Intuition Sequence:
"people are still looking ahead and missing it. They have a sensitivity, but they’re not using it. In other words they have the competence that I began to develop. But there is always a significance when Nature’s trying to tell you something. And I must still find out what she is trying to tell you: is that something clear?
“I also cited in regard to intuition that in the '20’s, by 1928, by the time of the great crash, as people were very dubious about things, there was really an elation on the part of the academic scientist and engineer in which he said-- there really is no mystery. He spoke about his very atheism itself; essentially a sort of rationalization of the political viewpoint in Russia where they were trying to get rid of all the religions. Therefore people were quite deliberately taking this negative position and the word intuition was a dirty word. But I kept holding to my intuition despite the fact that it was considered a dirty word. Let’s put it this way: I lost quite a lot of people whom we would say were pretty hot people, who just couldn’t go along with that kind of thought.”
