He was quoting the exclamation attributed to Archimedes, who is said to have cried out "Eureka! eureka!" (I have found it! I have found it!), Eureka is Greek for "I have found it". Archimedes said it when he discovered how to use water displacement to test the purity of gold.

Albert Einstein did not say "eureka." This phrase is commonly associated with the Greek mathematician Archimedes, who reportedly exclaimed it upon discovering a method to determine the purity of a gold object.
