Albert Einstein

1879–1955

Physicist who wrote to Max Born

He does not throw dice is a letter, December 4, 1926, about quantum mechanics, and it is a disagreement with Bohr’s camp, not a proverb about God. The insanity definition is not his. Imagination over knowledge is an interview, and he qualifies it in the next sentence.
