Because he was only half human, he at times felt prejudice and was an outsider trying to fit in. Anyone who is different in appearance or philosophy can identify. He was an intelligent, logical scientist and seemed emotionally detached. Those of us who favor the scientific approach over the non-scientific can identify. His friendships were based on shared and mutual respect.
Because he was half human, he understood the human condition yet could give an outsider's perspective. All of us could benefit from a perspective different than our own. He said, "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of a few.'' His wish to us was, "Live long and prosper."
