Good Morning Joanna - that's another great photo. Albert Einstein was  a gift to people all over the globe! I look at those buildings and think of the factory workers during WWII who made America great. Theirs was a labor of love and they paid the price in sweat shops, minimal wages, etc. Yet it was also the time when love flourished and subsequently Baby Boomers were born!

Love is the answer to all problems! Einstein earned the title of Genius!

That wisdom has been around for a long time ... long before Einstein. If only we humans would truly embrace it and live it.

JC~I love this man. Do you remember a little known film where Einstein and Marilyn Monroe are together? For the life of me, I can't recall the name...it was YEARS ago. It was fiction, they were actors, but so very interesting. 

Two other films come to mind--A Beautiful Mind and The Theory of Everything....both we have and have watched in our theatre. Both based on true stories. 

Love you, too!!

OK, so I have a question for you that I have asked people over the years: 

if you could invite 3 people to dinner, who would they be and why?

My current ones: Thoreau, Lincoln and Marilyn Monroe. I don't have to explain, Thoreau, you know...I have loved and admired Lincoln for so many reasons and he was a great storyteller and Marilyn has had my heart for eons...her openness, her naivete, her innate talent and I would want to know what really happened....

Joanna,

I have loved so many Einstein quotes, and like Michael Jacobs said this message needs to be sent everywhere!  I love the photo, and this is one my fave quotes of Einstein, "The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination."  Happy Wednesday, A

Good evening Sharon Tara , John McCormack and Raymond E. Camp .  If only manking could find it in their hearts to love instead of hate, what a world we might have!

Dear Debbie Reynolds and Michael Jacobs - there is no question that we would have a better world but truly, sending it to our Congress? I don't know if they are smart enough to know who Einstein was - but great idea Michael!

You are so right Patricia Feager, MBA, GRI, Cert Negotiations Expert, Military Relo Prof - those buildings were former factories - perhaps not for munitions but they employed lots of people in other industries.

Kathleen Daniels , there is no question that this wisdom was around long before Einstein - it's really about the irony of Einstein who in fact was a peacenik!

Ooh Gayle Rich-Boxman Fishhawk Lake Realtor (503)755-2905 - THAT is a hard one.  I think I would definitely want to invite William Shakespeare, Abraham Lincoln and perhaps Pablo Picasso - it is hard to leave out Mozart and Marilyn and Einstein so I would have to have two dinners.  I would also invite you!!! xox

Hi Ron and Alexandra Seigel I love that quote by Einstein as well and there is no question that Michael Jacobs has the right idea - unfortunately, it would fall on deaf ears.  And yes Hannah Williams - looking forward to our meeting and I will call you when we check into our hotel!

Good morning Joanna.  Isn't it interesting how just one word can speak volumes with nothing else being said...
