Although most known for his scientific achievement, Albert Einstein’s popularity with the commoner lies in his non scientific legacy. We look at 10 famous funny quotes of Einstein.

In Toronto during the 1970’s, I found the following tale, entitled “Einstein’s Joke”, in a newly founded magazine:
Two men, one leading his horse, are walking along a country road. They notice a large frog resting in the water-filled ditch beside the road. The man with the horse says: “If you can eat that entire frog, I will give you my horse.” His friend responds by catching the frog and devouring it in several bites.
Further along the road, they spot a second frog and the now horse-owner makes the same offer to his friend. That frog is also quickly swallowed and the horse is exchanged again.
Later, after a period of musing, one opines: “Nothing has changed, has it?
It seems to me that this story, assuming it originated from Einstein, reflects his profound sense of humour.
this is so interesting
