    To be very German, here is my favourite Max Planck quote: Scientific Progress marches on one funeral at a time.

    Perhaps it was meant like that. And the old guard that disliked his papers is now dead and progress has been made.

      Probably more in context that old professors cling to their contributions as a self worth while young people bring new ideas. Still nice one.
