No, Einstein did not say to be a loner.

I'm looking for help understanding why Einstein did not say to be a loner. I recently heard a quote attributed to him about being a loner, but I'm not sure if it's accurate.

The saying is actually attributed to Confucius, who said "The man who removes a mountain begins by carrying away small stones." It is unclear where the misquote originated, but it is often used to encourage people to take small steps towards their goals.
