  4. Anecdote A • As Einstein was a late talker, his parents were worried. At last, at the supper table one night, he broke his silence to say, "The soup is too hot.“ Greatly relieved, his parents asked why he had never said a word before. Albert replied, "Because up to now everything was in order."

  5. Anecdote B • "When I was young I found out that the big toe always ends up making a hole in a sock," Einstein once recalled. "So I stopped wearing socks."
