My countrymen have the right to shake my hand and talk to me if they so wish. Don't forget that their support and their reading of my works is what brought me the Nobel prize. ↗

The Nobel Prize is given as a personal award but it also honors the field of research in which I have worked and it also honors my students and colleagues. ↗
I am the same person I was before receiving the Nobel Prize. I work with the same regularity, I have not modified my habits, I have the same friends. ↗
