The Great Mind

            Before God we are all equally wise - and equally foolish. This quote by Albert Einstein was said to show his disgust for the war. He tells how he knows that all humans are intelligent and growing but how stupid they can become with a thing like war. Einstein was a genius but that was not all that he had. He was strong and always fought with what he believed in, he was a true leader.
             As we know all leaders have a great sense of vision and this stays true with Einstein. His visions were huge and impacted science, for example his theory of relatively shook the science world. Almost all of Einstein life people thought he was mentally retarded until one day his teacher walked up to him in intermediate school and noticed Einstein doing college level work. This was said to be Einstein's vision, math and science. He also had a vision for peace which he pursued almost his life and obviously didn't achieve having lived through WWII. However his ability to stay strong no matter who fought with him proved to be one of his greatest abilities.
             Einstein although being extremely shy was never afraid to act he led the whole country in the ability to be pacifist. However he was never afraid to take charge and be aware of when violence was necessary. He pushed the US and all of Europe to start readying the defenses and be ready for an attack. They did and eventually won the war. He also always acted in proving his experiments and was smart enough to sometimes get other people to do it for him. Such as the theory of relatively for proved by a college in England by putting a clock in a train and have the train go very fast for a long period of time and see if any slowdown occurred.
             Leaders always avoid conflict and so did Einstein. He was a huge pacifist as mentioned early at led the front in anti war protests and was a huge political activist in avoiding confrontation. .
             As you can see Einstein possessed many leader and attributes and can be considered one of the greatest minds of all time.
