What was that one quote about Einstein's brain?

“I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.”― Stephen Jay Gould, The Panda's Thumb: More Reflections in Natural History

that's what did it for me.

Oh yeah, that's a powerful one. So much talent has been wasted and never given a chance to shine.
