"We were told: no paper can be written or published, no conference delivered without Elena Ceaușescu’s name appearing in first place. We never saw her, we never heard from her at any time during our research or afterward. She never even acknowledged our existence. We were producing papers with words which, we knew, she could not pronounce, let alone understand."
