Marie Jahoda über Otto Neurath He [i.e. Otto Neurath] was a huge man, tall and massive with a flaming red beard. He signed all his letters with drawing an elephant – a fitting symbol. […] His joie de vivre was infectious, and he never lost it, even though he had to emigrate twice more. First to escape when the Nazis invaded Austria, welcomed by a large part of the population. He fled to the Hague where he continued his work for a few years only. When [Adolf] Hitler’s army was already at the outskirts of the town he fled in a fishing boat to England, leaving all his possessions behind. He telephoned me, explaining that he had no clothes apart from w hat he stood up in. Fortunately, a suit of Austen [Albu]’s was large enough.Marie Jahoda Albu: Reconstructions.
