Interview met Klaas Robers

Ik heb dit interview met Klaas Robers, uitvinder van o.a. de CD-ROM, afgenomen toen ik in de redactie van de Physicus zat (het kwartaalblad van de studievereniging VvTP) Zeker als ingenieur, of zoals Klaas Robers zegt: 'mensen, wiens beroep het is ingenieus te zijn', zijn er vele wijze lessen uit te halen.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.” Theodore Roosevelt
