To me there is something superbly symbolic in the fact that an astronaut sent up as assistant to a series of computers found that he worked more accurately and more intelligently than they. Inside the capsule man is still in charge.

Ford used to come to work in a big car with two Admiral's flags on each side of the car. His assistant would be there with his accordion playing Hail to the Chief.

I don't like to work with assistants. I'm already one too many the camera alone would be enough.
