"When I am in the company of scientists, I feel like a shabby curate who has strayed by mistake into a drawing room full of dukes."
"It's frightening how easy it is to commit murder in America. Just a drink too much. I can see myself doing it. In England, one feels all the social restraints holding one back. But here, anything can happen."
