Wisdom of Einstein

Knowledge: The search for truth and knowledge is one of the finest attributes of a man, though often it is most loudly voiced by those who strive for it the least.
Authority: To punish me for my contempt of authority, fate has made me an authority myself.
Truth: It is difficult to say what truth is, but sometimes it is easy to recognize a falsehood.
Cooperation: A hundred times a day I remind myself that my inner and out lives are based on the labors of other people, living and dead, and that I must exert myself in order to give in the same measue as I have received and am still receiving.
Wisdom: Wisdom is not a product of schooling, but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.
Greatness: There is only one road to human greatness through the school of hard knocks.
Happiness: A happy man is too satisfied with the present to dwell too much on the future.
Fame: With fame I become more and more stupid, which of course is a very common phenomenon.
Life: Life is sacred, that is to say, it is the supreme value, to which all other values are subordinate.
Ageing: I have reached an age when, if someone tells me to wear socks, I don't have to.
Praise: The only way to escape the personal corruption of praise is to go on working.
Problems: Fear or stupidity has always been the basis of most human actions.
Relativity: An hour of sitting with a pretty girl on a park bench passes like a minute, but a minute sitting of a hot stove seems like an hour.
Goals: One should not pursue goals that are easily achieved. One must develop an instinct for what one can barely achieve through one's greatest efforts.
Racism: The only remedies against race and prejudice are enlightenment and education. This is a slow and painstaking process.
Solitude: I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.
Value: Try not to become a man of success but rather try to become a man of value.
Imagination: When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come close to the conclusion that the gift of imagination has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing absolute knowledge.

”Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it.”

Albert Einstein- Joyfully

"He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice. This disgrace to civilisation should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, senseless brutality, deplorable love-of-country stance, how violently I hate all this, how dispicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action! It is my convictin that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder."

Albert Einstein: “There is only one road to true human greatness: through the school of hard knocks.”

Einstein is such a familiar image that even a suggestion of his likeness imparts the aura of wisdom. Here is a poster for school cafeterias - grains, fruit, vegetables, yummmm. Maybe the formula is Eating=Munching Cute2??

Take a look at Giuseppe Arcimboldo portraits of the Four Seasons- the faces of the seasons are composed of fruits, vegetables, and other edibles representative of the season.
