For many years, Richard did not accept any prize for his work. His only motivation was to understand and learn more about the mysteries of life, to distinguish between belief and knowledge and to find concrete solutions useful to society. Finally he was happy that thanks to these awards the work and the efforts of his colleagues have been recognized
