Fresh in my mind after reading two bios of Feynman, is when he, a newly minted PhD from Princeton, arrives at Los Alamos and tells Hans Bethe his idea is stupid and can’t possibly work.

When Niels Bohr was on a visit to Princeton, he wanted young Feynman's personal input, because he knew Feynman would tell the truth rather than be intimidated into agreeing with every word.
