Quotation for Saturday

I really like this line by Albert Einstein (1879-1955), better known as a physicist than a philosopher; but then, is there really a difference?

"Great spirits have always found violent
opposition from mediocrities. The latter
cannot understand it when a man does
not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary
prejudices but honestly and courageously
uses his intelligence."
