Leopold Infeld Quotes

• Einstein uses his concept of God more often than a Catholic priest. Once I asked him:
  'Tomorrow is Sunday. Do you want me to come to you, so we can work?'
  'Why not?'
  'Because I thought perhaps you would like to rest on Sunday.'
  Einstein settled the question by saying with a loud laugh: 'God does not rest on Sunday either.'

• It must be good to die in Toronto. The transition between life and death would be continuous, painless and scarcely noticeable in this silent town. I dreaded the Sundays and prayed to God that if he chose for me to die in Toronto, he would let it be on a Saturday afternoon to save me from one more Toronto Sunday.
