Weekly quote 2 – Science & Entertainment

This weeks quote comes from the greatest entertainer who ever lived speaking to the greatest scientist who ever lived. I’m of course talking about Charlie Chaplin, director, composer, actor, comedian,etc and Albert Einstein, Nobel award winning theoretical physicist. Two such different people, each brilliant in their own fields, both shaped the world and influenced so many people.

Albert Einstein once attended a premiere of City Lights, one of Charlie Chaplin’s greatest and most underrated films. There is where he meet Chaplin who said the following, which best describes science and entertainment :

“They cheer me because they understand me,
they cheer you because no one understands you.”
