Growing up just outside of Princeton,N.J.,my grandmother would often take me to Princeton .Being a small child i would ask her who was the funny looking man with the long hair,and holes in his sweater .He was always walking the streets of Princeton.She would just say that's Albert Einstein,he teaches at the university where your grandfather graduated.When Einstein went to the hospital with an aneurysm,he refused surgery.Saying"I want to go when i want.It's tasteless to prolong life artificially.I have done my share,it is time to go.I will do it elegantly."He died the next day.My favorite quote of his was."The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has it's limits."
