"I always remember one time, Bochner, von Neumann, and I were in a room, I guess Johnny's room in the Institute. Bochner was presenting material to us, and he got stuck. He hemmed and hawed for a while, and he said "If you'll wait a minute, I know where the book is that has the proof of this. I'll run upstairs and get it." Johnny said, "Don't do that, I don't know what book it's in, but I 'II prove it for you." And he did."
