“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. <br class="br">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.
“The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it.”
Molière (1622–1673) French playwright and actor
“We cannot overcome obstacles with ignorance.”
Stephen Jay Gould (1941–2002) American evolutionary biologist
