“I am never forget the day I first meet the great Lobachevsky. In one word he told me secret of success in mathematics. Plagiarize!
“Plagiarize
Let no one else’s work evade your eyes
Remember why the good Lord made your eyes
So don’t shade your eyes
But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize
Only be sure always to call it please ‘research’”
Nice Tom Lehrer reference.
Yeah, I’m that old.
Tom Lehrer would be ostracised today by the PC crew.
