Note: When Einstein died on April 18, 1955 he left a piece of writing ending in an unfinished sentence. These were his last words: * In essence, the conflict that exists today is no more than an old-style struggle for power, once again presented to mankind in semireligious trappings. The difference is that, this time, the development of atomic power has imbued the struggle with a ghostly character; for both parties know and admit that, should the quarrel deteriorate into actual war, mankind is doomed. Despite this knowledge, statesmen in responsible positions on both sides continue to employ the well-known technique of seeking to intimidate and demoralize the opponent by marshaling superior military strength. They do so even though such a policy entails the risk of war and doom. Not one statesman in a position of responsibility has dared to pursue the only course that holds out any promise of peace, the course of supranational security, since for a statesman to follow such a course would be tantamount to political suicide.

"Last week Professor Einstein trudged no more in the grounds of his beloved institute. A lingering gall-bladder infection sent him to the hospital.

Revisiting this question from 3 years ago http://www.funtrivia.com/askft/Question84315.html has produced not only the fact that his last spoken words were unintelligible to the lone attendant (and therefore, according to the "if a tree falls in the forest and no one is there" riddle, there were no last words), but his last written words as well. Yay! Interesting that they were proposing supranationalism. I wonder how someone can die in his sleep of AAA? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdominal_aortic_aneurysm#Signs_and_symptoms Jun 27 10, 5:06 PM
