For me there is a lot to discuss about Albert Einstein. I admire the fact that he was a pacifist.

Quote:
"My pacifism is an instinctive feeling, a feeling that possesses me because the murder of men is abhorrent. My attitude is not derived from intellectual theory but is based on my deepest antipathy to every kind of cruelty and hatred." - Albert Einstein
Quote:
"Science is a powerful instrument. How it is used, whether it is a blessing or a curse to mankind, depends on mankind and not on the instrument. A knife is useful, but it can also kill." - Albert Einstein
Quote:
"I have always condemned the use of the atomic bomb against Japan but I could not do anything at all to prevent that fateful decision," - Einstein's pacifist dilemma revealed
