Description

The Diaries are more vividly self-revealing than I could have anticipated. The running lament over wasted time, the self-reproach for clumsiness and evasiveness, the many minor illnesses (and only one cancelled lecture because of them) all came as a surprise to me, as did his keen observations, some kind, some unkind, on the people he encountered - great numbers of people. It was likewise a revelation to see so many of his ideas in the process of taking shape.
