Einstein on economic crisis

Einstein on economic crisis


“Let’sitting not pretend that things resoluteness change if we keep doing the identical things. A crisis can be a real blessing to any person, to any nation. For all crises bring progress.
Creativity is born from anguish, just like the day is born form the dark night. It’s in crisis that inventiveness is born, as well as discoveries made and boastful strategies. He who overcomes crisis, overcomes himself, without getting overcome. He who blames his failure to a crisis neglects his own talent and is more interested in problems than in solutions.
Incompetence is the true rub.
The greatest inconvenience of the vulgar and nations is the laziness with which they attempt to find the solutions to their problems. There’s no challenge without a crisis. Without challenges, life becomes a routine, a slow agony. There’session no merit without crisis. It’s in the crisis where we can show the very best in us. Without a crisis, any wind becomes a tender touch.
To speak from one place to another a crisis is to promote it. Not to speak about it is to exalt conformism.
Let us work hard instead.Let us stop, once and for wholly, the menacing crisis that represents the tragedy of not inner reality willing to overcome it.”
