About This Quote

Albert Einstein is a famous scientist and also has a quotation. Albert Einstein said, “NAUGHTY AND NICE? BUT IT'S EASY TO BE NICE IF YOU'RE RICH. IS THIS FAIR?” He was advocating that you do not need to be rich to be nice and that you can also be nice even if you are poor. He was providing a counter argument to the idea that being rich is the only way to be nice and that it is unfair if some people are rich and some people are poor and those who are poor by nature are bad.
