Top 10 Greatest Geniuses of All Time
Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (April 15, 1452 - May 2, 1519) more commonly Leonardo da Vinci or simply Leonardo, was an Italian polymath whose areas of interest included invention, painting, sculpting, architecture, science, music, mathematics, engineering, literature, anatomy, geology, astronomy, botany, writing, history, poetry, and cartography. Greatest genius of all time. The one and only universal genius.
The man could paint with one hand and write a paper with the other AT THE SAME TIME! No one will ever come nearly as close artistically and in terms of being ahead of their time.
Albert Einstein (14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955) was a German-born theoretical physicist, widely acknowledged to be one of the greatest and most influential physicists of all time. Einstein is best known for developing the theory of relativity, but he also made important contributions to the development of the theory of quantum mechanics. Relativity and quantum mechanics are together the two pillars of modern physics. His mass–energy equivalence formula E = mc2, which arises from relativity theory, has been dubbed "the world's most famous equation". His work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to theoretical ...read more. "If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or objects." his quote suits best on him
He revolutionised the understanding of our ubiverse with his Special ( 1905 ) and General ( 1915 ) Theories of Relativity!
Why 3rd?
Must be 1st. No other chance at all.
The revolutionizer can't be replaced by anyone even in the future
He makes the world easier
Aristotle was a Greek philosopher and scientist born in the city of Stagira, Chalkidice, on the northern periphery of Classical Greece. The great Greek Philosopher, Physicist and Polymath who was the first to give an scientific explanation to the universe!
Sir Isaac Newton PRS was an English physicist and mathematician who is widely recognised as one of the most influential scientists of all time and a key figure in the scientific revolution. Interestingly enough, he was more interested in the book of Daniel than his work.
Gets the nod over DiVinci. Notice how all the top geniuses are not of our generation? Wonder why? Ha ha ha.
His 'Principia Mathematicia' is considered one of the most amazingy and brilliant examples of abstract thought.
Isaac Newton #1. Albert Einstein #2.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, baptised as Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart, was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical era, born in Salzburg. Honestly, Mozart! This far down! But more importantly, UNDERNEATH WANGER! He was a musical genius and pretty much the DEFINITION of genius
'We need not despair on mankind knowing Mozart was a man. '
Albert Einstien
'A prolific fountain of beautiful music. '

Wilhelm Richard Wagner was a German composer, theatre director, polemicist, and conductor who is primarily known for his operas. 'What for ordinary people defies understanding is the truth that one man could carry in him the totality of that design, could possibly construe from the first note to the last a coherent immensity of a complexity which defies analysis. '
Professor George Stien
'Perhaps the Greatest Genius who has ever lived. '

Johann Wolfgang Goethe (28 August 1749 – 22 March 1832) was a German writer and statesman. His body of work includes epic and lyric poetry written in a variety of metres and styles; prose and verse dramas; memoirs; an autobiography; literary and aesthetic criticism; treatises on botany, anatomy, and colour; and four novels. In addition, numerous literary and scientific fragments, more than 10,000 letters, and nearly 3,000 drawings by him exist. Great German Writer and Polymath. He had a used vocabulary of about 50,000 words! Twice Shakespeare's!
He is believed to be the last man to know all the knowledge in the world!
Genius no words for him
Nicola tesla gave us that much no.. Of important things which no one could ever gave. Others researched the things in science but Nicola Tesla invented... Surely the underrated genius
Underrated genius. How you can read this without him?
Real founder of Electricity
I would say JC Maxwell had the greatest mind of his time and the greatest scientific influence. Without his elecric and magnetic interactions, light would not have been seen as an EM Wave. Without that, Einstein would not have proved that nothing can exceed light speed. And we would not have had mass explained the way it was. Planck would not have come up with the quantised theory of light which sparked quantum mechanics, and so, no explanation of the atom after Rutherford. So Maxwell definitely gets my vote.
William Shakespeare was an English poet, playwright, and actor, widely regarded as the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. Perhaps the Greatest Writer who has ever lived!
