Likely origin: Relativity: The Special and the General Theory

About this quote

This page records the wording "of the actual objects of physical reality. Physical objects are…," which centers on actual, objects, physical. A concrete trail points toward Einstein, but the exact English form remains unconfirmed; the page therefore labels it as attributed to him while preserving its science and honesty context.

When to use it

  • Use "of the actual objects of physical reality. Physical objects are…" in a science discussion, then ask which concrete claim the wording makes.
  • Compare its treatment of actual with objects in a lesson, essay, or editorial note before drawing a conclusion.
  • Before sharing it as Einstein's exact words, display the attribution caveat and follow the evidence link recorded on the page.
