Notes and topics

Norbert Wiener writes: "I met Santayana at Russell's room Wednesday, and had a pleasant talk with him. It seemed good to meet an American...." "I am hating this country more every day, and the people are such icebergs that I wonder how India can maintain its climate, now that it is a British possession." "My course-work under Mr. Russell is all right, but I am completely discouraged about the work I am doing under him privately." "Russell seemed very dissatisfied, not only with my views, but with my philosophical ability, and with me personally."
