IF
- If you can keep your head when all about you
- Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
- If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
- But make allowance for their doubting too,
- If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
- Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
- Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
- And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
- If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
- If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
- If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
- And treat those two impostors just the same;
- If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
- Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
- Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
- And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
- If you can make one heap of all your winnings
- And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
- And lose, and start again at your beginnings
- And never breath a word about your loss;
- If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
- To serve your turn long after they are gone,
- And so hold on when there is nothing in you
- Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
- If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
- Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
- If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
- If all men count with you, but none too much,
- If you can fill the unforgiving minute
- With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
- Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
- And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!
* Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?' 'That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat. 'I don't much care where —' said Alice. 'Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat
*'But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked. 'Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: 'we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.' 'How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice. 'You must be,' said the Cat, 'or you wouldn't have come here.
Grigori Perelman
I thought you might be interested in his story, if you haven't already heard about it. Not a Nobel Prize winner, but similar. --Avenue (talk) 00:22, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
Thank you, Avenue. What saddens me about this is that even in mathematics the fights are fought. For some reason it reminded me The Gypsies by Aleksandr Pushkin (strange association :)), but... The hero of the poem hoped he could find freedom, peace and happiness between the Gypsies, but then he understood that even there those could not be found. I wish you were able to read it in Russian, but here's English translation of the end of the poem:
But happiness even there is absent
Among you, poor children of Nature's breast,
And even beneath a wretched tent
Wild, torturing dreams will ruin your rest.
And under your nomadic shelters' shades
In the wilderness, calamity is unceasing,
And everywhere fateful passion invades,
And from one's fate there is no releasing.
