About This Quote

Albert Einstein said: "The greatest gift you can leave to humanity is the beautiful trace you left behind yourself that invites people to reason, science and peace!” The scientist was referring to the way we leave our mark on this world and how we affect others. He believed that we should not be afraid to leave a positive legacy for everyone else. He also talked about the ability of great minds to change their world, which is part of what makes them great people. How they influence others is what makes them important.
