There is no other way, the only way we can ever make these institutions attractive for those who are new to come in every year and participate in that sawing of branches on which someone sits. That is to say, which I said before was actually not only the success of physics but the success of human reason. - If we actually stay open to the strength of reason and try over and over again to the extent possible, then we are actually successful ...
