Describing the time where Richard Feynman arrived at Los Alamos to work on the atomic bomb project, when they had just finished building the dormitory:

"At last the dormitory was built. I went down to the place where rooms where assigned, and they said, you can pick your room now. You know what I did? I looked to see where the girls' dormitory was, and then I picked a room that looked right across — though later I discovered a big tree was growing right in front of the window of that room."

Thanks! With a bit of context, it's even better, IMHO!

Scientists can be pervs, too, you know. Besides, with a mind like that, I'd not begrudge him a peek in my window. *smart is sexy*
