EINSTEIN'S THEORY OF HAPPINESS REVEALED - Gimbiya - 10-23-2017 Einstein's theory of happiness revealed: Note physicist gave to a Japanese courier 95 years ago telling him 'a quiet and modest life brings joy' goes up for auction Two notes were given by Einstein to a courier in Tokyo in lieu of a tip in 1922 The physicist wrote inspirational messages on the notes giving life tips The notes will go on sale in Jerusalem on Tuesday - 95 years later By Joe Sheppard For Mailonline Lost note: Scientist Albert Einstein A note Albert Einstein gave to a courier in Tokyo 95 years ago, briefly describing his theory on happy living, will go on sale this week. The physicist gave the messages to a courier in lieu of a tip while on a lecture tour of Japan in 1922.    At the time Einstein had recently been informed that he was to receive the Nobel Prize for physics, and his fame outside of scientific circles was growing. A Japanese courier arrived at the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo to deliver Einstein a message. The courier either refused to accept a tip, in line with local practice, or Einstein had no small change available. Either way, Einstein didn't want the messenger to leave empty-handed, so he wrote him two notes by hand in German, according to the seller, a relative of the messenger. 'Maybe if you're lucky those notes will become much more valuable than just a regular tip,' Einstein told the messenger, according to the seller, a resident of the German city of Hamburg who wished to remain anonymous. One note, on the stationary of the Imperial Hotel Tokyo, says that 'a quiet and modest life brings more joy than a pursuit of success bound with constant unrest.' The other, on a blank piece of paper, simply reads: 'where there's a will, there's a way.' It is impossible to determine if the notes were a reflection of Einstein's own musings on his growing fame, said Roni Grosz, the archivist in charge of the world's largest Einstein collection, at Jerusalem's Hebrew University. The note has surfaced 95 years later and is now up for auction While the notes, previously unknown to researchers, hold no scientific value, they may shed light on the private thoughts of the great physicist whose name has become synonymous with genius, according to Grosz. 'What we're doing here is painting the portrait of Einstein - the man, the scientist, his effect on the world - through his writings,' said Grosz. 'This is a stone in the mosaic.' The two notes will go on sale on Tuesday at the Winner's auction house in Jerusalem, alongside other items including two letters Einstein wrote in later years.  Source: Mailonline
