Richard Ernst
" I am not surprised that they show no intention to follow in my footsteps, although if I had a second chance myself, I would certainly try to repeat my present career. "

Richard Ernst
" I became almost immediately fascinated by the possibilities of trying out all conceivable reactions with them, some leading to explosions, others to unbearable poisoning of the air in our house, frightening my parents. "

Richard Ernst

Richard Ernst
" I recognized that teaching and research institutions vitally depend on the involvement of active scientists also in management functions. "
