That quote has been circulating the Internet for years, but and original source for it has never been identified, and there’s no record of Einstein having said despite Einstein’s quotes being archived in multiple searchable databases.

Some have noted that the quote is suspiciously close to a fictional Einstein quote that appeared in the 1995 movie “Powder.”
