In our time, his good name has been restored and is not in doubt, and his memory has been immortalized in many different ways. But the losses incurred by humanity due to the humiliation and death of such an outstanding mind, no one will compensate – it is impossible. It remains only to remember and not allow it in the future.
Let’s hope that we will still hear about the new successes of the grandson of the inhabitants of Belaya Tserkov – of course, far from us, but who is to blame? Things are only treasured when they’ve disappeared. We must at least remember about such people and live so that they do not leave us.

The memory of this outstanding Ukrainian is honored enough in Ukraine, and it is wonderful! It is a pity, of course, that he did not publish his work two months earlier – maybe then he would have won the first Nobel Prize in physics. But making a great discovery is more important than fussing about priorities…
The day after the death of the composer Arnold Schoenberg said, “Music was for him the air he breathed, the food that nourished him, the drink that refreshed… His works were a contribution not only to American music, but also to music of the whole world”
