    “By an application of the theory of relativity to the taste of readers, to-day in Germany I am called a German man of science, and in England I am represented as a Swiss Jew. If I come to be regarded as a bĂȘte noire the descriptions will be reversed, and I shall become a Swiss Jew for the Germans and a German man of science for the English!”
    —Albert Einstein (1879–1955)

    “I know the ice in your drink is senile.
    I know your smile will develop a boil.
    You know only that you are on top,
    swinging like children on the money swing....”
