I have decided not to give interviews and not to hold conversations with journalists who deal with the political activity of my wife rather than my activity as university teacher and researcher.

They see me all the time at Bayreuth and think I only like Wagner's music, and it's not true.

I will not talk to journalists about anything that does not concern my work as a scientist or lecturer.

I was studying chemistry, and this is a physically hard job because you are in the laboratory, you work hard, and you come home in the late afternoon or in the evening and you always needed a break.
