One of these unsourced quotes attributed to Einstein is:
"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm
not sure about the former."

A Google search shows that among the dozens of sites giving Einstein as
the author of the quote, there is one that gives a source - for John
Dryden:
Source: Cymon and Iphigenia (l. 107)
