"What is needed is a serious, persistent will on the part of each of us, directed to visit, use and animate the young institution frequently, perhaps at first with some sacrifice of our habits, our desires and our interests."

Baron Frigyes Kochmeister (1816-1907)

President of the BSE (1864-1900)

"As regards freedom of action, our institution desires nothing more than to do what is in the interest of the country as a whole, and to be free from any unilateral tendency, as it has been far from seeking to cultivate its own interests at the expense of the common good. "

Baron Zsigmond Kornfeld (1852-1909)

President of the BSE (1900-1909)

"Our poor mother, this dismembered Hungary is sick, seriously sick, and let us put aside all other interests, real or apparent, and keep in mind the only point of view: what is necessary, what is good for our poor, sick mother: Hungary."

Sándor Fleissig (1869-1939)

President of the BSE (1931-1939)
