You're a dilettante, a womanizer, a suspected Communist... I'm a New Deal Democrat. I said "suspected." Unstable, theatrical, egotistical, neurotic... Nothing good, no? Not even "he's brilliant, but..." Well, brilliance is taken for granted in your circle, so no. No, the only person who had anything good to say was Richard Tolman. Tolman thinks you have integrity, but he also strikes me as a guy who knows more about science than people. Yet here you are. You don't take much on trust. I don't take anything on trust.

You're a physicist, you pick and choose rules? Or do you use the discipline to channel your energies into progress? I like a little wiggle room. Do you always tow the party line? I like my wiggle room too.

Because if it can put us ahead again, the President of the United States needs to know about it. (scoffs) And if the Russians know about it already, from a spy at Los Alamos, then we've gotta get going. There's no proof there was a spy at Los Alamos. Robert.
