“Research is a matter of overcoming obstacles.”

Alexander Dalgarno (1928–2015) British physicist

Interviewed by Harry Kreisler, February 28, 2003. In Conversations with History http://globetrotter.berkeley.edu/people3/Dalgarno/dalgarno-con0.html. Institute of International Studies, UC Berkeley.
Context: Research is a matter of overcoming obstacles. That's what research is about. There are problems. There are difficulties. It's hard to make sense of a collection of information or whatever. Obstacles are the nature of research. Maybe that's why some people give up. There's always an obstacle. You overcome one to find there's another one.
