"Aage Bohr expressed the same point to me the last time I talked to him. He just couldn’t understand why there were all these conferences—conference after conference—on EPR, when it is just the way it works. It is just exactly the wrong thing to be asking about. There is a conference coming up in Finland in August with some people I’d love to talk to, but I’ve written them to say that I’m not going. If you keep trying to pull apples off the apple tree, after a while it doesn’t do. I hope that I am not being too propagandistic in speaking of the idea that when we see it all it will be so simple we’ll all say, ‘How stupid we’ve been all this time!’ We’ve got to look for the right word, the right image. So you try one word for a day, for a week, for a month, or for a year, and then you give it up and try another one."
