Student: Dr. Einstein, Aren't these the same questions as last year's [physics] final exam? Dr. Einstein: Yes; But this year the answers are different. Votes: 0
