Let's try to count the number of Nobel prize-winners that have emerged from scientific centres of excellence like the Weizmann Institute and Haifa's technical university, the Technion. There has to be at least 25.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think it's fair to say that the Nobel Prize is the highest honor any scientist or artist can achieve.
The Nobel Prizes are much more than awards to scholars; they are a celebration of civilization, of mankind, and of what makes humans unique - that is their intellect from which springs creativity.
Looking through the list of earlier Nobel laureates, I note a large number with whom I became acquainted and with whom I interacted during those years as they passed through Cambridge.
The Nobel Prize is without doubt the highest honour, the most coveted honour, which can be bestowed on a scientist.
Forget about Nobel prizes; they aren't really very important.
Nobel prizes are very special prizes, and it would be great to get one.
The Nobel awards should be regarded as giving recognition to this general scientific progress as well as to the individuals involved.
The great esteem in which the Nobel prizes are universally held is due to the fact that for several generations they have been given purely on scientific merit and not through lobbying and politicking. I do hope that it will stay this way, and the prizes will never be given according to the number of votes in live TV contests!
Most achievements in science are to a certain degree group efforts.
Anyone can win the Nobel Prize if the scientist works hard on his research subject.
