Angkor, often described as a "lost" city, was never forgotten by the local Khmer people. The idea of its "discovery" by the French in the 19th century is more myth than reality. While French explorers brought global attention to Angkor, locals always knew and revered the site.

Jean-Pierre Serre (Fields Medal 1954) debunked the 'curse of the Fields Medal' myth: 97% of his papers were published during the 70 years (!) after he won it.

Jean-Pierre Serre exemplifies the importance of inner drive and passion in achieving excellence. His dedication to mathematics, driven by a deep love for the subject rather than a quest for accolades or external awards, is an inspiring reminder that true fulfillment and success come from following one's passions.

For individuals like Jean-Pierre Serre, external awards become secondary to their intrinsic motivation and passion for their work. Their primary satisfaction comes from the pursuit of knowledge and the joy of discovery, making external recognition a mere byproduct rather than the goal.
