A room in the Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum contains a life-like wax figure of Albert Einstein wearing a cable knit sweater. He is standing in a laboratory setting with his left hand in his trouser pocket and his right hand on his hip. A sign on the shelves behind the desk indicates he was a recipient of the Nobel Prize and gives biographical details of his life. The sign is inscribed:
Albert Einstein
"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for
tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop
questioning"
• Nobel prize winning physicist, Albert Einstein changed the way we
think about science; his publications include the theories of relativity
and the concept of mass-energy equivalence (E=mc2)
• Prompted by the rise of the Nazi Party, Einstein immigrated to America
in 1933 to take up a position at the Institute for Advanced Study
in New Jersey
• Einstein did not believe in socks. He would go without, whether
studying, sailing or even dining at the White House
