诗人爱因斯坦

爱因斯坦

众所周知，爱因斯坦是最著名的物理学家，他把毕生的精力献给了科学。可是爱因斯坦也是人，也经历着喜怒哀乐的感情波动。

例如，他每天收到大量的来信，向他提出五花八门的奇怪问题，但凡是人见之都烦恼，爱因斯坦也不例外，他恳求大伙儿（fellow men）放过他，不要再寄手稿和邮包给他了，不打扰他平静的生活。

对此，他作诗一首《To My Dear Fellow Men》（见附录A）。

科学不涉足，没关系，但有诗抵达。

附录A：《To My Dear Fellow Men》

Manuscripts of endless weight

Some quite good, some second rate

The mail does bring me every day

Without a rest or long delay

I am not a wicked man

And want to help all I can

Everyone whom cruel fate

Has selected to create

Science and philosophy

And riddles of psychology;

Cure - alls for humanity

And, of course, much poetry

Each one thinks that only he

Had his parcel sent to me

And his rage tums to a tirade

If my answer is delayed

O, my dear man, do admit

That here is a close limit

To the bit of intellect

Which is up there in the head

To those who choose to persevere

Let me whisper in their ear:

Oh Holy Florian, great Saint!

Please spare my house, let others faint!

This little prayer I recite

With deep devotion every night

                    Albert Einstein, 1953
