Real life at times is boring. You may have heard this enough. But is it true? Must you be laid flat? 
It depends on how you look at life. This bedside humorous book shows you the path to get over moments not to your liking. 
Here is a leaf from the book that contains 100 such pearls.

The Company You Keep

After he got the Nobel Prize, Einstein was busy with a lecture circuit throughout the US. Incidentally, he had a driver who had a shaggy beard and snow white unruly hair just like him. 
Every time Einstein gave a lecture, the driver would be seated in the last seat in the auditorium.
One day, while they were driving towards a college, the chauffer turned to him and said, “I have heard this lecture so many times that I could give it better than you!” 
Einstein laughed and decided to try it out at the next venue. 
The chauffer was introduced as Einstein and he proceeded to give a lecture on the theory of relativity while Einstein sat in the back row. 
Surprisingly, he spoke really well and the audience gave him an enthusiastic round of applause. 
Finally came the question and answer session. At the very outset someone asked a difficult question. 
Unhesitatingly, the driver said, “Ha! This is such a simple question that even my chauffer can answer it,” and pointed towards Einstein in the back row. 
Even a dumb person imbibes knowledge if he stays constantly with someone intelligent and knowledgeable. A cotton string used to make jasmine garland starts to smell as sweet as the flowers themselves. 

Joke apart, it is a fact that one benefits immensely from the company of people who are more experienced and more intelligent.
