damn i wish i could be like these guys...
my two heroes, who have completely shaped the world we live in.
shakespeare - our language, our literature and our look at life
einstein - the way we think, how we see our universe
these two guys were so influential, because they didn't accept what had been given to them. they went out and started fresh. did it by themselves. einstein looked past the accepted way that the universe works, and found new things. shakespeare wrote so many plays, shaped our language. how? he created words! he created over 20,000 new words. before Romeo and Juliet, romance wasn't seen as a suitable theme for a tragedy and his use of soliloquies to explore characters minds was not something really done much in his time. before him there was no standardization of the english language, but after his plays became popular, it led to a more standard way of speaking and writing.
these guys are amazing. i wish i could be like them. to be recognised for what you have done in the highest possible way. and i dont mean an oscar, a nobel prize, a pulitzer or any other reward... i mean to have every single person on earth know exactly who you are and what you did. that is the best reward of all...
