A nice Article. About a Mathematicia who refused Field's medal.

The article is about a guy who refused $1 million worth prize for his work. The article is like a nice book. It was so, atleast for me. One line I liked in particular.

"Perelman balked. “If they know my work, they don’t need my C.V.,” he said. “If they need my C.V., they don’t know my work.”"

I decided to refuse $1 million for my work. Pls note, I didn't say I will refuse all millions. Only $1 million. :)
