By the time he died in 1955, Albert Einstein was
considered the smartest man alive.
Expelled from high school, unable to find a teaching job and
stuck working at a government patent office, Albert Einstein
nonetheless went on to become one of the greatest scientific
thinkers of all time. He ended up using his free time at the Swiss
Patent Office to develop his groundbreaking theories on the nature
of time and space. Although his early theories paved the way for
the atomic bomb, Einstein later became a peace activist, saying, "I
know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World
War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." By the time he died
in 1955, he was considered not only the most important scientist
but the smartest man of his time.
