About this Quote

This quote by Albert Einstein speaks with the idea that Americans are typically viewed as materialistic and focused solely on cash. Einstein is suggesting that this is an incorrect and unreasonable characterization of Americans, even if it is often perpetuated by Americans themselves. He is stressing that there is more to Americans than just their pursuit of cash. He is most likely suggesting that Americans can a lot more than simply chasing after dollars, which they ought to be given more credit for their capacity. He is also likely recommending that Americans ought to be more mindful of how they represent themselves and their culture to the rest of the world. This quote talks to the idea that Americans ought to be seen as more than just dollar chasers, and that they should be offered the regard and recognition they deserve.
