Methinks thou dost protest too much

Sometime after World War I, Albert Einstein became an outspoken supporter of Zionism. This made him highly unpopular in certain circles. His theories came under attack; an anti-Einstein organization was set up. One man was convicted of inciting others to murder Einstein (for which he was fined 6 dollars).

When a book was published entitled 100 Authors Against Einstein, he retorted, "If I were wrong, then one would have been enough!"
