What is the meaning of this quote by Albert Einstein 'The eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility'?

The universe is so incredibly complex, from the quantum spins of atoms to the inner workings of a cell to the vastness of space, by all rights we should have no ability to comprehend such complexity. Yet we, as a species, have been able to research, to learn, and eventually to comprehend a great many complex natural phenomena. This, then, is the greatest mystery of all--that the infinite mysteries of the universe can even begin to be comprehensible. (Professor of Chemistry, Pomona College, personal opinion).

Why is albert Einstein is called late blomer?

Some people show an incredible talent prior to age 18; and, in some cases (such as Mozart), prior to age ten. Amongst these Carl Gauss (corrected his father's math work at age three), Andre Ampere (wrote a treatise on conic sections at 13), Blaise Pascal (wrote a treatise on vibrations at nine) Ruth Lawrence (came in first in college math entrance exams -- at age ten), and Enrico Fermi (wrote an essay for his college entrance that his examiner said would have made an excellent doctoral thesis). Einstein, on the other hand, showed intelligence but no extraordinary talent until the age of 26.
