They would meet at Albert’s apartment,
where discussions started with math and
physics. Soon talks expanded to cover other
things. Maurice Solovine, for example,
introduced many philosophical topics, which
Albert found fascinating. The Olympia Academy
lasted for only two years, since Habicht and
Solovine had both moved out of Bern by
1905. But the three men would remain
friends for the rest of their lives. Perhaps
more importantly, Albert claimed in the years
ahead that his discussions with the Academy
helped to form many of the ideas that would
lead him to change the world.
Another important development in Albert’s
life as a scientist was that, around this time, he
began to write and publish scientific papers.
