Things to remember

Here, I collect quotes that somehow resonate with me, advices to remember and everything else worth writing down. Some of it is probably in Czech.

• "Základem všeho je vždycky lidské svědomí. Záchrana tohoto lidského světa není nikde jinde než v lidském srdci, v lidském rozmyslu, v lidské pokoře a v lidské odpovědnosti."
• "Beggars, especially genteel beggars, ought never to show themselves, but to ask for charity through the newspapers. One can love one's neighbours in the abstract, or even at a distance, but at close quarters it's almost impossible."
• Four golden lessons for young scientists by S. Weinberg
  • Pick up what you need as you go along.
  • Spend time on what is messy, not on well-explored things.
  • It is okay to waste time on unfruitful research.
  • Study history of science.
