Abstract
Now in the twilight of my scientific career, when the original enthusiasm and energy have considerably diminished, I, more than ever, long for a place where I can devote myself without time pressures to the serene study of nature, leaving aside the haste for publication, the concern over funds or the excruciating bureaucracy. Many words in this text have been devoted to advice how to achieve that, how to navigate the system without becoming stuck in the bureaucratic closed loop.
