Abel Prize web site

Reload it for a new quotation (in the upper right hand corner). I reloaded at least thirty times without getting a duplicate quotation.

I like this one from Richard Feynman's Nobel lecture (11 December 1965) the best:

We have a habit in writing articles published in scientific journals to make the work as finished as possible, to cover up all the tracks, to not worry about the blind alleys or describe how you had the wrong idea first, and so on. So there isn't any place to publish, in a dignified manner, what you actually did in order to get to do the work.
