John’s 1994 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences acceptance address:
“Thank you. I've always believed in numbers and the equations and logics that lead to reason. But after a lifetime of such pursuits, I ask…
What truly is logic?
Who decides reason?
My quest has taken me through the physical, the metaphysical, the delusional -- and back. And I have made the most important discovery of my career, the most important discovery of my life: It is only in the mysterious equations of love that any logic or reasons can be found. I'm only here tonight because of you (wife, Alicia). You are the reason I am. You are all my reasons. Thank you.”
