Quote by Albert Einstein

If you can't explain something simply, you don't undderstand it.

If you can't explain something simply, you don't undderstand

Summary

This quote emphasizes the importance of simplicity in understanding. It suggests that true comprehension of a concept or idea is best demonstrated when one can explain it in a straightforward and concise manner. If someone struggles to simplify their explanation or resorts to complex terms and convoluted language, it implies a lack of profound understanding. By distilling complex information into simpler terms, it not only reflects a deeper comprehension but also aids in effective communication with others.
