Klaus Fuchs Physicist Quotations

I went first to France and then to England where I studied and at the same time I tried to make a serious study of the basic Marxist philosophy.

Shortly afterwards my father told me that he might be going into the Eastern Zone of Germany. At that time my own mind was closer to his than it had ever been before, because he also believed that they are at least trying to build a new world.

Since that time I have had continuous contact with the persons who were completely unknown to me, except that I knew they would hand whatever information I gave them to the Russian authorities.

I had therefore, no hesitation in giving all the information I had, even though occasionally I tried to concentrate mainly on giving information about the results of my own work.

I think the one thing that most stands out is that my father always did what he believed to be the right thing to do and he always told us that we had to go our own way even if he disagreed.

My argument was that we could not stop Hitler by cooperating with other bourgeois parties but that only a united working class could stop him.
