Why not just provide both quotes?
Originally posted by Dasahehehe. so you admit to changing einstein's quote. that's called fraud.
It is common knowledge with anyone who is well read with Albert Einstein quotes that he has stated "When I read the Bhagavad Gita (Veda) and reflect about how God created the universe everything seems superfluous".
By adding the word Veda I have cleverly included this quote along with the original quote about owing a lot to Indian,s.
By adding one word ...[text shortened]... mething for to complain.
FMF you are the worst offender.........simply dishonest mentality.

here is a real einstein quote for you:
