Berikut kata dan gagasan Albert Eintein yang membuat saya merenung.
“All of science is nothing more than the refinement of everyday thinking.”
“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving.”
“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.”
“Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.”
“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be very intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”
