قصة حياته أشبه بالروايات أكثر من الروايات نفسها، الكاتب الذي صعد إلى قمة النجاح والشهرة، عُرف بحس فكاهةٍ لا مثيل له، كتب أعمالاً أدبيةً بالغة الروعة، وعاش حياةً متميزةً جعلته لفترةٍ من الزمن من أهم فناني عصره، عاش حقيقةً الحلم الذي يحلم به أي كاتبٍ أو فنان، لكن الحياة لا تدوم على حال وكان لا بد للحظ أن يخذله ذات يوم، وقد خذله في الأصدقاء، فسقط بعد ذلك سقطةٍ غير مسبوقةٍ بسبب فضائح كبرى وحياةٍ مشينة.

Have you ever used your imagination to solve a problem? When Albert Einstein was young, he was fascinated by the way magnetism made a compass work. As an adult, he used thought experiments to solve some of the universe's greatest mysteries. Einstein loved to think about math and science. He worked for a while at a patent office, but his mind wasn't focused on inventions. Instead, he thought about the universe. In 1905, Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity solved questions that scientists had grappled with for hundreds of years.

A possible genius, a smidgen of madness, a twist of science, and an invention that very nearly changed the world - all collide in a giddy, unbelievably true mystery set in turn-of-the-century Paris.

على خطى والده الشيخ ناصيف اليازجي، عشق ابراهيم كتابة الشعر منذ صباه وقد لازمه هذا العشق حتى ريعان شبابه... ويقال إن إبراهيم، قد تتلمذ على يدي والده، الذي أخذ عنه العلم وسعة الأدب والثقافة والتفقه في اللغة، فضلا على حفظه للقرآن الكريم، باعتبار أن والده، الشيخ ناصيف، كان من حفظة كتاب الله العزيز، مما مكنه من الغوص في بحر اللغة واكتساب فصاحة لم تكن عند أحد غيره من أدباء عصره، رغم أنه كان مسيحيا.

لم تكن نهضة اللغة العربية والاهتمام بها حكرا على المفكرين المسلمين، فقد كان لفرسان التجديد اللغوي المسيحي دور بارز في تهذيب اللغة العربية الفصحى ونشرها والمحافظة عليها، في القرن التاسع عشر، الذي شهد انحطاطا كبيرا للغة الضاد وتدهورها وتراجع استعمالها، أمام الإقبال على اللغات الأجنبية، خاصة الإنجليزية والفرنسية، في ظل صعود أوروبا وهيمنتها على العالم العربي.

When it comes to scientists that have made their mark in the world, none are perhaps more famous than Albert Einstein.

Instead, this was a man that was dedicated to not only his profession, but also the concept of pacifism, something that most people are unaware of.

She found a way to showcase her gifts in 1951 when CBS gave her the chance to star in a sitcom.
