Mr. Wolf and I were having a conversation about something this morning and I mentioned that quote about doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results as being applicable to the situation. I couldn’t remember to whom the quote is attributed. Turns out it’s Albert Einstein, who (supposedly) said, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

Rather a timely quote, I thought… for the situation we were discussing, as well as politically.

I thought it was kind of funny to discover it was an Einstein quote, because just yesterday I picked up this book for Mr. Wolf at the university bookstore: The Einstein Scrapbook.

I paged through it quickly but will wait for him to be done with it before I read through the entire thing. It looks really interesting, though, with photos and personal letters.
