The First Words of Einstein

are "Die Suppe ist zu heiss." (The soup is too hot.).

Little Einstein hadn't spoken a word before that, and when his parents asked him why, little Einstein answered, ""Bisher war Alles in Ordnung." (Until now everything was in order.)"

I would have more faith in this legend if this had been Dirac (of course, he wasn't German), but still, this goes to show what a legend Einstein is.
