Anecdotes of some personalities
1. At a social gathering Marilyn Monroe crossed with Albert Einstein, she suggested: “What teacher says we should get married and have a child together. Is there a drink you imagine my beauty and your intelligence? " . Einstein replied very seriously:

After several days of travel, Einstein told the driver how boring it was to repeat the same thing over and over again.
" If you want, 'said the driver- I can substitute for one night. I heard your lecture so many times that I can recite word for word. "
Einstein agreed and before reaching the next place, Einstein exchanged clothes and took the wheel.
He came to the room where it was to hold the conference and as none of these scholars knew Einstein, farce is not found:
The driver explained that the conference had heard repeated many times to Einstein.
In the end, a teacher in the audience asked him a question. The driver had no idea what could be the answer, however had a spark of inspiration and I replied:
" The question that is so simple that I will let my chauffeur, who is at the end of the hall, answer."
