Because some things that seem unimportant now can change the course of human history -- and I am a student of human history.

About This Quote

Albert Einstein said, “Because some things that seem unimportant now can change the course of human history — and I am a student of human history.” This means that we should not always think about what may seem to be the most important things in life at the moment. We should remind ourselves that even the smallest and seemingly unimportant events can have an impact on the future.
