Quote of the Day | 0829

Look at the all the programs of the European Union or of Nato. In these bureaucratic institutions scientific collaborations are goals in themselves. The more partners you find in more different countries the higher your chances are of getting their support.

If you fall in this bureaucratic trap and take all these collaboration requests seriously you will end up spending your scientific life in restaurants all over Europe negotiating with local operators who have given up doing science a long time ago.
