|content=I‘m considering telling the story but I’ve never felt comfortable telling it in public. We oddly resent those who rescue us; I‘ll never know if I could have done it alone. Knowing me, he essentially tricked me into accepting help to spare me the wound to my pride. A great man. 🙏

|content=Sometimes people take pride in being self taught. But in my case this is defensive.

I would have been honored to have been a part of a chain. I just never found my mentor in time. '''Isadore Singer''' should have been my advisor.

|content=If you aren’t lucky enough to find a master, as Herbie says, who can lead you to your own voice, you need to be your own advisor and there are so many problems you‘ll have to overcome because you are always living in your own blind spot.

It’s an inferior road. But it’s possible.

|content=I don’t know that I’ve spoken publicly about it like this. So I’m trying it out. This is real Kung Fu Panda stuff. 

It bothers me that [[Raoul Bott]] is listed as my supervisor on my Wikipedia entry. He wasn’t.

What he was, was my hero who rescued me. A far more impressive role.

|content=Who's the most knowledgeable person you can think of? Think of "knowledgeable" as 2D space: it factors in both horizontal breadth across a wide range of topics and vertical depth within those topics. Who are some people whose knowledge covers an extraordinary amount of 2D space?
