“I want everybody to be smart. As smart as they can be. A world of ignorant people is too dangerous to live in.”

“Professor Einstein took his wife’s hand in his and replied, “Well, when we were first married fifty years ago—Gott im Himmel!—fifty years—we made a pact. It was this. That in our life together, I would make all the big decisions and she would make all the little decisions. And we have kept to it for fifty years. That, I think, is the reason for the success of our marriage.” Then, he looked up and added, “The strange thing is that in fifty years, there hasn’t yet been one big decision.”
― Garson Karin, Hollywood
