节录自 HOW TO BECOME A BAD THEORETICAL PHYSICIST by Gerard 't Hooft //Here is how to become a bad theorist: Compare yourself with Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, Paul Dirac, or other celebrities in theoretical physics, and r each a conclusion in favor of yourself. Note that good theoreticians do not cons ider these famous physicists as saints; none of them were infallible, but the fe w instances where they could be corrected are well-known by historians of scienc e, and do not have any effect on modern physics. You may consider the option of connecting your work with mystery topics such as telepathy and consciousness. Make outrageous claims of having solved long standi ng problems. Of course, you expect that you will become famous, but unfortunatel y, only a few really good theoretical physicists have equations and effects name d after them. This is because colleagues recognize their importance and since th ey want to give names to equations and effects anyway, they bestow the discovere rs with that honor. The bad theoretical physicist, in anticipation, names his own equations and effects, and even his entire theories, after himself right awa y. The impudence to attach your own name to whatever you claim to have discover ed is considered improper in science, and in practice it betrays amateurism and incompetence. If a good theoretician refers to an equation to which colleagues have attached his/her own name, he/she uses a different description if available .// --
