Happy 137th Birthday: Albert Einstein

“The ideals which have lighted my way, and time after time have given me new courage to face life cheerfully, have been Kindness, Beauty, and Truth.”  -Albert Einstein, physicist, Nobel laureate (14 Mar 1879-1955)

Sure, Einstein will always be most remembered for his place in the pantheon of our most important scientists, but he also was arguably the most quotable person who ever walked the Earth. Most remarkably, virtually all these thoughts express a profound humanism and a set of instructions for how we can build a better world.  He left us with a contribution of unimaginable proportion.
