"It's
not that I am more gifted than anybody else, I'm just more curious than
the average person, and I don't give up on a problem until I've found
the proper solution. Solving problems is one of my greatest satisfactions
in life -- and the harder they are, the more satisfaction I get from them."
--Albert Einstein
Technically Stupid?
In 1898, young Albert Einstein applied for admission to the Munich Technical Institute - and was turned down. The reason? The young man, the institute declared, "showed no promise" as a student.
By 1905, he had formulated his special theory of relativity.
