When:
A. He admitted having little math and no ability in non-Euclidean
geometry.
B. He always relied on someone else to do his math.
C. He denied getting it from Hilbert.
D. He never said who he got it from.

He stole them from Hilbert.

Here are two other versions of the quote;
"Every street boy in Gottingen knows as much elliptical geometry as
Einstein. But the equations are his."
"Every boy in the streets of Gottingen understands more about
four-dimensional geometry than Einstein. Yet, in spite of that, Einstein
did the work and not the mathematicians." — David Hilbert
There is only one way to interpret this. That is Hilbert pointing out
that obviously Einstein did not invent the field equations because he
could not.
