About This Quote
In this quote, Albert Einstein was saying that it is unfair to expect other people to have as much intelligence as oneself. In the world today, we have people who believe that if they do a good job, then other people should be brilliant. This is not fair because it does not take into account that maybe others do not have the same intelligence as one. Even though Albert Einstein was a person of high intelligence, he believed that others may not be as smart as he was.
