Einstein’s 20 Most Famous Quotes — Which Ones He Said Versus Which Ones He Didn’t
When Einstein said his most famous quotes, and which ones he never said
The Internet is awash with Albert Einstein quotes, some of them are profound in nature, some of them are incredibly witty, and some are just downright hilarious.
However, not all of them are legit.
Here is a collection of Einstein’s most famous quotes, detailing which ones are legit versus which ones are not.
“You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.”
It would be cool if Einstein had said this. However, there is no evidence he did, and considering versions of the quote can be dated back to the mid-1800s, so before Einstein was even born, it’s most likely he didn’t.
