There is a story about how Albert
Einstein was traveling to
universities, giving lectures on his
famous theory of relativity.
One day while on their way to a
university, The driver said:" Dr.
Einstein,
I've heard that lecture more than 30
times. I have learned it by heart and
bet I could give it myself."
"Well, I'll give you the
chance," said Einstein, "They don't
know me at the next school, so
when we get there I'll put on your
cap and you introduce yourself as
me
and give the lecture."
Einstein continued. At the hall, the
driver gave Einstein's lecture so
wonderfully that he didn't
make any mistakes. When he
finished, he started
to leave, but one of the
professors stopped him and asked
him a question which was very
difficult.
The aim of the question was not
gaining knowledge but
embarrassing Einstein.
The driver thought fast. "The
answer to that problem is so
simple," he said, "I'm surprised you
have to ask me.
In fact, to show you just how simple
it is, I'm going to ask my driver to
come up here and answer your
question."!
Then Einstein stood up and gave an
incredible answer to the question of
that professor.
Moral of the story: No matter how
genius you pretend to be, there is
always someone who is more genius
than you despite his position
