Quotes by George McVittie in Time One

I well remember the day when Eddington, rather shamefacedly, showed me a letter from Lemaitre which reminded Eddington of the solution to the problem which Lemaitre had already given. Eddington confessed that, though he had seen Lemaitre’s paper in 1927, he had completely forgotten about it until that moment.
