This is one of the anecdotes that i came across when i was surfing. It is regarding the great man Einstein. I thought it was really good, So thought of putting it on the blog, so here goes.
Once Einstein who is now a very old man is sitting on a park bench in his native Princeton. Suddenly a young man appears on the scene and soon him and Einstein hit-off with a conversation and eventually they arrive at their respective introductions. The young man takes the lead and introduces himself as a Professor of physics in blah blah university and is doing a research in blah blah area of physics and so goes on and on for 5-10 minutes. When Einstein's turn to introduce himself arrives he utters the following words - "Hi i am Albert Einstein and I'm a student of physics".
A truly astonishing reply full of humility isn't it.Thus are the ways of great men i guess for humility to them is not a virtue but a way of life.This kind of humility is quite rare around us nowadays as each person it seems is going out of his way to impress himself upon others just like the young man. This anecdote teaches us an important lesson that you can never become too big to stay humble. Enough of preaching for today, untill next time Caio :)
