I was ready to accept the philosophy that the Party is right and that in the coming struggle you could not permit yourself any doubts after the party had made a decision.

The last time when I handed over information was in February or March 1949.

I joined the Communist Party because I felt I had to be in some organization.

I was a student in Germany when Hitler came to power.

Finally Germany's attack on Russia seemed to confirm that Russia was not shirking and was prepared to carry out a foreign policy with the risk of war with Germany.

There is nobody I know by name who is concerned with collecting information for the Russian authorities. There are people whom I know by sight whom I trusted with my life.

The Communist Party said that I must finish my studies because after the revolution in Germany people would be required with technical knowledge to take part in the building of the Communist Germany.

Before I joined the project most of the English people with whom I had made personal contacts were left wing and affected to some degree or other by the same kind of philosophy.

I was in the underground until I left Germany.

Since coming to Harwell I have met English people of all kinds, and I have come to see in many of them a deep rooted firmness which enables them to lead a decent way of life.

In the post war period I began again to have my doubts about Russian policy.

Don't do anything stupid, they said. Well, it's now or never, I suppose, and stupidity and confidence run a fine line.

Death is Beautiful!

You’re noble enough, Baudelaires. That’s all we can ask for in this world.

Those who love, friends and lovers, know that love is not only a blinding flash, but also a long and painful struggle in the darkness for the realization of definitive recognition and reconciliation.

One sweet world Around this star is spinning One sweet world And in her breath I'm swimming And here we will rest in peace

Pine nuts pound for pound are more expensive than most varieties of smoked salmon. There I said it.

We need balanced programs, balanced priorities on the fiscal side

You're one of those guys who can make a party just by leaving it. It's a great gift.

You have to just accept your body. You may not love it all the way, but you just have to be comfortable with it, comfortable with knowing that that's your body.

I do love cricket - it's so very English.
