Verbatim note by Spencer MacCallum on the occasion of Heath being told that a congratulatory telegram was sent him from the Institute of Aeronautical Sciences for his 80th birthday

January 23, 1955

This mutual admiration business is a great thing. The papers are full of it. And so much of the public seems to fall for it. … The response to these invitations /to a birthday party/ shows it. If it’s a person, they all want to come a-gogging. But if it’s an idea, they all want to run away. Most of them, that is.
